That's what I thought, but maybe not( http://modelingmadness.com/reviews/alli ... kerd21.htm; )...even so, the box art is a modern-ish addendum, so, not in keeping with the spirit of the theme. Is the box top to be included as part of the display? I have a MB Hellcat but I can't find the box top. I could recreate the scene from images on the net.

Thanks Brews.

I also have this (minus the instruction sheet). I've never done water or background painting so that would be a new learning curve for me.

The Hellcat would be quite challenge! but would make for a very dramatic diorama

I think the Walrus would make an excellent display though and would have the advantage of being easier to pack for it's transatlantic trip. :grin: I'm sure you could do something really nice with what is still a very nice kit.

I agree, so would you please make the change in the 'projects list' to read MB Supermarine Walrus: underway.
