That's grand!  I enjoyed reading the WIP and it's great to see she's finished and ready to go.

Thanks Jack - much appreciated!

 

Cheers,

Looks great. Excellent detail work!

I'm planning a 161 Sq. "Special Duties" Lysander, using the same kit, so I hope I can get mine looking half as good. I've found your build log very useful, particularly with regard to the rear compartment--I was disappointed to find Eduard hadn't supplied an SD version. Yours looks very convincing. May I ask what references you used? I've only been able to glean the vaguest of detail from the usual pilot memoirs.

Thanks for the kind words. I shamessly borrowed from @dnl42's excellent build -  there really is little hard reference material so it's poetic licence. I also referred to the Lysander Haynes Manual, and had some help on the leading edge slats from @bigbadbadge. Not much help I'm afraid!

 

Cheers,

Excellent work, the interior is especially well detailed.

 

I've been looking out for one as I want to do another 613 Sqn aircraft, I believe the Eduard boxing comes with those markings. Unfortunately the kit seems to be as rare as rocking horse :poop:at the moment.

What a wonderful job you have done here!  Excellent interior and paint job.  The weathering looks perfect to my eye.

Until it's seen with your hand in the picture it looks HUGE!

 

Wiring BEHIND the dashboard?  You're mad! 🤪

Thanks for the kind words - much appreciated!
