Drdave,
   Nice colour scheme, very nice weathering on the wheels & underwing areas and in fact very nice Model. And.............Those long grass bases are really growing on me!
Cheers,
Lance :)

Truly lovely bluebird! Very nice scheme.
But, please, do your build a favour, invest a couple of pennies in a monochrome paper and take photos against such a background, placing the model not between the camera and the light source (e.g. the first photo is well lit, the last but one is not) . You will see yourself, that this bluebird will then gain yet better looks!

Looking mighty fine Dr. Dave:

I like the scheme and the upper wing is really neat and offsets the blue.  I like the base, simple but effective.  Looking foward to your next set of photo's and the "Snipe".

I do a lot of varooming as well. ;)

Best
Mark
