Airfix Curtiss Tomahawk IIb 1/72 scale

[yak face]

Finally got this finished a few days ago ,but Ive been waiting till i'd finished my homemade lightbox to take the pics. So, in summary , this is a lovely little kit from Airfix - good detail inside and out and trouble free construction , but is it a kit I would recommend to a beginner? - no. Anyone who has a few builds under their belt will love it , with a bit of care it makes a great model . However for a new starter or a younger modeller , the previously mentioned huge sprue attachments , spurious colour call outs and very delicate canopies could trip up someone with little or no experience. Anyways , here are a few pics to round off this thread , I hope to put a few more on a 'completed' thread. Thanks to all for following , any comments criticisms as always welcome , cheers tony
