Hi guys!

I thought no one noticed my new thread. I am really glad you like it.

Mattjack: finding Marauder is no problem just click here and choose from wide range of kits and accessories.

maxidad66: these ‘unusual markings’ on the fuselage is Squadron badge. And the red/white checkerboard is Polish Air Force insignia. After all it’s a Polish construction. As far as I know the planes were also sold to Romania and Turkey (more decal options; unfortunately not available with this kit. Romanian markings are available with other kit of same scale and the same manufacturer).
When I have a chance I’ll post a picture of the interior.
At the moment I am struggling to go on with the scratch built loco I’ve started. I found I am not that much into rail models and it’s hard to finish it. I found I can’t force myself to build a model cause it would be a scrap. So the loco is waiting for better times while I finish Ju 52/3m I started some time ago.

Bunkerbarge: my mates at work said the same, but Lysander’s wing was on top of canopy. In this case pilot was sitting behind the wing. (I wonder what was the visibility like).

Now let me tell you what I don’t like about my model:
1)I shouldn’t have used that thick thread for the antenna
2)I wanted to make weighted wheels but took off a bit too much from the bottom of the main gear.
3)I didn’t let the under wing decals set properly (it was before I discovered Micro Sol).

P.S. My next projects will be better.

Regards,
Marudek
