Jumping away from RPG Fantasy and Sci-Fi a couple of small scale kits caught my eye from the "to do" pile of unmade kits, 1/144 Me-109's from Zvezda (see below):
This brings my collection of Me-109's to a total of four, in other words a nice little "finger four" Luftwaffe Schwarm.
The kit is a basic 'almost' snap together affair, but I think it will paint up nicely. The only unfortunate downside is their attempt at decals (I think I will be trying to paint mine on).
Footnote:
Looking around the net I just spotted an interesting Zvezda new 1/144 kit the Hawker Hurricane Mk I, which immediately goes on the Xmas list. They also seem to be going British, doing a 15mm Matilda II and Bedford truck! If only I could justify getting one as I game in 20mm, 1/200 and 1/1300 - No way can I sanely go into another scale!

Nice looking kits Geordie. Where did you get those stands?
The stands come with the kit Paul
Cheers mate.
Very nice!
Good to know that Zvezda has this range going!
Cheers,

The Matilda isn't a bad little tank, but the turret MG is a bit weak on Zvezda's. I haven't gotten around to replacing mine yet.
Hello Arquinsel,
The turret mg looks interesting
Is it a Vickers HMG - the BEF's Matilda II had these, the later 8th Army Western Desert ones has a Besa LMG
Are both versions catered for?
Hello Arjan,
I was so pleased when I saw i I wanted to "spread the word"
;)
