TonyTiger66 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I will follow this build with interest too Patrice . I'm a very big fan of the Mosquito. I plan to do one in the Matchbox GB later this year. I have the Tamiya kit too; it is much more detailed and Im interested to see how the wing and spar assembly goes together. They have a very detailed undercarriage too; it puzzles me a little so watching your build will be a big help . Nice choice of subject, the profile looks old and interesting. Best regards TonyT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEMPESTMK5 Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Hi Tony I agree the Mosquito is a very nice aircraft , I also have the Hasegawa Mosquito in my stash but I prefer the Tamiya one much more detailed ..I have found the profile on Wings palette .. I hope I won't disapoint you with the rest of this build.. Patrice Edited February 20, 2017 by TEMPESTMK5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
