Rob, I soon realised……..you need three hands plus the Hubble telescope…….one done……three to go…

Appreciated Hubert, so wish someone out there would do a large scale Lizzie, she is unique in her looks……..

Thanks Rob, I’m going to do the SOE scheme so black beneath. It’s more the glazing, never like adding it in case paint creeps in……decision time I guess…

Getting close now to booth time. Question is fit the wing before or after……..

So it’s been awhile……..with the Lysander coming close to booth time time to dust down the F4F-3……my first Trumpy build at this scale. Their instructions do need a little tweaking…..anyway……cockpit is a little sparse but very little is seen when closed up..the belts are what I found in the spares box, so please do not shoot the messenger……engine with Eduard updates. The next big job is the flaps, had a complete brain fart earlier in the build posts in not noticing the AM was for flaps and not aerilons……have clean the flaps first including injection marks…….stay tuned ……

I just read the instructions, it says at the bottom of them built that the prototype was built and photographed by James Hatch, is this out very own James?

Rob, loving the build. Like Ernie I to fell foul of the dreaded planking. I was doing the tiny Artesania Latina Bounty Jolly Boat and completely screwed the planking up. At the time I think I was rushing and was only returning to plastic let alone wood modelling. Going follow your build and then re-appraise if my lack of skill could actually complete one. Looking forward to the next update….

Stunning Jerry, never built a 262, you have me looking at big 262’s now…..love the camo…..

Congratulations Cees, absolutely stunning, love, the loved but weathered look of this one.

Great build Dennis, you do not see many Hurricanes built up. Love the subtle weathering, stunning build, congrats…..

Stunning as ever John, always amazes me how flimsy the nose wheel assembly looks, i reckon a hard landing and you’re chewing that prop up……

Dean, welcome to LSM, always good to see new faces. Please post some in progress pictures of your build …….

John sublime finish and another almost complete…….

Another masterclass about to start, looking forward to this as I haven’t seen many in depth builds of a 108 and especially of the Eduard boxing.

Smitty, one hundred percent behind this, unfortunately I haven’t one east European genre kit of any sort. I’ll have a gander at evilbay, I’ll follow the builds of course…….

Kriss, looking good, very tempting to grab one of these……

Gas, you’re on fire. Amazing skill set to have, my figures just look like lumps of not I’m sure of……..

Nacelles look so much better, This is going to be an epic build, I need a Lancaster in my stash…………ohhhhhhh squirrel….

Great finish Kev, congrats…….

One history I know very little of……..

Looks good to me Gaz, a Normandy dio with allied soldiers…….?

……Carl are you sure you have every bit of AM available…..😁…..looking forward to this…….

Just watched Andy’s HHQ video of this………………… that is just…..sorry words fail me……gorgeous….the amount of plastic……

Alan, amazing I’d be over the moon if I could produce one half as good……I need to crack this figure stuff as they do animate a model……

Great start Kriss, the kit looks quite well detailed, looking forward to more progress…..
