This is my trio of Mossies. I have just completed the 1/48. It is my first tamiya plane. It went together well.
The 1/32 and 1/72 are both revell. All three are brush painted with revell acrylics.
Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did building them.IMG_20200109_220623.jpgIMG_20200109_220524.jpgIMG_20200109_220450.jpgIMG_20200109_220416.jpg

Some fine models Paul :thumb2:
You can do a forced perspective now when the smallest is in the back :smiling6:...

Kind regards, Steven

Looking very nice indeed. Well done. just bought my first Mossie (1/72) and that's not the smallest kit in world, so it gives a real idea as to how big the 1/32 one is.

Again well done.

The 1/32 is 20" wingspan and 15" length.

They look fabby Paul. What did you think of the Revell kit? It's way cheaper than Tamiya (and older) but i was thinking of getting the Grey Matters solid nose conversion for it.

I thought the revell was very good value for money. I normally build revell as they got my budget. I do build other makes but revell is my main one. The mosquitoes went well, with no major fit worries, probably a little filler on the wing joins, but apart from that, all ok.

The Mosquito, I think I've said before, it's probably my favourite aircraft. And then you present three for viewing. Great job.

Have heard that the 1/32 Mossies from Revell are a bit short and fat but seeing it next to the Tamiya one I can't see what all the fuss is about.
Three great mossies there. Brush painted ? Bloody good job!

Thanks. Certainly are brush painted. I have an airbrush, not used it yet. I find brush painting quite therapeutic.
