Well done on two great looking canes in a hurry.

And very quick too. :beer:

Thanks Steve, Sissel, Jeff, Ian, Jaime. It was fun building these two and brought back memories of the pictorial box lids this series used to be sold in. It will never be a silk purse but at least the colours were right.

I'm always in awe of the quality of modelling done in these Blitzbaus. Yours is no exception. Fantastic does not do it justice imo

Really nice David. These may be olde worlde kits and not the most accurate available but they have turned out very well and look sufficiently like Hurricanes to satisfy me!
