I can see why many of you guys are attracted to the coastal command schemes are they really do show the a/c off rather than painting them 80% black. A lovely crisp looking model.

I'm really pleased that the problem with the tailplane was sorted without a lot of drama. Lovely model Chip, the Coastal Command scheme really does suit those heavy bombers.

Looks great!!

Really pleased that the 'warp' was only an illusion - it relaly the last thing you need at that point of the build...

Congrats on finishing...
