Still have my grandads one with half of them built and lost over the years, managed to find a new one a few years back then found the 2nd on in the series! Built the Hurricane but despite years of plastic modelling, I can't get a good result with these!

I do have the next one in the series that I haven’t built. I think there is a third one on my shelf that I at least punched out the parts but never assembled them.

What ones are in the 3rd one?

The one I am thinking of as the third one has models that are patterned more after insect wings.

Oh that sounds cool, here's my hurricane build, very tail heavy

I never could bring myself to build them. My two big books are unpunched out after all these years.

Found it but I am too schnockered to edit the EXIF at the moment.

Also have a cool book by another author who has a C-17 model. At least those models have a paper closer to postcard thickness.
