Do you remember the French Fancy GB from a few years ago. Maybe we’ll have to have another one of those sometime. James 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James I do remember that one James, there were some great builds for it, I think I built an Aeronavale Corsair for that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 This one is actually finished and has been for a couple of days, its just waiting for some slightly better light for me to take some pictures of it which should hopefully be in the next couple of days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 As promised I took some pictures of my finished F, the final one of my three P-40 builds for the GB! I must admit that there was more than one occasion that I didn't think that I would get them done in time but as it turned out I actually managed to get them done for the original deadline, granted no photos of the F until today but she was finished on Sunday. Enough waffling, here are the pics of the finished model; A huge thank you to all of you who have popped in and followed my builds and kept things on track, your support is very much appreciated. I have to say that I have enjoyed all three of them and even the old AMT ones haven't turned out too badly, though I will hold off on buying any more to see what Eduard comes up with for their models. Thanks for looking in and as usual all comments and criticisms are gratefully received. Craig. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo1966 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Turned out great Craig, really nice. I know they are right, but the tiny roundels on top of the wings look so wrong 😆 George 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings unlevel Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) C’est magnifique! Looks fantastic Craig, especially with French markings, really suits it. Great work leading by example in the GB too, with your three fantastic builds. Very impressive given how generous with your time you’ve been as host as well. 👍 Edited December 22, 2023 by Wings unlevel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
