Ian, I know there's plenty of time for the build, but I thought it only right to register my contribution.

Thank you Ron. Very nice of you to join in old chap.

I originally put my name down to help reach the magic 10 members for the build to go ahead - Then promptly forgot!:upside:

It was only yesterday as I was wandering around the forum that I noticed I hadn't informed you. Sorry old boy.

Nice choice of kit. I will be interested to hear your views on the detail and fit

No issues with the kit. Bit of cleaning up and fitting to do. But who wants a kit that just falls together, not me. Rather an old kit me thinks, because a lot of detail is moulded in.....The whole tail wheel workings for instance.

Ready for the first brush coating. I haven't decided what just yet. I'm not going to prime it first - No need.

I recognise that ploughed field ... er ... coffee cup! Is that what you're gonna use for a base for this little gem?

 

[spanner570]

Thanks chaps.
Yes, indeedy Dave, one Cosford coffee cup. It was the only thing to hand wide enough to sit my chopper on!!

I've finished the model, so I'll post it up shortly.

Cheers.
Ron
