My solution to the undercart was to file the wheels down til they fitted, bout 10mins work per side.

Not built any of these yet (will do some time soonish) but had a similar issue with Airfix Minikits. My solution - leave the undercarriage off entirely as I'd never see them from below anyway  :P

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Played Check Your Six and Wings of War, both of which give a reasonable game. CYS needs a hex mat.

Got mine painted up today, didn't spend as much time on them as i should have though. But hey, at least they are painted!

I left the landing gear out, that way i can use them as scenery objectives as i won't be using them all the time.

Nice job, Peter. I see you went with the stopped prop after all.

Yeah, just to save myself the hassle, and i can use them as 'landed' planes for scenery / objectives.

I found the prop on the Typhoon very delicate so I removed mine.

109 ? - think it be a 190.....

Just finished and undercoated P-39 and P-47. The 39 is missing it's nose cannon, and wing fit on the Jug is very poor...Look right though.
I suspect there is a standard 3 blade prop, as the P-39 one looks suspiciously like that on P-40, Hurri and Spit.
