For those that are interested I have added more pics and info to my Mosquito FB Mk VI and Lysander Mk III on-line builds.
The Mosquito is almost at the point of joining the fuselage halves. I've been having some fun with the Aires cockpit set, my initial test fitting didn't reveal that the resin and kit side walls required thinning. It is quite often the case that this has to be done, when using resin but this set didn't appear to need it. When done however everything fits very well, even the fuel filler pipe, that is visible on the rear shelf, lines up with the external engraving on the kit fuselage.
The Lysander is also getting interesting and I'm quite amazed how everything is going together. Not downloaded yet but I have the wheel spats on and I have test fitted the wings (balanced on the 4 pins that support it. When the wheel spats are dry, tomorrow, I will eagerly test fit the wing supports to see if all the reviews were right about the positioning of the locations for them
There are no recent pics for the Val build but that is coming on and I promise an update soon. I have a Spitfire in the final stages and it has been for 3 weeks now. :-)
