I' m building an accurate miniatures B-25 B Mitchell. Much to my extreme dismay, the front landing gear appears to be missing from the kit.To say i am a little miffed may be a slight understatement. So,my dilemma is this,do i scratch build said missing, yet important part (don't have much confidence in that idea)or do i order from A.M? Has anyone had any experience in ordering parts from A.M. Is there a U.K site? Or have I got to order from America?
Other than that, the kit is really good.Would be eternally grateful for any help.
Thanks Andy :-)

Hi Andy
I might be able to chase down the UK supplier if I get a break from work tomorrow but, failing that, here are a couple of avenues to folow:
Accurate Miniatures have a parts request page on their website, or send a PM to Buzzsaw - he's Accurate Miniatures' Art Director and should be able to help.
All the best

Thanks Rowan. I sent an e/mail to Accurate Miniatures on the 2/05/05, but still haven't had a reply yet. I'll try Creative Models next, hopefully i'll have more luck??
Can't do much more to my B25 untill i get the part. I'll post some in progress pics when i get the chance.
Thanks again Rowan. Andy.
