Simply stunning mike! Beautifully constructed and finished , it looks totally real and that paint job must have been very tricky. Great build , cheers tony
 
Wow that's tiny! And the finish is incredible! Hats off to you - great job.

Edit: The more I look the more impressive... e.g. the rigging, the wood effect on that tiny prop, etc. Kudos...
 
Bloody brilliant, I too hadn't realised just how small it was.

Impressive photography to top it off!

Thanks for the kind comments, guys, much appreciated.

Incidentally, have I posted this in the wrong place? It was supposed to go in the 'Completed Airplanes' section but doesn't appear in that list. Perhaps a mod with powers could move it please?
 
Just - beautiful. I used to make a lot of biplanes myself in 1:72, but since returning to modelling have been sceptical of the results in this scale. This restores my faith in what can be achieved - though it probably requires a level of skill well beyond mine! The prop is a work of art, and I appreciated the lack of weathering given that the original was a display aircraft. How did you pick out the panels and control surfaces - a pin wash perhaps?
 
That is a creation and a half, a wonderful example of skill. Beautiful workmanship and a stunning creation.

That Mike is a thing of beauty. And at that size. Wow.

Great job.

I'll move this for you, along with that loverly Texan.

You certainly choose some unusual and difficult subjects!

This one has come out about as good as it gets, a very impressive model.

Cheers
