S.74

Sem Model is producing a resin S.74.  I’d never heard of this aircraft.  More here.

This one is for Inch High

Inch built the whole ship.

Venezuela news

The slow motion disaster that is Venezuela is fascinating to watch from afar. Up close, I am sure it is a dystopian hellscape.  The concept of paying laid off workers in tires is just amazing.

Space tourists

It looks like Virgin Galactic is close to actually taking tourists to space.  I’ll be interested to see what the demand is.    ( Post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

SBS DH.82 rigging

SBS comes thru with another must have detail set, DH.82

MiG-25

This moth or next, ICM is releasing a 72nd scale kit of the Recon version of the MiG-25.  Yay!

Of course, who didn’t. Japan is going to buy 100 additional F-35s, including F-35Bs which can operate from the country’s two helicopter carriers.  Makes perfect sense.  Also, Japan is ramping up its defense spending.  The South China Sea is going to become a more interesting place that it already is.

F-14

I am sure this is expensive, but if you are an F-14 fan, I can see this being worth it to you.

 

Comet’s close approach

I haven’t seen it yet, but I haven’t made an effort.  I should try to get a look.
