Now that would be a mash-up. Two great films.

Nice work, the new turret looks great.

Big Willy and Little Willy??

SHINY! Looks great Rob and as others have said, that's a nice recovery on the numbers.

All the angst was worth it Rob as that looks great

Looks brilliant. The 'in progress' shots really do emphasise that these early British cruiser tanks were really just boxes of rivets on wheels.

Damn, that Me410 is waving at me again..... must resist

Yes, the fit of the gun inserts is always woeful on the Trumpy P47s. I've generally always tried to get them aligned as well as possible and try to hide the mess that leaves on the underside where it's less visible.

Might have to use this is my next presentation at work!

Looks great, nicely worn look

Bench time has been very limited recently as my father has been ill and sadly passed away last Wednesday. Did manage to grab some time yesterday just as a distraction from everything else that's needing taken care of and making sure mum is okay. Got the fuselage joined to the wings and as everyone has said, the fit is pretty stellar. No filler needed here. The tape is just to hold a little paint mixing cup over the nose actuator which you have to install stupidly early in proceedings.

Sorry to hear that. I love having pets around but this is always the hardest part. Never gets easier.

Great reference material and just in the nick of time before you printed it

+2 on that

That's a sizeable hole in the ozone layer right there!

Made a start on the next build, the ZM F4D in 1/48. Got the cockpit done so far with the Quinta detail set and everything fits nicely so far. Hopefully getting the fuselage halves together is as smooth.

Have had first hand experience of that one!!

Anyone else got Duelling Banjos going through their head??

Looks like a Minecraft cat!

I've built two Trumpy P47s and those panels are always a complete pain. I'd say that's a very decent effort to get them as smooth as that.

Some great looking builds. I particularly like Obelix with his menhir and whoever did the 'Battle of the Bathtub' has a suitably warped sense of humour.

After the PhotoBucket sh**show I treat all image hosting sites with a large degree of scepticism which is why the direct upload here is so good.

Anyone else getting a 'Content not viewable in your region' message instead of the images here??

I remember my grandmother having a treadle operated Singer like that. It was about 70 years old but still worked perfectly.

How sinister!
