Nice work, BdB ! Love the backstory....hilarious ! It's photo number 6 (of 7 ) that does it for me....just looks right in that pose ! But man, you need a new camera, bigtime ! I also dig your choice of markings, does make the camo stand out.

Cheers !

QuoteBut wouldnt it have been 100x better had it been fitted with spats? ;)
Not 100x better, 100 % cooler. Spats add to the coolness factor by 100%. Or was it 1000% ? That's alot of percent.....

QuoteI have a Czech Omega Hurricane model which has a Griffon engine, I think this would work very well on this project too.

QuoteDefiant development all the way through to post war.  PR, tank buster, or naval variants?
I like the Naval idea.....something along the lines of a Firefly type. I think this may be the inkling of a GB !
