That really is a very special build and what a fantastic finish. Excellent detail and weathering.

Hi Nick,
That's a stunning job. Absolutely fantastic!
Haven't made a kit for a few years, but will be returning to the hobby some time soon.

There is a photo of Typhoon EK139 HH-N "Dirty Dora" being serviced/re-armed in a blast walled dispersal at RAF Colerne, this dispersal is still there though hidden by bushes..
