Pictures as promised, took a day or two to get time to get my 'photo studio' out. This is actually two bits of white card but it's great for pictures. The delay had absolutely nothing to do with me messing up the rudder decals and then forgetting to paint the stripes on the tail. True story...

Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!!

Thanks Iggie. I did make the mistake of super gluing some of the wires in and then realising another wire needed to go through the same hole!!. Luckily the struts etc took to being drilled out again without letting go of the first wire. Phew! I do have the Fokker DR.1 in the same scale that I picked up at Coventry. If the Fokker GB goes ahead I'm sorted.
