Expert's Choice 1/48 set is 48-45. Hannants carries them -I think. I'll have to wait until I get home tonight, but I think the 1/72 version is out of production.

Sounds good! By the way, the 1/72 version I scanned and posted here is Experts-Choice # 72-17. Same markings as the 1/48 set, but I haven't found anyone selling it, not even www.bare-metal.com carries it anymore, and they were the owners of the brand. Merry Christmas! Mark |

Great looking models.
It would have taken me six years and lots of frustration.

Really great work on all three Sixes! I wish I had the time to complete just one of the many I have in my stash. I thought I would be able to start some serious building when I retired, but I chose selling cars as my next career! At least I don't have to deploy! I'll get to 'em soon! Okay! Great find on the 1/144 kit! You've probably discovered this, but here's a bit of info I never knew until I bought and built mine back in 2001. There are no main gear doors!! There are a few other issues with that little kit, and to save space here, and prevent duplicating what I wrote eleven years ago, here is the review I wrote on it for Modeling Madness back in February, 2001. modelingmadness.com/reviews/mod/williams106preview.htmKeep us posted, and again, excellent work!! |
