That is a beautiful piece of work. Wait, how did I miss this in the GB?

Oh, wait, I didn't. I think it just stopped alerting me at the decal stage

One of Airfix newer offerings this proved to be a rather nice little kit to build. Did I mention little? It is tiny.
All Paints are Vallejo, built Out the box.
The build can be found here: https://www.scale-models.co.uk/thre...moth-airfix-1-48-papa-695s-bi-plane-gb.42854/
Here are the pictures of the completed build.

Thanks to all for the kind words. It was a most enjoyable build... The rigging was a bit of a challenge though but got it done, more or less .

A splendid result Ian. Very eye catching too. I noticed this kit when it first came out, now I've seen one built, I might have to invest.
