    I know how difficult the airfix 1/24 can be loos like you've pulled it off nicely.

      I've heard this kit described as "challenging" and other less polite descriptions, but you've made a great job of it!

            That looks pretty good to me. Some kits you just put together, others you have to build and you built that one very well.
            Nicely painted and weathered as well!

            Thumbs up old chap.

                          That's a splendid build you have there Ian. There's not too much love for this model on the web, but your build shows what can be achieved with a bit of old school modeling.

                            Hi Ian
                            Great result. I doubt whether this kit could be built any better. The weathering is particularly effective.
