    Eduard Profipack edition 1/72 F6F-5N Nightfigher

    Hi Guys thought I'd join in on this one and as I'm late to the party all the usual suspects had been chosen. So with limited choices at the lms I came up with this little number. Great to be aboard. The box art work and the bits pictures to follow. Cheers John

              Plodding along with this in between other builds. A little more progress made as I've got the PE finished in the cockpit. My first encounter with PE and at this scale probably not one of my wisest choices. Strangely though I've enjoyed the small fiddly bits and feel great satisfaction of managing to get them all glued down. I'll definitely be doing another but I'll probably up the scale to 1/48. I'll be keeping my eyes open at the fourth coming model shows for the 1/72 bargain buy profipacks in the future.Click image for larger version

                John,
                The etch work looks spot on.

                        That's an incredible amount of detail in such a tiny space. Very nice.

                            's funny you know. I'm sure you didn't have a pair of microscopes for eyes when we met at Coventry. You must have done though to manage this tiny stuff. Just goes to show how little I notice!
