No, sorry, I did think about it, but had no LED's left.

They're wonderful Dave. I really like them. You must be having such fun with this theme.

I am, but accuracy is a bit lacking, no plans and limited views on photographs.

[kiwichappers]

They look like search lights to me QED they must be search lights.

Wow! the search lights are amazing. I wish I could work that fast.

Well I suppose there are 24 hours in the day. Hmm...

Dave,
Your rate and speed of output is truly awesome!
And long may it continue.

Going back to do some more research on re-sizing photos now...

Looking excellent Dave.

The figures have arrived so its figure building and painting for a few hours.
I am going to use the Tamiya 1:48 British ones.

[Red Lancer]

Really good!

[zak]

Really good!

Hi Howard, the 1:48 figures are tiny.

[Biggles]

Regarding pilot and ground crew figures, the ones that come in the Airfix 'WWII RAF Ground Crew' set are huge by comparison to the Eduard, ICM and white metal Dartmoor Military Models examples...

Painting small (1/48 scale) figures is a whole new modelling discipline for me so if anyone has got any advice/suggestions they would be most welcome!
