Nice photos Aircav!

Did you see the way that big Air Cadets dio packed up? Each half of it is an L-shaped structure (ground plus sky) and the two halves lock together with wingnuts to make one big box with the details on the inside. Very clever... :thumbsup:

One of those diorama pics had me going for a bit.....

Bloodhounds defending a WWII Spitfire airfield? Eh? What's that about then?

Then I realised it was two DIFFERENT dioramas next door to each other....  :banghead: :banghead:
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! :)

Thanks, I had to wait for my camera to warm up before using it as it had been in the car for most of the day.  :blink:  ;D
I didn't see them pack up but it sounds like a great idea how they have done the base boards.
All the best
