Latest build. My favourite kit so far since getting back into the hobby. It went together very well.
Lots of detailing in the cockpit,bomb bays and wheel wells especially the oil tanks on the undercarriage struts. Some pictures. Apologies to moderators etc for any errors in upload and thanks for all the work you do on this excellent, friendly and hugely informative site.

Good skills.. well presented..

They are a nice kit, I finished mine as a what-if..

Yeah, done in USAAF makings over glossy nightfighter black,
- as a putative Canada Lend-Lease machine,
& being used as a real tough - interception training exercise target - for P-61 crews..

I've had the pleasure of climbing into the cockpit of a rare original Mosquito - in NZ,
& I'll tell you what, I wouldnt have wanted to try an emergency egress thru that wee door,
esp' not with those props swinging 'round so close..
 
Re Turbo post.I cannot imagine what the detailing is like on a 1:32 kit. That will have to wait until I progress to airbrushing, I don't fancy painting one by hand.

It's actually 1/24 which is even more daunting hence it still sitting in the stash! Nice pic, I do love those Banff Strike Wing birds!
