Okay....

So I got the box out the other night - played around with the sprues for a bit, and then packed it all back up and put it back in the stash. I have to say that given all the stress and crap life is throwing at us at the moment, I can handle another heavy-going build, the Victor I'm building for the jet GB is enough for now.

Mind you, I still want to build an RAF Bucc... So I've ordered one of these...

Along with some of these...

I have a couple of Sea Eagles I can fit to it as well. Should be a fun build - I've not built a new new tool Airfix kit for a while.

Cheers!

It’ll be nice to set the 1/72 Buccaneer next to the 1/72 Victor when they are both completed.

Cool! A friend of mine gave me that exact same Buccaneer kit for my birthday. I'll watch this one closely.
