I may be repeating myself but I really would love to see a documented build of something like this! Great model.



I did a complete WIP on LSP some time ago if your interested!

Cheers
I'd be interested in seeing that if you have a link.

I never saw this back the n - but it is very impressive indeed. So glad you updated the photos links.

Great work, but Airfix have never made any 1/32 aircraft - could you mean Matchbox?

Thanks Ratch

....but I'm not quite sure what you mean when you mention about Airfix/Matchbox?

My only (non) complaint about this forum is that it has so much wonderful information which, because of the passage of time, gets lost to new members (of which I count myself). I'm happy that recent comments brought it back-up to be found using the "View new posts" method. :grin:

Beautifully done work, Fozzy. The cabins are a treat.

I've said it before, you scratch-builders are a talented lot.

That is a very impressive model indeed, the more so as it is scratch built. I am pleased that Photobucket broke your links because by restoring the photos you have shown us newcomers, (of whom I am one), a truly impressive piece of modelling.

Been said, but the Lysander is just superb, museum quality build, very well done indeed!!! :wow :wow :beer:
BTW the 1/32 scale Lysander is from Matchbox (PK-504) not Airfix, a great kit ;-)

Now that is model making...stunning work. How about a 1/30th Wellington to add to the collection?
