I wasn't intending to make one of them a winner, just that it might be interesting to compare differing colour schemes! ;)

Very very impressive finished model .... makes me want to get my 1/72nd Vulcan out of the box and have a go AND finish my third go at the 1/24th Airfix Spit -made 2 already over the years - improved each one - but I want to make this last one the dogs kahoonas :p Been hanging back hoping I could get a Trumpeter 1/24th 5B - but they are like hens teeth at a reasonable price :p But you've made me want to have another crack \:D/

What airbrush do you use - a pic or link would be nice - been thinking of getting a better one - only have the basic 'Badger' at the moment :ymblushing: :ymblushing:
