Magnificent work Jeremy! I'm thrilled to be following another Fermis Factory build!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: 1/72 B-25's WIP
Thanks, dudes!
Been slow going...we've been getting a lot of snow....well, more like a little bit of snow...a lot! Spent most of last week working the graveyard shift, keeping the runway and taxiways clean at my airport. Up all night, sleep all day...kills the motivation to do anything. Rinse and repeat!
I've spent a good 2-3 hours re-working the Hase's rudders and elevators...while I spent just a few minutes assembling those parts from the Airfix kit.
The other HUGE advantage...it's about half the cost of the Hase kit! In the end, they are both B-25's and will look equally nice on the shelf.

So far, so good. It is perfectly in line with all of Airfix's newer kits. What I do like about the Airfix over the Hasegawa....separate rudders, elevators, and flaps option.portman wrote:Great work as always!
How do you rate the Airfix kit - worth picking one up?

Speaking of shelf. We haven't seen yours since you've built all these 109's 110's etc.
Re: 1/72 B-25's WIP
As with most of my builds...they get sent away and live elsewhere!
Moving along on these 25's...

Doing a Doolittle group?
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Wow! Stunning work! I think I built that second one myself but it sure didn't come out looking that good! Masterful work Jeremy! Way to go!
