    I have several Airfix PzKfw IV because then was the only option. Still, is a nice kit and a good wargame tanks.The 21st Panzer Div is very close to a vertical D, with a horizontal line in the midle./media/tinymce_upload/3006ae42ea0e92965201656c49345e07.jpgI also have a wounded commander in my last tank, but is different :)

    Airfix - What's your Latest Acquisition?

    No, no problem at all :)

    In the picture is the basic structure for the Anderson Shelter. The base was cut from a old CD box, the middle is a strip of plastic and both ends are paper from a cookies package. After painted and adding all the small rocks and powder, the result is what can be seen in the first picture :)

    My suggestion is to gather same of the already available pilots and make a single set for each period, just with the seated pilots because can avoid both costs and time. Would leave other pilots figures to be included in revised ground personal sets, made in 1/72 because represent a bigger investment and a longer development period.

    After several decades recycling pilots from one aircraft to another, I'm running out of figures to new airplanes. I even found a new jobs to the older Airfix and Frog pilots instead of allowing them to retire peacefully :)

    I would like to see a box with the standard seated pilots to suit most 1/72 kits. I don't care too much if the figures are all identical or if there are a couple different figures, just need a cost efective solution for models with enclosed cockpit where pilots are only partially seen. A box with 40 identical figures, or with 2-3 types, with a competitive price would be very welcome to me because most alternatives are expensive or very low quallity.

    I use a layer of PVA, then drop powder, small stones, some from my cat litter box, and grass or what is required to get the effect I want. A dilluted paint help to keep all in place, but there are sprays who can seal the whole set. The result is something like what can be seen here, with a Bf-109F with the engine already started :)
