Congratulations.

I can only agree: beautifully built and painted.

One sweet build Andrew

Very nice indeed

That's come out great Andrew. Very nice!

Fantastic result.

Fantastic result andrew , great build . The side by side highlights just how fat the Raiden is , the fuselage is twice as wide as the Yak !

That's a great looking model

Excellent result right there Andrew, well done mate.

Very well built and painted. Well done Andrew.

Excellent stuff indeed,love it :thumb2: .

Cracking work Andrew!

Smashing job Andrew :smiling4:

Geoff.

Well Andrew, you've got to be happy with that. Looks great.

Morning gents!

Firstly, I hope you all had a good Christmas day and Father Christmas got you wanted (Waspie - excepted).

Secondly, thank you all for the very generous comments. Coming from such a talented bunch as yourselves it it is very much appreciated!!


JR - Yet again I am truly humbled!! Please pass my thanks onto the committee. I am truly honoured! I hope that the fact that the committee spokesman i.e. your good self, happens to be a complete Soviet WWII nut is purely coincidence!?!? :smiling5:


yak face - Tony, given that you're a confirmed Soviet Wingy nut and have 'Yak' in your user name, I will take that as a real compliment. The Raiden really is fat isn't it? It had a radial engine which of of course often leads towards a chunkier look than an in-line engine - P-47 vs P-51 being an obvious example. However, I seem to recall reading when doing my research that the Raiden's engine had a particularly large diameter even for a radial engine.


Thanks again chaps, your support is most appreciated.

Yours

Andrew

Beautiful result Andrew, and a very interesting comparison between the Yak and the Raiden.
