P...ed of with the Spitfire GB (realised that five years is a definite skills hiatus so just starting the beautiful Mossie) some sprue shots (nothing new here!)and a basic progress shot. Will try harder!

Initial sprint followed by a monumental 'flop' mate!

Been involved in building works at my wife's Victorian school for a couple of weeks; budgets are so minimal that this is the only way that cash can be saved for the benefit of the children's education - especially considering the attitudes of Local Authority and Insurance Companies! :angry: As a result I've not had much time at the bench; hopefully I can catch up after this week is over - providing my dogs don't expect several days of undivided attention!

Looking good Steve. I’m at a similar stage, just a little behind as I’m still painted internals…

Steve,

Coming on very nicely! I'm not that far behind you.

Hoping to have it finished this afternoon.

Keep up the good work.

Here's a little progress; still building at school so very little time on the bench, two halves of the forward fuselage with some more way to go (detail and wiring to the rear of the control panel for example) then close up and onwards and upwards! The astute may notice a great wodge of filler on the dinghy hatch - over enthusiastic removal of the mould seam which (hopefully) I can square away. Sh..te I know but don't criticise too much as I'm very sensitive at the moment!

Sorry I missed the start but I’ll sit with the rabble. You’re making a great job of it
