Very nice Ian. I am looking forward to seeing what you can do with the aircraft on this.

Coming to life now Ian, looks great with some paint on it

I’ve now got the flight deck fitted, I only broke two gun barrels, and only needed a little bit of filler for the front end.

This just shows that, with a bit (or a lot) of work, even an ancient kit can turn out pretty good

Only two barrels broke? I'd call that a lucky, 'ahem' break (see what I did there)

Hi Ian, a 1966 kit cannot compare with a later Pitroad kit but you've done a pretty handsome job of it to give the Pitroad a challenge. I do remember making this in my pre teens...1970 and back then it was state of the art. I have the Revell kit with the extras but will need to cut and thin the Island railing structures. They're like the scale of double brick walls.

Cheers,
