    Oh, my word: that is out of this world, Chris! Absolutely amazing!

    That's what I was thinking - some distortion is probably the payoff for the thinness of the mouldings. Cheers, Mark

    Stunning, absolutely superb! Cheers, Mark

    What an absolute pain in the behind! Quite a few of my Eduard kits have fuselage halves that have a touch of the banana about them - inline-engined types like the P-51 and Spit. Hope the crack is an easy fix! Cheers, Mark

    Great work on the wings, Mark, and interesting to note how not all of the panel lines within the "accepted area" were puttied after all! I'll be very interested to see how they turn out under a coat of alu' lacquer. Cheers, Mark

    Superb work on the cockpit and wheel bay, looking fantastic! Cheers, Mark

    Great progress there! I agree about etch - it's an absolute *B*! Cheers, Mark

    Superb Sea Gladiator work, Chris, the Mercury is looking incredible! Great to see the Dub is back together and gracing the highways and byeways once again - cracking work there, too! Cheers, Mark

    Welcome aboard, chaps - those are two great-sounding projects which I'm looking forward to seeing! Cheers, Mark

    This is one absolutely superb B-25, Alistair, you must be well pleased with how she's turned out! Great build thread, great work all round! Cheers, Mark

    Wow, Martin! That is outstanding! The bespoke decals are excellent and set off the whole scheme. Brilliant! Cheers, Mark
  12. 2996 Victor
    That's a splendid Spitfire - I do like that scheme! Two gorgeous builds.

    Beautiful Sea Fury, CC, looking lovely in it's dark blue with all those extras! Cheers, Mark
  14. 2996 Victor
    That's a beauty, Steve, stunning work through and through! Cheers, Mark

    I did the self same thing - they seem particularly brittle. A bit of Evergreen or Plastruct rod, or some brass wire, will get it sorted in no time. Cheers, Mark

    Super work on the cockpit, Rob, the area behind the seat looks really great, very convincing! All round great work knocking this into shape. I know what you mean about rescribing and I feel your angst. Cheers, Mark

    My bundle arrived today 😁 Mk.IIB+Mk.IIC+Sea Hurri Mk.IIC. Very, very happy and looking forward to building them. Thank you, Arma! My only quandary is that I'd planned to build the Mk.IIB as an ML-KNIL example in the Asia GB, but one of the box schemes is a Church Stanton-based aircraft, and Church Stanton is near where I grew up! Cheers, Mark

    Excellent review, Mike, thank you! Cheers, Mark
  19. 2996 Victor
    Thanks, yes I'd spotted that but I'm not really in the market for a Mk.IX at the moment, and as we're gearing up to move house soon I don't want to be buying more kits at the moment! I might try a want ad and see if anyone's got one sitting in a spares box! Cheers, Mark
  20. 2996 Victor
    Brilliant, thanks, that's great! I just need to find an Aerovee carb intake now! Cheers, Mark
  21. 2996 Victor
    Great progress, Pappy, this is really coming along very nicely! I love the extra details - the scratch built reflector gunsight is great, but I didn't realise the ring and bead was retained too. Looking forward to your next update! Cheers, Mark
  22. 2996 Victor
    Cracking job, JB, that's an excellent Mustang! Great to see a camo'd version and the ID stripes were worth the perseverance! This has been a great build to follow Cheers, Mark
  23. 2996 Victor
    The Seafire is looking amazing, Chris, absolutely superb! Shame about the canopy but good to know you've got a replacement already in place. This has been a great build to follow with lots of inspiration Cheers, Mark
  24. 2996 Victor
    Looks fantastic, Chris, I'll bet you're glad you persevered? You're a master at these TT schemes! Cheers, Mark

    So, as a follow-up to my questions just above, does anyone know if after market Spitfire Aerovee carb intakes and Mk.IX props are available in 1/48 scale? Ultracast make prop blades and spinner for the Eduard Mk.IX, but use the kit backplane. Cheers, Mark
