Just plain crazy good work at that scale phil, so much scratch building delight going on - full credit to you mate bringing her alive.

Hello again All, while sorting through my little box's yesterday for my other builds, I cam across some scall metal (Black) anchor chain that must have come with my other Pontos bits, but went missing - didn't know I had it, anyway "question -question" is it worth me removing the plastic kit chain that was painted white, and replacing with this scale Black metal chain?

PD would be cool guess because its the newer of the Two awsome plane though gave some F15s a run for their money.

May have to ditch this Amodel kit for that, although it's the wrong scale for the rest of my Soviet era jets. I have some ICMs and a Kondor of Foxbats and Foxhounds.
Foxbat would be nice - would love to se a log on that.

I think a show has to be one thing at max or another - do a high speed fly through at near supersonic but also do more graceful wing perfomances, the in betweens spoil it modern jets just doing wing slides and power turns are boring to be honest.

Very good display very tight - not a lot of speed but the sound makes up for it.

Evening all, while waiting for the Mossie to have her touch up, and the spit to de-gas, I decided to continue with my seafire - next to work on was to paint the cockpit/seat section - this had the normal colours applied, then a bit of shading/highlighting, then I fitted the seat belts that was in the form of decals, after I gave the whole thing a few coats of flat top coat.

Indeed, I would love to do that.
They even do live displays of car crushing by tanks.

A bit of an update - this afternoon I masked up the top side edges and used my Dark Sea Grey rattle can on the underside of the spit, I started with a gentle mist over, gave it about Ten minutes then built it up till it was smoothly covered, from what I could tell there was no reaction with the Acrylic underneath.

Looking great (one thing I've never been able to do a decent build of) I take my hat off to those who can.
Thank you again, the Eduard kits are considered the top shop build of the spit, and do go together really well.

That's looking amazing (I toyed with the idea of getting the airfix 1/24 scale but since I've never built a decent plane decided not to) this on the other hand looks great.
Thank you so kind, yep its a nice kit - has its issues that need fiddling like the fuselage halves joining, and the engine units fitting them over the wing is a pain, they need filing/sanding and then a bit of filler.
But over all it is a nice kit.

Thanks EG, I think I will have to use a bit of artistic license choose a squadron use the right unit numbers but be a bit flexible with a frame serial, at least it will be 90% correct.
