    Ian M's De Havilland Tiger Moth. Airfix 1/48 (papa 695's Bi-plane GB)

    One of Airfix newer offerings this proved to be a rather nice little kit to build. Did I mention little? It is tiny.
    All Paints are Vallejo, built Out the box.
    The build can be found here: https://www.scale-models.co.uk/threa...ix-1-48.42784/
    Here are the pictures of the completed build.

          Very, very nice, Ian. Paintwork looks sublime. Build and rigging aint three bad either.

                    Looks brilliant. Really eye catching colour scheme too.

                      That is a beautiful piece of work. Wait, how did I miss this in the GB?

                      Oh, wait, I didn't. I think it just stopped alerting me at the decal stage

                          Outstanding Ian, and the photography really does it justice.
                          Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                            Thanks to all for the kind words. It was a most enjoyable build... The rigging was a bit of a challenge though but got it done, more or less .
