    A trio of Mossies

    This is my trio of Mossies. I have just completed the 1/48. It is my first tamiya plane. It went together well.
    The 1/32 and 1/72 are both revell. All three are brush painted with revell acrylics.
    Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did building them.Click image for larger version

      You can do a forced perspective now when the smallest is in the back :smiling6:...

      Kind regards, Steven

        Looking very nice indeed. Well done. just bought my first Mossie (1/72) and that's not the smallest kit in world, so it gives a real idea as to how big the 1/32 one is.

        Again well done.

          The 1/32 is 20" wingspan and 15" length.

                They look fabby Paul. What did you think of the Revell kit? It's way cheaper than Tamiya (and older) but i was thinking of getting the Grey Matters solid nose conversion for it.

                  I thought the revell was very good value for money. I normally build revell as they got my budget. I do build other makes but revell is my main one. The mosquitoes went well, with no major fit worries, probably a little filler on the wing joins, but apart from that, all ok.

                      The Mosquito, I think I've said before, it's probably my favourite aircraft. And then you present three for viewing. Great job.

                        Have heard that the 1/32 Mossies from Revell are a bit short and fat but seeing it next to the Tamiya one I can't see what all the fuss is about.
                        Three great mossies there. Brush painted ? Bloody good job!

                          Thanks. Certainly are brush painted. I have an airbrush, not used it yet. I find brush painting quite therapeutic.
