Yeah ... I like that! I like that very much!    

That's come out really well 

Oh, I like that! Great concept! Marvelous paintjob and very nice weathering job! Very well done.

Even though it took a while to complete (i can relate to that). It really paid off.

Thank guys 
Yep Dave this bugger took much longer than normal for me but it turned out not bad 😀

Now to finish the Buccaneer and the Viggen...I would have worked on em today if the 30C heat would piss off 
Then once there done ..think I'll play with something with tracks 

Good work Phill.
Looks like a bought one.

 

I like that, nice one. 

There's something about a Ventura that a Hudson just doesn't have, it's only a tad longer but it makes all the difference to the 'look' of the airframe.

Love this! Such a great build

Beautiful build. The choice of colours suits it very well. 
We haven't yet seen pictures of your scale reference cat.

Thank you thank you gentlemens   
Lou ill admit..I forgot about my scale cat but I should be able to do something about that shortly 
As for those colours ..yep they worked out really well...they are Vallejo colours...71.405 bs dark sea gray and game colour 72.050 cold gray .
I thought I'd give these colours a try and see how well they worked together..great it  seems 

Right i promised some pics of scale cat and here they be 

These pics will give you some idea of what Buster is like ...it dont matter what or where but if he wants to sit there he'll try it

Nice!

The one beside the ruler looks as if he's about to drop off to sleep... but the one with the Eye Squint in through the window... worrisome. Had you annoyed him in any way? Do you sleep lightly? 

And the last one... yeah, there are various school/reference books that have done the same to me... 

He is a fairly decent sized puddy-tatt, isn't he!

Rick mate he does sleep sitting like that and it's his way of saying gidday 😆
As for annoying him..only when it's for a laugh ..he still plays like a kitten but with the tinge of a psycho 😆 🤣

Yes Sir ..that he is ..huge in fact ..a tad over a metre in lenght.

That's not a 'Scale Reference Cat', that's a 'Scale Reference TIGER!'
