Well,
My 109 for the BoB campaign has been damaged ! I came back from feeding the kids dinner and found my 109 lying on the floor... There now is a busted seam halfway down the top center just behind the canopy. It'll take some more filling and sanding to fix, but I will get it finished within the next few weeks.


BTW .... plane down, but pilot saved and will fight another day !!!!!

Pity, My lady, but worry you shall not, we have enough BF in the sky to kick them Hurricane's Arse. good thing is the pilot is alive and kicking.

Oink Bloody BF109 Oink!!!!!

PS, at least your undoing is of natural cause unlike someone we know from chat pushed the cockpit inside the fuselage....geez.

My sympathies. I know the feeling, or should I say Sel. Between our cats and our kids, keeping models intact is hard work, especially when you don't have the money for proper shelving with glass panes for protection. I have seen too many of Sel's tanks get destroyed or damaged by roaming cats jumping up on shelves. He's had plenty of "repair" time with those tanks. So far, as of late, we've been lucky.

Dear penny,

You have my sympathy for the 109, but you have struck fear into my heart. I must move back to the US and in turn let those wonderful, kind, gentle (NOT) movers move my models. I just hope I pack well and the box is not on the bottom of the crate!
