Thank you Colin, it was fun to do as well. Think I will try a spitfire next give me a break from German planes. I was treated to the Grace Spitfire a fortnight ago at the Seething air show so thinks its about time I made one.

Cheers Ian this one was very satisfying to make.Seem to be spending all my spare cash on my model collection at the moment but its better then spending it on many other things I can think of. Quite tempted to make a little scene with pilots and ground crew next time round.

Thank you Trey, I have learned a lot from making all these German Planes and trying out some weathering on this one was interesting. I used my wife's artists pastel chalks which are great for weathering. I scrape a little from them with my knife and add some water with a drop of washing up liquid also found this great tutorial on it simple to do but really helps improve things. Still got lots to learn but enjoying it all.
