Erik Leijdens Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Recently completed the Eduard Tempest Mk.V series 2. A great kit however the AMS struck so I completed it with some aftermarket; PE flaps from Eduard, wheels, seat, radiator and exhausts from Barracuda studios. The squadron letters and serial are from Dutch Decal to represent the machine of Jan Linzel. This was a "Mayflyer" who managed to escape to the UK and flew with 33 squadron of the RAF. Approved by "Kitty" A fine cockpit OOB but not much can be seen when the fuselage is closed.

supersonic Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) Top Notch paint work all around, especially the subtle weathered flap insides & cockpit This great result proves in an impressive way that it helps enormously if someone has an experienced cat quality manager who does the final inspection of each & every build step....

Cheers Hans I am in total agreement with every word. Feline supervision is most helpful. Pretty cat, by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
