Great job, from the scratch-building to the finish and base; enjoyed the WIP too. The black and white filter shows it off nicely.

:wow: Stunning build Kev I have learned a lot from your WIP

IMHO I think the black and white photos look best just like looking at an old photo from a book of the real thing

You have got to be on to a winner with this at any competition table

Cheers keith

Top build, Kev!

I hope you don't mind. I have been reading old Aeroplane magazines recently, and I discovered this ad in an August 1945 issue:

Note the pennant number of the MTB......

So, I did this:

:winkgrin:

I can send you a large size file of the ad if you want to play around with it.

Thats a cracking dio of this boat. I think I might just like the B & W photos best, they are so like some of the pictures in my treasured copy "Battle of the Narrow Seas" by Peter Scott. Either ways, its a bit super. :)

Britmodeller’s being over-run by MTB’s and MGB’s !!! 😲

 

Not that that’s a bad thing I suppose. 👍

 

Definitely not.

 

Inspirational then Kev and still inspirational now.

Superb
