the only thing left to do is paint and attach the bombs to the bomb bay and add exhaust stains and a little bit of weathering. Comments welcome.

Wow Cliff looks nice , especially for a truck guy.
Now I assume that Mossie (tail number) was built at a GMC or GMC contractor plant, right?
In all seriousness, that looks really nice. How long has it ben since your last a/c?

Cliff, I am ashamed of you, going to the dark side! And to think I nominated you as user of the month. What are we going to do with you?

I think armor modelers make the best planes cuz we know ho to make real models first then we can play later. hehehehe

Ditto.

But in all seriousness, Roo, this is awesome demonstration of your modeling skill, trucks, scratches, resins, planes. You are one true great modeler.

Pretty impressive Lord Roo.

Now lets see, --->probably one of the best softskin modelers around, originator/developer of resin aftermarket products, scratch artillery builder, and now aircraft.

Your actions speak for themselves. Congrats on this fine build.

Cliff Very nice Mossie, almost too nice to weather ain't it! Your finish came out very flat. What flat finish did you use. My favorite was Floquil flat clear but it is hard to find. I've since ran out. So my flat finishes have not been so flat lately! Fortunately the last couple of a/c had a semi flat finish so it did not affect the outcome. But I do have a couple of projects nearing completion that will be very flat.
TIA
