Just brilliant Derek, thanks for sharing. Jean

Hi Derek, I am truly awe-struck by these patterns of yours. This is the first time I've seen anything completed by you - not intended as a dig..well, not really . But seriously, if you're spending most of your time producing gems like this one, no wonder the Spit, Phantom et al are taking a back seat. At some point an illustrated tutorial would be a real treat, even if it can't be at the other place for reasons of scale. Yours in admiration, Jean

Beautiful!!!!

I was wondering why you weren't posting this build on LSP as well when I realised all this incredible scratchbuilding is in 1/48 scale. Unreal!!!

Ah Phil, It's now official, you are my hero. Seriously, among a number of seriously impressive scratchbuilds going on around the web, this one has got to be my favourite. It just looks so right! Best, Jean

Looking VERY good!

Quite simply astounding! A worthy 72nd scale counterpart to Phil's 48 scale masterpiece.

Very fine work all round, and the paint job is particularly convincing. I hope to see more of your models here soon.

You, sir, are insanely talented!!! What a build!

I sure would!!!

I can only echo that! What fabulous scratchbuiding!

That says it all. To answer your question, I've been working (sporadically) on my Spit for one and a half years with precious little to show for it. If your build is never ending, mine gives a glimpse of the meaning of eternity. Jean

She's a beauty, geedub. Jean

I'm with Houston. You're not going to relegate that fine work to the back of the display cabinet. Put it aside for a couple of weeks, then come back to it, remove the wing and fix the problem. YOU CAN DO IT.

Really nice Lanc Graham. BTW, still waiting for the latest piccies at the other place Jean
