Hans-Joachim Marseille 90mm

I thought you Aircraft Nuts would love to see this one as it is a BEAUTY.

It will soon be released by Andrea Miniatures and it comes complete with that wreck. As a traitor, I don't know what it is but I bet my head, that Marco would have the answer as soon as he sees it

Also if I'm not mistaken Hans-Joachim Marseille is his IDOL hux ?

Ray

Vera it's a beauty ! Let me try and beat Marco to it....I think it's a Boston Havoc...second guess would be a glass nose mitchell.... it will have to be verified by the walking dictionary though
IL PEC

Looks Like its a Bristol Blenheim Mk IV

Dave

David tinsiex li the blenheim had a depression in it's forward glass canopy.....
cannot see it here...ma nafx might be wrong..issa nistennew l eccelenza tieghu l hon Marco Borg ha jaqta il kundanna
IL PEC

Dave

Ghandek ragun...pero ma nafx ghadni minniex konvint....il blenheim kien naqra wisa...dan qisu fit tul u dejjaq bhal Boston...imsomma...u xinhu il figure tal genn
IL PEC

Fit-tul ha jehodha Marco donnu

RAY QED JISTUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDJA....NOTICE THE ACCENT

Forget the boston, it is a blenheim front section(split down the middle) The boston/havoc canopy frames were flat in the middle then rounding up in about a sem-circle (roughly) as they got to the side. As david said the depression in the framing was on the other side. Anyway, the figure is nice.

Hi there sorry for the delay but I have been working so lately ,, Well you are definitely right Joe and David 100 marks....Its a Bristol Blenheim Mk IV, although a don't have any photo yet of Marseille posing near a Blenheim may be its fiction....... this the Blenheim,and this is the Boston, and the Marland...I think I satisfied your answers.....happy modeling ...........

And to give you some appetite ....

And for the armour ..

I retract my humble opinions sirs... ghandkhom ragun....i went back to the books and you are right the canopy framing says it all...Marco prosit what a nice array of pics u put on for us....mela the argument is now solved and closed

Imma meta ha TITGHALLMU biex lil MARCO MA TMERUHX fejn jidhlu l-GWIENAH hlief fejn jidhlu l-GWIENAH tat-TIGIEG ghax ma tontc jigustuwwum peress li ma tontc fijjim lehem (ala Zurch dialect)

Ray may be this can help for the colours and summer uniform

Sure it will Marco, however we would still need to establish what colour was it. I mean what khaki?

I presume that it was the same or a very close khaki to Rommel's tank troops, but we'll ask the German Tank nuts at the Club re this what do you think?

Or am I waisting energy as you would know what khaki it was well from the INSIGHT that you have re the BIRDS that these guys flew, I'm sure you know what did they wear and what colour they were when flying them

Ray

Yes of course we share with the tank modelers for the colours , but some were I have the exact colours I'm going back to my wonder library , and will see ok.. so were am I..

Marco, all these photos you are posting are amazing, brilliant great BUT you still have not posted a single photo of the MODEL YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BUILDING!!!!! Meta ser naraw ritratt?

thanks

I have just got this kit and let me tell you its excellent. The figure looks so much better than the painted version you see on the box art, the casting is brilliant. Can't wait to start painting it and maybe doing some detailing on the interior. Just got to finish two figures before I start....... Hardy

If you whant more photos of mars..in desert uniform I have but in b&W those are the only colour I have...

Yes please. Hardy
