  1. Just how an interwar biplane should be, stunning finish.
  2. Sorry guys - despite my less than stellar progress reports I have been chipping away at this kit and I'm happy to report I'm on the downwind leg. She will be finished come the deadline.
  3. Not a huge Spitfire fan but something looks spot on with this - think it's the finish and subtle weathering. Great job.
  4. Cheers Jerry, some lovely photographs there. Plenty to work with.
  5. Thanks Scott, saves me a bit of work.
  6. Cheers Jerry, that plan is a great help. Think I'll fit it now.
  7. Hi all, as well as working on my Mossie I'm trying to clear an Italeri Boston from the S.o.D. It'll hopefully be finished as a 418 sqn intruder and to that end I have a question. Would the undercarriage legs and bays be finished in black like the undersides. Google is not very co-operative at the moment so any pointers would be much appreciated. Also, does anyone have any idea of the accuracy of the long range belly tank that comes with said kit? T.I.A...
  8. We all have our preferred paints, glues, etc but does anyone standardise on a certain brand of knives. Just asking out of curiosity as I seem to have a mongrel of a set and wondered if it was worth the expense of standardising.
  9. Would this also apply to RFC machines ?

    Canopy masks...

    Not paint but paint related. I'm about to use a set for the first time on a Mosquito. Do you fix the canopy to the airframe before you mask up or do it with the canopy then glue it in position? Any tips/advice.
  11. Good Grief! I hope the police lock him up and throw away the key. There's no need for that kind of thing. Get well soon my friend.
  12. As earlier.......chores done, update inbound. I've done bits and pieces during the week allowing me to make significant progress today. More work on the cockpit: As can be seen I've also closed up the fuselage and readied the undercarriage and made a start on the props. I think it's now time to get the filler out after I've joined the wings to the fuselage.........Oh joy! More as work progresses.
  13. Hi @Johnson, yes I've made good progress and should be posting later today chores allowing. Thanks.
