John Masters Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 OK...finito...Time to get cracking on something else, namely the Duck over in the Maritime Patrol GB. I might also start another Bf-109 and/or Spitfire. Although, now that I have begun work in the darkroom with my winter group (23 of them)...no, I will build as much as I can, when I can. This was a fun kit, if a little nerve-wracking at times and it is good to see it done and out of the stash. Some of the plastic is so thinly moulded that it threatens to break; some of the exhaust pipes needed are not supplied; some of the plastic parts are as small as photo-etch...But it built into a nice representation of this very famous aircraft. I'll get around tp fashioning some more exhausts later...Trust me, there were no leftover parts save for the skis. Thanks for all the support! -John 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelh Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Very nice. Now if you could find a a couple of female figures to crew the biplane. It would be a nice tribute to the 'Night Witches'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Finished up very good. I like the suttle weathering and the base is very authentic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazey Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Nicely done! This is another one on my wish list, but I wonder whether there are markings available for a night witch version. Yes, now onto the Octopus Duck! Regards, David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
