Small Scale Military Headquarters

Ok we are narrowing it down. 32 guys voted . I think that is the amount of guys who activly post maybe 40 I really don't know.
But here are the quarters. Next will be semi then the finals. I wonder what the consensess will be for the number one ?

Speak up guys this is what you want this is what you get. Reminds me of an old Punk rock song.

Matthew, from one Louisiana guy to another.........P-39 please! How cool would it look with its tricycle gear, rear mounted engine. Cockpit doors, just one great looking plane.

I'm with Sabrefan on this one. A P-39 would be almost as good as some fresh hot cornbread.

HE-162 for me

One of my favs Paul that is for sure. Then again I only put up the ones that I wanted . Of course having every single WW2 fighter would be a dream come true. But that would never happen. Plus were in the heck would you put them all.

All great choices here, but I too would love an Airacobra....P-39.

That is true Matthew, I have no idea where I would put them all. But, I would find some room for an Airacobra!

Going with the P-39,

It looks like a landslide .

Is the P-39 going to be the next aircraft custom ? Only the half amount of votes. I cut some off of the other list . Did I cut other guys wants by doing this ?


Buck up guys

Hey Pickel, I've been working on one of these for a while and have almost finished the tail boom. I'd be glad to let you sell it as a kit when I'm finished with mine. Maybe in the mean time you could do the wildcat or Tony..

Yes Matthew has the P-39 on his mind!

Hey B-29 thanks for the offer. I have the Tony about 80 % done. But I wanted to get a poll out to see what the majority voice would be for a custom plane ( other than a A-10) and in WW2 era. I thought that the Wildcat would be in the top 3 but it does not look like it so far.
Thanks for the P-39 offer it is very kind of you.
I am not sure how you built yours but when I build my customs the first thing that I look at before I even start is "how can I make copies of this ". So my building process is a lot different than a "one of rendition" I actually make mine in pieces to be broke down a hundred times in the construction. Believe me this is way harder than a "one of " build. It is like 30-40 mini models that fit into one large model. So each one can be cast seperate.

A couple more votes ( 6 ) and I think we are ready for the finals.

Actually, I did build mine with this in mind. I was planning to cast several and sell them on ebay. I'm happy to say I even found a resin strong enough for landing gear. I've been using your P-36 kit as a model of how to break things down for easier casting.

I don't know about these choices... they all seem to have too many wings and not enough treads!

I hear you my XD brother.

But as I have said I will do this when I am through with my armor phase. I am way not there yet.

I hope you are in a P-39 phase......hehehehee

What the Ho-229 lost out? OK I'll go with the He-162 its not flying wing but it will do.

Hawker Tempest for me & it would be easy to make the tempest Mk 2 as well
