No each panel is a piece, not each dial

You know I don't have that much patience.
Sorry about the comment... you think you got strange looks, I'm the one with the cockpit! :-)

Hi Roderick!
Looks better!
Ok! Now I think I have to do a little work on my CR.32 for the "Spanish Civil War" Groupbuild in return!
Thanks for the update! Anyone else building something for the "Teeth" Campaign currently?

Hi Phil,
Great pictures!!! Is this one of the original Grey Nurses? or just an arbitrary Mk VIII / IX repainted.

im not too sure frank, this is a modern pic and if i was that spitfires owner then this scheme would certainly appeal to me, give me a minute and i'll see if there is any info with the pic
*edit* this is the info with this photo
"VH-HET / A58-602/RG-V (cn 6S/581740) This aircraft is the only Spitfire flying in Australia today. Built in ’44 it was shipped to Australia (April ’45), however, this aircraft never saw active service. Restored in ’85 and later acquired by David Lowy (he donated it to Temora Av Museum in 2002). David Lowy asked me to guess where the propeller had been made …. nearly dropped my camera when he said: ‘Germany!’ Apparently a small German company is the only supplier of Spitfire propellers in the world today. Oh… how times change!

"
theres also a couple more pics

Now that my ME-262 is finished and the review pending, I can resume my AVG P-40. Let's see, I have 2 months remaining, right?
Then we can all start our models for
Fighters Under the Midnight Sun I even have a ribbon almost complete.

Thats a great looking Hog Grant.
If you made mistakes on it you hide them well. Because I can't see them. (I wish I could hide my mistakes as well as you do).

Hi Grant!
Well, I'm not a modern aircraft specialist so I won't discuss about accuracy and such things... all I can say is that this is a great looking model! I thank you very much for participating to this Campaign with such a fine entry!
Good luck for your 1/32 P-51D!

Very nice A-10 Grant.
Its given me incentive to get my skills up so that I can build the one I have in my don't-touch-until-I-can-do-it-justice stash.

Stunning A10 Grant, the only thing missing is a ton of weaponry hanging off it.
