Hi Zak,

Never seen that on a 1/35th model before!

Painting and then onto building the sponsons.
The detail is really great.
I hope that you can see on the photo that there is even rifling down the gun barrels.
Much respect to the toolmakers. I have a fair idea what they would have to do to achieve that.

Well I have eventually started work on this kit again, sorry for the delay.
It is an excellent kit, but too much interior detail for me.
Took ages to paint and now you can hardly see the inside.
Pictures will follow, I promise.

Photos of progress to date.
Still lots to do.
I left as many hatches and doors open as I could but you can see very little of the detail inside.

Painting continues and while it dries I decided to try to finish all those little projects that are half finished.
Mistake really, its not the way to model, my heart is not really in it so you get what you see.
It is still WW1 related though.
Like Kevin I bought the 1/32 Italeri Sopwith Camel, well I started it, got so far and then back into a box it went. Well here it is, warts and all.
Now onto all those Christmas presents that people think you want.

Hi Zak,
A very nice result, one I hope mine will come close to.

It at the moment has been shelved, again.
I'm going to try and have a 'Yorkshire' themed model ready for October meeting, what will it be?
