Well, my snipe is on order  :D  Definitely will make mine a 4SQN Australian Flying Corps bird, much like my 1:48 Blue Max Snipe...


Brad, will you be doing Tommy Baker's bus, or will you wait for Rowan to do Bo King's?  I've got my Snipe on the way and plan on building it in Baker's markings and build my Blue Max kit at the same time in King's markings.  Should be fun.
Cheers,
Bud

A beautiful Snipe Brad.  Mine is on order too, hopefully will have it Monday or Tuesday, I have opted for the Soviet markings, something different.

Hi Bud!  Baker's mount is a possibility, but I think he only scored one kill on Snipes.... Bo King's Snipe will be a hard one to resist, given that he was the Snipe ace of the war....  Some of King's combat reports flying Snipes are quite interesting  :)

Yes indeed, that Snipe is a beauty. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the WnW kit.

Cheers,

Chris
