mark.au Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Hello all; This one was a challenge all the way through with paint that wouldn't cure, clear coat that wouldn't cure, bone-headed operator errors, more bone-headed operator errors, and some bad luck (more operator error). That having been said, I'm pleased to have a differently painted Mossie on the shelf that looks reasonable if not viewed not too closely. Critique welcome. Cheers; Mark. 60 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 She looks very good. Some builds just don't go well, even starting with a good kit. Obviously your corrective actions amidst the trials worked. You have a model you can be very pleased with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackem01 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Your operator error works better than mine. That is one good looking Mossie, that camo suits it really well. I'm now going to have to purchase one for myself. Great job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
