Great job but please explain how you did the prop blurs on that pic. Or are they actually moving?

That is very nice indeed. I'm lead to believe an easy way to double stacked rockets lies in the Academy Spitfire XIVe. I've not pulled mine out to check but am filing the info away against the day I attempt something similar ( though not as good ;-) ) to this.

Great stuff; mean and moody portrayal!

Thanks chaps. I had some issues with the u/c, but overall I enjoyed this one.

Clearer photo here....

David, I'm afraid that the prop blur was just camera trickery with the 'finger smudge' tool in PhotoImpression editing.
Steve, I did consider using the Academy Spit rockets, but they didn't have the correct rocket rails for a Banff Mossie and I (wrongly, as it turned out! :roll: ) thought that it would be less hassle to convert the kit ones.

BTW, I strongly recommend the book 'A separate little war' about the Banff wing.
