  1. The cockpit is perfect. The engine just very minor niggles but pretty much so.
  2. My second build of this first class new kit. This time, as I'd saved lots by getting over-trees only from Eduard, I added a Brassin cockpit set, Brassin engine, fabric seat-belts and some lovely Eagle Cal decals. Zero fit issues with any of the resin parts.
  3. Beautiful build but it messes with my head!!
  4. This is the 4th one I've built but the first in this scheme. One of my favorite kits to put together.
  5. Eduard Taifun in 1/48 with the addition of Techmod decals. Willy Messerschmitt's personal aircraft.
  6. I wasn't but I'm checking them out now...wow!! I need to build another ...
  7. The decals are generic and come in A4 sheets. That means a bit more work but it was worth it.
  8. Very painless and enjoyable build. Tried a few new techniques with Uschi VDR wood decals and Aviattic linen decals.
  9. How's the cockpit transparency? I built this last year and it seemed like the mould was way past it's useful life. I ended up getting a vac replacement. Just curious.
  10. Excellent job! Very familiar with this aircraft from my time at Cosford. You'd like to think there would be at least some quality control at Brigade? Sounds like you pretty much scratch built the conversion.
  11. Wow...just wow. I've built lots of these and got nowhere near this. The only time I tried to use the engine set I ended up chucking it all away. Such an inspiring build!!
  12. More work on my days off (I'm lucky as my shifts give me 4 days on the spin to work on stuff) RAF Mid-Stone base coat (Hataka Acrylics) Dark Earth camo (Blutac method used for demarcation) Underside sprayed Azure Blue Gloss coated and decalled, with some oil panel lines in. This version had no large fuselage numbers identifying it, just the small serial numbers at the rear.
  13. Lovely detail on the wings All fitted beautifully... Main bits assembled, minimum fill required,. All primed and pre-shaded.
  14. Today's update: Radiator coated with Alclad Aluminium prior to wash. Rear view after wash with MIG Night Black Internal stuff going in Buttoned up fuselage...and relax.
  15. Some slightly better pictures of the cockpit work.
