I voted for the Black Widow but I also love the Mossie.

The me-110 is just as doable and has more of an ugly beauty look. plus all the different schemes such as the early war and nightfighter versions make it a wonderful choice. Ram I will let you be my gunner...lol

Although it will never have a chance in hell, the P-61 has been a favorite of mine since I was a little kid and would
be awesome in 1:18 scale. Why o why can't I have Pickel's skill! ;-)

B-25, He 111, P-61 etc would be just too big in 1/18 to be seriously considered.

Only two realistic options for me. Me 110 and Mosquito

Mosquito all the way. :D

Fast, graceful, and beautiful. And could fulfill multiple missions.

Doesn't get much better than this. 8)

Really tough to decide between the Mossie and B-25

If money, space, practicality of production, etc is not an issue I would go with the B-25

but voted for the beautiful Mossie as a more realistically choice

I dig the love for the rest, they're great choices too :)

Mosquito should be the most straight forward/least complicated...No moving gun turrets,
gear could be optional position versus retractable, lots of schemes...
By the way, the picture on Corgi's 1/32 Mosquito box...Could it be close to 1/18th scale?
How about one of you "scale aficionados"?

I agree, although it came in second, it would be much easier to build but it would require alot of resin...

The heck with logical, least complicated, easier to make, money, space, practicality etc.,...etc.,

1:18 brats want what they want, we don't care how they do it, they just need to get it done, or we'll continue to whine and throw a tantrum. :lol:
