    The Smythemeister`s Mossie

    Just a few pics Guys,.......
    .... After all,i`m not much of a plane builder,although i AM getting more and more into them!!:dizzy:
    My favourite,(and in my mind,my best bit of the build!),was the cockpit area,and the two crew members.... hence this first AWFUL expanded,picture of said area.....

    That deserves at least to go on the second shelf up.

        Very nicely done Andy, a great job.

        I've got the 1/72 version of this in the and will be doing the same plane - EG-T - as you.

        Very well done.

              Cheers Tim,
              Not being hard on myself,as I said,I am actually fairly happy with it... I just know that I'm barely starting out on this wingy thing road

                    It looks a lot more than just fun, it looks quite splendid.

                            Great looking model. Definitely no where near bottom shelf.

                              Well Mr. Smiff, I have to agree with the guys here about your Mossie. A nicely done rendition of a classic wing thingy. The only fault I see is the finish may be a bit too glossy, but that's no reason to bottom shelf it, Andy...Fine job Sir!!!
