The Wooksta!

For it's age, the Matchbox kit is really nice.  Got a few tucked away in various stages.  Always did want to do a later one with retractable gear.

IIRC, the S&M ones were about 15 notes when they came out in 2016, as I'd got one of each boxing, mainly for the decals.  I also got a CMR one for the same price at the same time. Really nice kit.

The MN'Box Provost was one of their better ones for sure, but The Trenches were always a bit of a turn-off for me.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Just raised panel lines on the Provost.

I must be thinking of a different kit then.  :(

Who else did a Provost?

Airframe did a vacform one.

Matchbox one is from 1976. Very restrained raised panel lines but the canopy framing is somewhat heavier.
