Very tiny & very bright! Nearly had to get the sunglasses out!


1/72 is bad enough, but 1/144 is just plain crazy .... see what I did there?

I've got a funny feeling your trying to tell us this is small Tony. .


Awesome work there mate until the pictures of it in your hand it looks like a 1/72 if not bigger,

The canopy framing looks a little too fat, but given the overall miniature size of the kit that is amazing work and I doubt you could get the framing any thinner without going insane Tony. A shelf space saver that one Great build!

Thanks guys , yes i thought the vertical canopy frames were a bit wide too but theyre quite prominent on the moulding so i couldnt make them any thinner unless i sanded them all off !! Cheees tony

Amazing on any scale but @ 1/144 scale very impressive.I remember doing that hurricane you gave me at Cosford last year so I now how tricky these little suckers can be .

[Guest]

wow is all I can say. the 1/72 one is already small and how you painted the canopy framing is beyond me...outstanding.

Thanks Theuns , I know you really like this aircraft and after building one and doing a bit of background research I can see why , its a very characterful old bird the 'spam can'! cheers tony

[Guest]

I just like it because the NA engineers designed it so that a mechanic can remove the fuselage side pannels and have full access to the "inn-erds" of the plane without having to crawl down a dark cramped fuse and have bits and pieces sticking into your back LOL.
