Looks very nice indeed. Now we all need to get on Merlin's case, he has one already (see Postman thread).

Cheers, D

I´m a big Airfix fan since they are engeneering nice kits recently. As well as I like Luftwaffe subjects. But after a look at Rowan´s build log it´s not very promising.

No pilots!!! How can you be conscious enough to have a stand and not include pilots??? This is not good Airfix. Seriously, if you want to sell to kids who start small and buildup. Regardless of the detail, figures are required. You've had figures for fifty years. (I built them then) I still put the figures IN. (even if I super detail the cockpit).
