        A truly lovely result Andy. Your chosen scheme is very apt for the type. If social media can't appreciate it for what it is then that's their loss.

          What a wonderful little build. The paintwork is 110% top nice work all round Andy.
          As for the (Anti)social media, they probably dont know the difference between the German Swastika and the Finnish Hakaristi. Which was in use by Finland befor the hysterical fanatic adopted it as the symbol for his mob. I digress:

          A great build Andy. For someone that was/is not an aircraft guy, you make and paint them extremely well.

            Thanks gents, I really enjoyed painting this little one.

            As for the markings, I think it's the robot algorithms that just recognise the shape. Better safe than sorry :thumb2:

            Ian - looking at my display shelf I think I have just as many flyers as ground vehicles now :tears-of-joy:

              I like the look of this loads. A brilliant finish. Big engine and little airframe, I hope it was a hoot to fly as well.

                          Thanks Paul, that means a lot!

                          With so many great modellers like yourself on here I'm inspired to get better. I just need to curb my enthusiasm of rushing to a finish and spend more time on the details :smiling3:
