    But yeah, I think I’ve actually completed two biplane models in my life, one the Matchbox Supermarine Walrus 30+ years ago and the other, the Revell Spad XIII a few months back. I intend to finish the Matchbox Handley Page Heyford that I’ve mostly built ages ago — hopefully someday soon

      See, biplanes are great, two wings for the price of one !

          Colin another one I've missed. I love the detail the rigging looks great. How people build at this scale always amazes me. I haven't got the patients or the eye sight to even consider building one of these. A great build and one to be very proud of:thumb2:

            Thanks Vaughan. Funny thing was, it was a pig to photograph. But I've just read how you do it on your Me 262 thread. Hopefully I'll get near your standard soon.

              To be honest your photos have come out very well using a black background helps to show up the detail.
