Model Cellar figure combination set #48007. WWI British RFC Pilot and mechanic. Though this set could include RAF as well.





As you may note I have changed the poses of each befitting my story line of the DH 2.

". . .and after you put those bolts back in, do replace the upper wing tip. . ." Here the Model Cellar figure set #48007 is used. Slightly modified.

Thank you! This bird took a lot longer than I ever thought it might. October 19, 2008 to June 26, 2015. Never give up never surrender!
