        Superb job Dave of a seldom modelled aircraft. I know it wasnt a shake and bake but it makes it all the more satisfying when you finally finish it and it looks as good as this does , great build mate , cheers tony

            Thanks everyone for your kind words.The real aircraft suffered from extensive paint flaking due to the aircraft not being given a primer coat.I wasn't able to model that.But it looks good on the shelf next to my Malta Gladiator.

                Great to see a seldom modelled subject, and turning out an excellent one as well.

                  Hi Dave

                  That is fabulous work. I know the trials you went through and that result is nothing short of miraculous. What a turn around.

                  Great stuff and a gong for sure

                  Cheers

                    Was a real treat getting to watch this beauty build out Dave! You've done a great job of it ,especially after the recovery of the salt chipping. The finish looks awesome and the mask job is nice and crisp! Very nicely done Sir!!!

                        It would look good on any shelf, anywhere. Lovely model, you've done a great job putting it together and the painting is beautiful. I too noticed the crisp masking on the 'glass' bits, not always easy to get that to look so good.

                        Cheers

                          How did I miss this!

                          That is really great Dave, a build to be proud of for sure.

                          I rather like the French camouflage, it makes it look very different.
