Wow! Thanks ever so much for all the most excellent comments, boys. :thumb2:
Allen. It would mean a lot of butchery to show it 'flying' or on water or even taking off from same. I don't know if I want to alter the model to such an extent. There again.......
Steve. Us brush 'ands must stick together for a simpler, less complicated, cheaper, more reliable, straight forward, old fashioned way of painting models. Gorrit? Who says we are a dying breed.......:tongue-out3:
Thanks again chaps.

Dave, without your help I probably wouldn't have attempted this paint scheme, so thank you. :thumb2:
As for a display shelf, I don't have one, as once photographed, everything gets boxed and up in the loft they go......Waiting for my sons to sling out when I snuff it!

Amen to that Ron - we clearly are the select few!

Great work indeed. That's turned beautifully as always.
As you say a very large plane..... Had always thought them to be much smaller, although in hindsight that's probably looking at the twin engined set up and making assumptions.
Again, great work.
