Lovely John!!

 

[Lee Drennen]

John seated in this mad house you created by choosing a “Wingy” figs looks good very happy to see you here. I hope to get mine going some time soon mojo is low right now.

 

[Mini Me]

Oh no.....don't tell me you're in on this miskeeto thing too Lee.......say it ain't so!

 

[Ian M]

I've posted it else where on here .

Well that kinda defeats the object of a group build. Or any build thread for that matter. Surely if the question is directly related to the build and not a general question, the best place to ask is within the build.

Lovely John!!

Thanks Andrew.

Coming along John. Progress is progress All I’ve done on mine is stick the engine nacelles together and slap on some filler…..I‘ll get back to it when the spitfire varnish is drying…..

As Tim says progress is progress. Primer stage is a nice step forward.

Thanks Dave, he appears to be ok , says his neck hurts a bit.

Managed to assemble the wings onto the body. Not so sure about these wheels .



Will have to stay now, anyway its going to crash land as the photo later.( when I can find it )


Not the best , but not keen on these wingy things , much prefer buildings

 

[Jim R]

Looking the part now John.

much prefer buildings

Ah but you're already an expert at them so what's that they say - "A change is as good as a rest"

 

[The Smythe Meister]

Well it looks like a Mosquito to me John
Started mine this week....planes sure are frustrating at times !!
I like your aircrew sat in there by the way,they do look good
Looking forward to your next update.

It's definitely a Mossie John!! And so what if one wheel is bit wonky!!

It's good to see you having a go at something different!

Keep up the great work.

Andrew
