I personally liked them, specially the Lanc. Have a question though. Why don't you paint the frames?

Why don't you paint the frames?

at the time i just wasnt very good and didnt have a steady hand.the lancaster i wolud like to do again with the wheels down and also all the american and britsh 4 engined bombers all with the wheels down.and if any of you were wondering in the 1st pic the plane on the right is burnt out,and if you see the rear tail wings are not a-lined together it is because i never had the patinces (spelling) to sit there and hold it.

hi matt! two things really, firstly you seem to have ended up with my sig line in your original post, and second its usually easier to chock up droopy parts rather than sit there holding them, check out this pic, the wings had a really sloppy fit so i put a knife and scissors under them to keep them straight and left them overnight

That a nice looking collection youve got there.
Arent the sharks teeth decals on the P40 cool?
I agree with painting the canopy frames.Its not as hard as it might seem and makes a big difference.
Give it a go,,its quite easy to clean up any mistakes and looks the business.
