The base looks sweet! Do you have the HK 1/32 B-25 kit in your stash now? Oooooh....

I know this is a huuuge aircraft model—but it looks fun to build! I need to schedule projects in 1/32, beginning with this Mustang, the Revell Mustang which I want to buddy build with Kari, a Revell Fw 190 F-8 w/Henri Dähne propeller and a 1/32 Wingnut Wings Sopwith Camel. At my rate of progress, two years to complete, perhaps? However, many happy hours of modeling ahead. I do want to build this B-25... I’m pausing before I hit the buy button to assess my options!

lol - you'll be waiting a long time with that popcorn as I'm unlikely to get one in the stash for a while - I'm trying to cut down on what I buy (and a Robin Olds P-38 it next on the list).

It does look a good kit though.

I have that Airfix Mitchell already; I got it in the Mystery Box at our Distressed Kit Auction. It is a great looking kit in the box with a couple options on versions you can do. I'm not sure when I'll get started on it. I want to finish a lot of small models first since these "larger" models tend to take up so much of my time to get right and slow down my completion rate to a crawl.
