Still slagging away at it

I'm the one drawing it up, and it's been slow going. I can say it will actually be two sheets, one in heavier brass and is structural details, plus the seat and instrument panel -- the seat is a thing of wonder, if it etches properly! -- and the other sheet will be lighter brass and include the fiddly bits. We dunno yet if they will be offered separately or together.

Cheers for that Buzz. I have just bought one off eBay so was hoping the brass set was close. But sounds like it will be well worth the wait though.

Dear Buzz

Your Killin ME !? I had know Idea you Sly GUY !!! I just cuaght the updates on this thread by accident.

Ive GOT THREE oF those Builds (HobbyC. Camels 2:new/1:Old) WAITING on the shelf (Course thre isn't much that ISN'T waiting on my shelf) For a quick build to showcase some paints! ! !

I've been emailing Tom ModelsWks since the release of the new Kits Harassing TOM as to when he was going to release the Camel Detail Kits. (He even mentioned possibly a resin main gas tank?) But that they were in developement.

When he reopened after his move I pettioned him agian for a release date for these Camel Detail Sets even as he said he was consolidating and going to concentrate on ship details.

He did offer up that the Frets where Stuck in development with "the Guy" that was "working on them" and that if "He" didn't move on them soon he promised he would finish them himself !!!

Buzzz !!! Your Kiddin me ? It's YOU !!! What a small world. Please Buzzz. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Quit GOOFING AROUND AND FINSH THEM ! Worry how TOm will package them AFTER THEIR FINISHED ?????

Iam Dying to Start and FInish these Kits BUT Iam stuck waiting on those Details. I can't see finishing them with out them? Come On Buzz YOUR a Great Guy and a master Modeler What to ya say? Help a bunch of Builders OUT, Finish these sets Now?
