      Hi Colin
      Welcome on board fella!
      Another 1/72 bird! Wow, you guys have good eye sight. Will you be rigging this triplane Colin? If so, that will be some achievement. Either way, best of luck with the build I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
      All the best

      Ive seen less flash in a solar flare Colin. Good luck with it. I cant believe this is a revell kit. I have never had so much flash from a revell kit before, Maybe Ive just been lucky.

      Ok then, took me over an hour to get these few bits looking decent, couldn't find where the flash finished and the model started on some bits ... had to use some images as reference.

      Got the 1st stage of plans built, needed a bit of filler but should look ok when it's sanded and some details replaced.
