Chaps. After my Caterham build, this is next on my Bucket List.  An interesting subject, twin engined, fastest piston engined wingy of WW2 and the first to be fitted with an ejector seat. Back soon. |

Very cool! I had the 1/48th scale Monogram kit back in 1976! This will be interesting...

Chaps, welcome one and all. We have a proper start, cockpit and fuel cell are in, painted and cleared with a bit of a wash.  The shiny bit near the front is one of two kit supplied weights to stop her being a tail sitter. Ta |

Chaps. The rear engine is reallly nice and not a bad rendition of the Daimler unit.  Threw some paint and light weathering at it and popped it into place.  Getting quite busy inside now. |

It actually mounts upside down which is a bit mad.

The engine is a nicely detailed part Mence.
