Vince Blackburn Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Hello all Here is the Kate in finished form, had to do some extra work at the end as I lost the side windows and had to scratch build them For the first time I have also added the aerials with half pound fishing line and Bobs Buckles The bomb aiming site at the front was also scratch built as the kit one was rather oversized Thanks for looking Vince. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonymousER99 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Holy Crap Veebe! What a stunning build!! The cowl is especially nice as it has the perfect sheen to it. The bombs look awful good as well. Just a great build overall. I also have to comment on the spectacular photography. It looks like it is from a professional studio. Well done all the way round.

copey Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Nice one Vince, It's taken me longer to paint the bang seat for the corsair....(which I still have yet to finish and install) than you you to start and finish a kit. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
