Well there was a little bit of a delay as I lost this for a while amongst my stash but came across it the other day while I was having a rummage through and decided to finish it so here it is. The base is a bistro gravy lid sprayed up with a bit of grass added. Thanks to everyone who donated the prizes for the raffle at Cosford 2014 Thanks for looking and any comments you leave cheers John View attachment 93015

Great build John that looks really cool and you'd never guess it was so small from those picks

I have a little revell 1/144 hurricane with Baders squadron code I think I might dig it out and give it a bash

 

[stona]

Agreed! Tremendous job at a scale I can hardly even see

Cheers

What a little cutie John! That's top work, and the base looks like wood! You're a marvel of skill & ingenuity

 

[eddiesolo]

That is superb John, at that scale I can only just see the thing. Many small builds I do now just take so long or get forgotten. Top work mate.

Great work John that looks fantastic and the base is spot on for it

 

[Guest]

Amazing I may end up having a go at one these in time if I can see it.

Lovely little Hurricane John, nicely done indeed.

 

[Guest]

Excellent finishing for a very nice model.

 

[Guest]

As someone who has a pair of glasses in just about every dam room and never the right ones for the right purpose to hand the thought of working at this scale simply amazes me. Beautiful job though and a lovely model sat on a perfect little base to set it off nicely.

The Spitfire looks pretty good as well!
