Nice! From what I've seen of some build reviews, the kit is a corker. I think I've got some colour pics of Gabby's kite, if they're of use Wayne? Certainly got profiles and B&W pics.
 
Nice buy Wayne, I dont got no 1/32 but I got 1/72! :)

Thanks Woj, they are really nice for $7 each. Recessed panels, nice quality, and the bull / chief head are kick ass!
 
They llook very good generally.As memory serves the decal with the bull for the Revell kit is incorrect.Of course there are small incorrections but both models can be built out of box without correction of them.If you use a few PE details and rasin additions to them the success is guaranteed.

Dont think I will buy PE or resin for a 1/72, I would for a 1/32 and or nice 1/48. Will just build these buggers, hope the fit aint bad!
 
Got my EE Lightning book today....:D Well worth the price just for the colour profiles!:shock:8)

Spot on Red One! I feel a kite from 'ErPrG 53', 1944, coming on!
Wayne, I'll dig some stuff out and e-mail it; got loads of colour profiles of the 56th, and colour shots in another book. Might get it done tonight (Thursday), if not it'll be by the weekend. Don't know if you'll need it , as you'll probably know already, but I have the M.I.S. build and review (2 builds) for this kit, pointing out any minor errors, and which cockpit floor is which for the various block numbers. Shout if you want that too.
