    Maybe get the hedges not looking so scraggly, try and shape them a tad more, use some PVA and mix with the foliage and then form into small but more square-ish. It could be that they are looking to flat and sprawling.

      Alan, i like it Scott a suggestion if i may, get some fine fishing line and attach it to the spitfires guns, then attach it to parts of the 190 and air brush clear red paint in random flashes to make it look like gun fire. hope you don't mind the suggestion .

                Nicely done Alan, I think that last photo shows the action at its best, the low level chase through the vegetation with the smoke pouring out the FW190. All action.

                        I like it. The way the two aircraft have just flown through the gap in the trees is a nice idea.

                            I love the way the plane is burning but yet it's still being pursued by the other plane, it's tense and action packed even if it's a static model!

                                Thanks guys I'm glad you like it

                                This doesn't exist anymore as I needed bit for other dios and the planes are God knows where

                                Might do a 1/72 scale one though as I do like this
