      Excellent Richard. Those figures are very nice indeed, especially for that scale.

        Thank you Gentlemen, while detail painting I knocked off the pipe and cigarette but will re-attach them after these pre-posed shots. Still the antennae wire left to do and final matt varnish.

        Hope the recipient will be happy with this and finally I have a finished build for 2022. Everything else is WIP unless I count the modified Dingo.

        Cheers,
        Richard aka Wabble

          The deckchair canvas and the ground crew flag and chair. I also added a left ear for the pilot.

          Cheers,

            I think a pose like this is much better and believable.

              Wabble,
              That is another cracking result as we have come to expect.

                Thanks Scottie,
                I just scratched the parachute with putty and masking tape and couldn't wait for it to harden and painted it straight away after placing it on the wing.

                Should be a fraction larger but I'll leave it.

                    Thanks Tim, the kit itself deserves a mention as it's quite detailed and the engraved panel lines fine and still show after a few coats of paint. It has all the right dinks and knobs plus the distinct subtle hump from the fully detailed cockpit to the tail. The moment I opened the box I was hooked and decided on adding the figures to the base. Revell has done a good job on it apart from the clear parts that had some imperfections within the plastic itself.
                    Final pictures will come as soon as I attach the aerial wire.

                    Cheers,
                    Richard aka Wabble

                            In past employment I used a piece of test equipment to test submarine repeaters, the thing was, the front panel was in German, and so was the instruction book. Oh how we laughed....
