Superb! The colours and subtle weathering are spot on and the base really sets it off. Excellent work! Chris

Looks great so far! Chris

Nice job on a tough kit. Very good paintwork, especially considering it's brush painted! Chris

Beautiful! The weathering is very subtle and effective Chris

A classic kit, beautifully built!!! Chris

Nicely built, superbly painted and boobs. What's not to like?!?! Chris

Lovely build! The paintwork and weathering is excellent! Chris

Many thanks to those that voted for my Mossie! Congrats to DAG058 on your beautiful Sea Vixen, I will be building mine soon inspired by yours! Well done to all the took part as well, I very much enjoyed reading the build threads and looking at the finished results. Finally, a big thank you to our hosts and co-hosts for holding such a fantastic GB! Chris p.s. couldnt resist adding a pic of the Mossie basking in the late afternoon sun

With thanks to 303sqn, I have now carried out a couple of corrections to the Mk.III The serial on the Techmod sheet, HB930, is not correct. The actual serial was FB374. As a Squadron Leader, Arct had a rank pennant painted on the forward fuselage. These have now been added. Thanks again to 303 for the information. Chris

Beauties one and all, I especially like the Corsair! Chris

Nicely built Spitfire! The Hasegawa kit is lovely, it's a shame they got the fuselage length wrong! Doesn't detract from your build though Chris

Well that's certainly a scheme you don't see every day! Really suits the Thunderbolt. Beautiful job! Chris

Good info 303. Can you please provide any references as to the location of the rank pennants? I'm going to correct this model. Thanks in advance, Chris

Looking great so far! Chris

Dusty environment and sun-bleached paintwork? I would go for flat as a pancake! Loving your paintwork on this BTW Chris

This colour scheme is a beauty, I'm looking forward to seeing the final result! Chris

The model is beautifully built but the photography really makes it! Great job! Chris

Thanks for the positive comments Next up is a Gloster Gladiator but after that I fancy a desert marked JG53 Bf109. I do have a soft spot for desert markings! Chris

Thanks for the kind comments everybody! 303 thanks for the correction. I think this model will have a change of serial number in the near future as the Techmod sheet has it as HB930!!! Chris

Top job on that 109! Chris

Got this kit to do in this scheme - when I get round to building it I'll be back to look at yours to see how it's done!! Chris

Lovely job on what looks like a complicated paint scheme. The wear and tear on the paint looks natural Chris

Nice job! Like the P-51B most of all! Chris

Come on, tell the truth - that first shot is real right?! Beautiful job! Chris

Hi all! My latest two completions, a pair of RAF highback Mustangs. First up is the Accurate Miniatures Kit converted to a Mk.1 using the Ultracast conversion. Wing panel lines filled to simulate the putty used by NAA. Eduard Seatbelts, prop and exhaust stolen from an Eduard P-39 kit. Tamiya paints including a home-made 'Mixed Grey' from Tamiya MSG and Black. Decals from the Spares box to represent and aircraft of 26 Squadron. AM148 later became a test aircraft for Rolls-Royce. I'm sure this is a lovely kit however my butchery to fit the Ultracast conversion didn't help!!! Second is the Tamiya P-51B built as Mk.III. Wing panel lines filled again, Eduard seatbelts, Rob Taurus vac canopy. Tamiya paints and Techmod decals to represent the aircraft of Sqn Ldr Bohdan Arct of 316 (Polish) Squadron. He bailed out of this aircraft and was captured in September 1944 after an engine failure. Not much else to say about the Tamiya kit, it's an absolute beauty! As with the Fw190 thread, apologies for the out of focus pictures. It's 50 degrees outside and I don't want to go back outside to take new ones! Thanks for looking, Chris
