Dave HumphreysIf you listen carefully you can hear my collection, stash and tools etc going into a skip.
Honestly, this is superb!

Es-haq KhosraviThat's awesome! Are the details scratch built or after markets?

Kerry COXYou will create magic with a 1/48 F-111 Orlando, because this Spitfire is something beautiful for it's scale. 🙂

Ray SeppalaBeautiful work Orlando! 👍
@Kerry, I am sure Dave is jesting about his collection finding a skip, I see a lot of fantastic work like Orlando's and sometimes wonder why I bother. But then I build for myself and try to improve my skills (when I slow down and take my time) with each build. One day I hope my models turn out like this.

Kerry COXRay, I have, on the odd occasion, been tempted to turf the lot, but I sit with a beer and a couple of mates and I can tell them exactly how, when, where and why I did each model in my display cases and then i find myself looking for the next model. Thank God !! LOL 🙂

Hanno KleineckeThat is absolutely unbelievably precise and convincing ! What about these cowling parts, did you scratchbuild them as well ? There so realistic and thin that I don't believe they were furnished in the kit.

Alistair GrahamGreat effort especially at a small scale. Too much work for me to go to that level of detail but great to see someone has the ability, time and patience.
