Would’ve saved me the trouble of having to build the base.<br />Thanks Stew, you brought back childhood memories of Sturmoviks and Stukas hanging from the bedroom ceiling.Mike Vellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220933613292414697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307474803045409283.post-70773116851248397142019-06-29T00:14:21.996+02:002019-06-29T00:14:21.996+02:00Thanks Norm.

Having done a bit of modelling myself recently (easy stuff), I found it surprising how quickly I fell back into the discipline and joy of it, something of a pleasurable re-discovery I think.<br /><br />EDIT ...

In truth there are several defects which wouldn’t stand up to any serious scrutiny but in the circumstances I have to admit that I’m quite happy with the end result.
