Good ones Grant. I wonder if the colours on that one are accurate.

Nice stuff Grant. I've also wondered about those colours.

Yeah, there's a lot about it that is a little left of centre. On the rear fuselage sides forward of the tailplane you can still see the aerial mounts, whcih weren't present on the RAF variants, the turret is missing its mechanism and the fuselage fairing. A lot could be done to make it more representative of an RAF example. Still, it is the only one outside of Australia.
