That is a really good model of an interesting subject, the weathering is beautifully done.

Yes...the model kit is super but I don't like the real plane...I saw this plane in a Air show in Arizona 5 years ago...
 
Great job on the Duck!! I've got 2 kits of this crate. I've been wanting to do it in the colors from the movie "Murphy's War". Just haven't had the time........

cool...i've got the dvd of murphy's war, which was actually in british colors...royal blue perhaps? less the engine cowling...

this airfix kit unfortunately is quite inaccurate in certain details, and from what i heard of the octopus brand kit, it's not as detailed either, even with the resin parts thrown in...

oh well...
 
Hey folks,

The "Duck" won 1st prize in the Senior Category of the recent local National Airfix Cup 2010, and also bagged "Best Airfix Kit" as well...
