Paint needs tidying up, but the basics are there.

But the Dunkirk Spitfire is already harassing it!

Are you masking the greenhouse framing or free-handing it? :grin:

Looks good so far though, even better with a Spit on it's tail already :-D
Best wishes

I always enjoy seeing your work, Daz and your Dunkirk builds are among your best!

You've captured the color schemes perfectly and the models themselves appear very well built.

At least built better than I can manage.

Will enjoy seeing more of these works-in-progress.

Oh and if any of you haven't seen Dunkirk yet, it's worth the price of admission and then some!

What a testament to the bravery of those men (both the models and the film)!

Cheers.

I'm considering doing the Dunkirk Heinkel somehow - there's a good few photos of it kicking about on the interweb.

And yes, it is a blinding film. I went to see it again this afternoon, and I'm sure I saw things in it I missed the first time!

Well, the Heinkel's decals are just about all on. I just need to find suitable unit badges to put on before giving it a varnish. The finishing touch is going to be painting the radio code letters black to match the ones in the film.

Oh, and one of these rocked up to the house today....

Great work with the He-111 a-like, Daren. A Buchon? don't think I've ever seen you build one of those before :ha:

I need to tidy up the radio codes, but I don't think it looks too bad!
