Vickers Wellington B X

And we are done. I still need to add the aerial wire, and the old Matchbox decals resisted all the Microscale products I could throw at them by managing to silver in places, but she still scrubs up well for an old girl. All in all it was good fun; now to crack on with the Lizzie!

Thanks Steve, however, I realised that I had missed off the astrodome. D'oh! It is now duly fitted.

That looks really smart. A good example of what can be done with a classic kit & skilful modelling.

Good job. 300 Squadron . A plane is too clean for me, but I like it.

I have been given this kit and in spite of best intentions, it's getting built from the box. I cant seem to stop the wing leading edges cracking. Slight pressure and...bugger. I think there is just no real surface for the cement to bond and no internal support for the wings. Point noted re the fuz, plastic card support it is. I am back after a long break (20+) years so this one is a nice one to practice on. She will get my best efforts but not a subject I would normally build.
