Terrific, JC.

Loved the choice of subjects, many of them my own favourites from a terrific weekend.

By the way, though, the elephant towing the Corsair is REAL, not what if? Mean to do one in 1/48th....got the elephant you see. :lol:

I thought that elephant towing the Corsair was, in fact, yours, Terry!

Don't let that elephant go to waste.

A number of us first saw that Ju 390 at last years Horncurch show, it won best in show as i recall.

A pair of revell Ju290's died to creat it i think

The creature towing a Corsair does not look like an Asian Elephant but more like a Stegomastodon (short wide defenses and nose straight in front , horizontal, which is not a normal posture for "our" elephants). This species disappeared 1 million years ago in our world that's why I put it in what-if ...

Well, good thinking, JC.

That of course, means a whole new scene...Heller/Airfix Stagasaurus, etc., towing all sorts of things. :lol:

The R-42 is modelled by Mike McEvoy - I also had one from the RV Resins kit

Do you mean the HR Resin kit (see http://www.hannants.co.uk/search/?FULL=HR7342 (http://www.hannants.co.uk/search/?FULL=HR7342) ) or another one?
[I did not know this was available without need of scratch, and never thought of asking for it, thanks!]
