I can't be blamed - it was not ALL my fault, it was Neil who made me do it.
After all the comments I have made in the past about model planes - yes its a plane. I got the Yefim Gorden and Dmitriy Komissarov book on the Tu 95 from Neil and that got me thinking I was sure I had one in the loft, it was from"The Works"at a price of £9.99 and then half price a few years ago.
Will it be made straight out of the box and put onto a plain base - not a cat in hell's chance. Got thinking about how the Riga air museum did the planes -- so will try and do something similar and have lots of bombs, missiles, display boards, people, wire netting etc. So lots of scratch building and to keep Haddock happy its rigged, not to the same scale as ships its got ONE wire from the tail to the body. After looking at the instructions have decided that if I don't make it so the props turn can re-jig the order of making so its easier to paint - thats the plan at the moment.
