Classic!

Excellent Dave. Not too shabby for 17 days! Wow!! Tim

Great finish. Congrats! I gotta start building some of these kits. Tim edit - sorry Jon, forgot I'd already commented in the GB section!

Excellent Dave. Beautiful! Tim

Excellent Ralph Just superb. Cheers, Tim

Fantastic pics - the last one really puts the Lanc's size in perspective! cheers, Tim

Hi Rodney, welcome. I'm also building the Tamiya Mk. VIII at the moment, using the Eduard Spitfire Mk. VIII exterior set (32664), WIP build is here in the Pacific War Group Build. I guess this exterior set is included in the Big Ed. It's quite nice and adds some detail. Rolls Royce labels for the Merlin is the best bit so far! Of course the Tamiya kit is so beautiful adding ALL the Eduard bits is optional. It's really up to you. I think that some kits 'need' aftermarket to establish a reasonable level of detail, but for the Tamiya kit it's just icing on the cake. As Erik said - the main thing is - enjoy. cheers, Tim

Looks fantastic. Really nice. Tim

Excellent work - it looks fantastic. Welcome . Tim

Excellent work Frank! It's got the 'wow' factor - you can see this from the first pic. Congrats! cheers, Tim

Nice details on the photos, Erik. Excellent photos can make a good model great. It's well worth the investment! Is that a wartime scheme or..? Tim

Hi Johann, Very nice! Interesting scheme. Tim

Outstanding work Dave! Tim

Nicely done. Love the 'period' pics too.

Looks great John. I've read many of your articles in MAI - always excellent work.

Very nice Gustav! Love the weathering on the leading edges of the wings. Great cockpit too.

Hi Frank, sensational build. Looks fantastic. Great idea for the harness straps.. I'll have to try that one.

Gorgeous build Mike! Looks fantastic and a great scheme too. Thanks for sharing your views on this kit.. the jury is still out for me.. like you, we can pick up the Hasegawa kits cheaply in Hong Kong but your final result looks great.

Very nicely done so far, Jamme. Very sharp work.

Hi Matt, Also, if you look closely at my workbench, you might see that you are missing a key ingredient I'm stating the obvious here... but for German subjects, you'll need a German beer eg. Warsteiner. Several applications may be necessary.

Welcome - fantastic work High quality pictures too. Well done.

The black coffee might make a nice oil & grime wash!?

Even without glasses you can see that is excellent work - well done!

Looks great.

Agreed. Give and take.
