Latest C-47 came through today. Here are some pics and close ups of the artwork. I like it.













As always, let battle commence......

Very nice but as with a lot of these it looks like the nose is slightly moved after painting . Same thing happened with a Desert Halifax I saw , the cammo demarcation lines are correct but just too high / low according to which side you look .

Thumbs up

Well, it looks like they are getting that windscreen closer. This time it appears they've only missed the center frame piece. (easy fix).

NOW I think Corgi is now ready to start with some of the classic DC-3s. Nothing would make my little heart happier than a 1958 Canadian Pacific one. If Corgi would like some reference, I've got gobs of it!!
