Why I picked Kai is was different I think I still have the pamphlet that came with the kit might have some more info.I like to save my instructions and of course left over decals so I have instructions going back 30+ years some people like to save the box top?

Thank You Harv I always appreciate you looking in

Thks Rob the wood work I would like to make money at in retirement if people want to pay.

Thanks Buddy Now I know alot of times people do not want visit an unknown forum so I pulled down some of the pics of interior Mr Edgar Brooks would pop in from time to time and steer me in the right direction.

I finally finished this one up at the tail end of last year the original start was in 2011 here https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/threads/1-24-mk-v-spitfire.28726/ had quite a few setbacks that really killed the project.The plane depicted is "Lima Challenger" she was a donation from Mr. H.L. Woodhouse of Lima, Peru https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/205446986 .I went all out on the copit of this one and some on the engine to which I sealed up for posterity.I had to make all the markings and "Lima Challenger" is a dry transfer each letter at a time.I had to paint the British insignia then paint over it for the fade look.

I got bogged down on the Mossie's engines and needed a distraction for awhile so since their are hardly any Hurri's in the collection Hmnnn...........The kits are the Revell/monogram 1970's,Hobbycraft 1990's and the Italeri it went the blue Malta scheme.The Italeri kit was the nicest of coarse of the three being the newest the other two kits I p/u for $10(both) at Mobile Hobby Town.I can't tell you the number of times I wanted to toss the Revell(pods) was really building it for nostalgia reasons but pushed it through to the end warts and all.The fuselage decals were a PIA thin and the old glue argh!!none are straight me thinks?What next?to many kits I now have more in my collection than HT in Mobile has on their shelves about 300 one of the reasons I am a builder most of the time looking for the aesthetic's of what the viewer sees I thought I show another interest of mine wood work the table is for the backyard when grilling and reading the Book and the Hunt Board is in the house notice the inlays on the legs.SHe is made of sapele,cherry,birch,western cedar(floor inside) maple got about 100 hrs in the piece all mortise/tendon

Peter that pit looks Really Sasweeet! I think you pulling our leg and used a Quinta kit I have p/u four of them of late one for the SH Yak-3

Nice one Sir!

Nice Build and the color looks spot on they almost/did have that pink look after fading.Beautiful!!

That is a Beautiful Build Sir!! Robin Olds was quite the character to think he served Flying in three separate conflicts over 20+ years is a feat in itself.I have always thought I would like to model a plane of his from each conflict.Really Nice!!

A Nice Rendition I have the 202 and 205 in the stash and have built the G55 by PCM

A Nice looking Crate with the right touch of abuse.

Very Nice Gary and so now I know what to expect from the 109

Liking the looks of this one and to boot a British Crate with Noseart is a big plus

That came out Quite Nice John !

What a beautiful representation of an Albatross it Really Works!!If I could be 50% of most you builders here I be content I am really a builder.Keeping an eye on your 109

It looks like a masterpiece to me

Peter thinking this is looking pretty damn good Sir keep hacking at it!! and Martin that vid got me lost for 1/2hr on YT looking at others as well some of the CGI just blows your mind.

I P/U the early Tiger with full interior looks a beast of a model I don't do much in vehicles but they do make a nice diversion.I will be watching to see how a RFM goes together.

All I can say is "Nice!"

I was thinking the same thing but I have it on good advice they are the interior color the fella is the same he is working the restoration of a Mossie in Canada. Kevin

Just very poor in part placement Nice kit extra research was required.This kits instructions on the gear sent me to the books for the tubing forward of the main legs then one part did not look the same at all to what was pictured I give these instructions a B-. Kevin

Not alot to show just sub-assemblies I also have the engines painted black only ATTM.The straps on the tanks black/silver?This is one tight fitting kit so much almost scares you and you have to look at the instructions more than twice been lucky to back out more than once.Have you ever heard the story of the Dragon instructions for the Scharnhorst..............?

Fantastic Work Rowdy!! I get all chicken like when it comes to weathering Kevin

Nice attention to detail would of never crossed my feeble mind Kevin
