That Derek is a brilliant result. I would never have guessed that it was a 1/72 scale kit.

Great paint that really brings out the detail in the kit, which has been very well built.

love it.

Five very well earned stars from me for the collection.

Like Ian I thought it was 1/48 Derek.

Nice detail especially at that small scale. Very neat indeed.

Superb , precise , skilful work derek, It really does look like its at least 1/48 , loving the details in the radar operators cockpit. I really love the cleaner lines of the mk 1 vixen , without the boom extensions, i really must get myself one of these!!! , cheers tony p.s. 5 stars for the pile !

Thanks everyone for your very generous comments, they are much appreciated.

I see Hannant have this kit on offer at the moment for 1/3off. I think that is nearer its true value. It was an annoying kit, some excellent mouldings spoiled by some very bad mistakes.

A Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year to all. Cheers Derek

oops, missed this. But anyway, really very nice. As others have said, hard to tell it's 1:72.
