Your usual good work on display again, Steve -

 

Your obviously off Hurricanes for a bit!   Also, nothing wrong with a little drink on a Saturday evening - I enjoy a few glasses of wine then.

 

What's next on your workbench?

 

Regards

Hi Steve,

 

funny to see your Sturmovik, as I was reading a review of the same kit this afternoon in a 2013 French magazine. Small world. A lot of good things were said about it.

It looks really good and I am not sure one could see the difference between the HB offering and the Academy or more expensive kits, short of having the nose right on top of the models.

And of course, you build little jewels!

I am busy butchering the cockpit of the HB D520 you thought quite highly of. As I feared, I am destroying the Easy Assembly concept, but I have promised myself that I would only mess around with the cockpit.... Heard that one before. Whatever, this type of kit is really growing on me.

Congrats on your Sturmovik!

Nice job Steve.

 

Very tasty finish and the kit looks like it builds to a much more accurate shape than the reboxed Airfix I built a little while ago.

 

superbly done and got the canopy painting right which is definitely one up on me!

 

Cheers

 

Bruce
