I'm going with "wow". I certainly can't do that.

I think nobody can emulate the precision of Georges' modelling, but this doesn't look too far off! :big_grin:

Fantastic work! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

Please teach me how to turn on a lathe? :)

Cheers,

Marijn

It is really flattering that my humble work is an inspiration to someone. I will follow your build with great interest. In one aspect you have already surpassed my standard - I don't have a lathe and I just used the original funnels (with some improvements).

Beautiful job :thumbs_up_1:

Not the best period of the Tiger in my personal opinion (mine is 1916-1917) ,but your work is stunning.

I agree, but I wanted the visual interest of the deflection scales and the Sopwith. I enjoy the unusual and the strange

Thanks for the compliments guys. Today I’m airbrushing the top coat and soldier on with rigging
