Really good 163, especially the paintwork.

That's what modelling is all about, it really catches the subject in all its glory. Well done

Very convincing model the way you've photographed it, absolutely brilliant.

Wonderful looking model, great build and weathering. Well done

Lovely work again and nice to see the restrained weathering, well done

It's an absolute belter and very well executed. Nothing to fault at all, well done.

Really good again Tolga, this is a cracker.

That's quite simply stunning, every skill needed for modelling is fully demonstrated here. Well done, I hope my Pony turns out as good.

Many thanks to all for the fabulous comments it's really appreciated. To answer Andy's comments I tend to stick with Tamiya paints and the wheel wells are painted with XF-4 yellow green, then weathered with artist oils. Also I think you're right Andy the propeller blades are under weathered even for my tastes. Regards Trace

Hi Everyone I’m calling the Wicked Wabbit done. This is the truly excellent Tamiya 1/48 scale P-47 and it’s been in a state of partial completion for about four years, wish I’d just settled down and got it done in one session. It’s also the first time I’ve used a Montex mask and wet transfer set and it won’t be the last, they really are superb and make the model sing. Other than that, the model is basically out the box except for the seat belts which are home made. Hope you like it.. Kind regards Trace

Really good looking SBD, superb weathering as well.

Brilliant

I wouldn't normally give civil aircraft a second glance but this is well worth the effort. Truly excellent model well done.

That's just brilliant, I can't fault it in any way. The photography worked out superbly as well.

I'm officially putting that one under the category "stunning", I'd love that in my display case. You've only gone and made me want to buy one now.

Cracking job, well done.

What a great looking Zero, the weathering really shows off the fantastic rivet lines of this model. I'm waiting for the later versions to come out, fingers crossed Eduard will oblige. Well done.

That is a cracking little model, well done. Weathering is spot on.

Gorgeous looking aircraft and superb modelling, well done.

Top draw modelling and a really interesting subject, well done.

Cracking job again there Zigomar. The camouflage looks superb.

Brilliant back story followed by some sublime modelling and first rate photography. Outstanding.

Do you know what? that's brilliant.

Very nice phantom, hard to believe it,s 1/72 finish is subject

That's a belter, I really like the weathering and cockpit.
