Hi Xan!!!!

I missed out completely this thread, Im settling down and unfortunately I keep missing loads of progress in loads of topics... well, enough of my excuses...

Your model, its presentation and your pictures are simply incredible!!!! Hard to believe it is 1/48!!!! Looking forward to see your next builds ;)

From the builders of the full-size 1264. We are absolutely blown away by the model - she looks quite, quite stunning. What an artist you are, Xan. I hope we can meet up soon and see the model. We hope to bring ours to France to fly over the Somme on 1 July next year. Perhaps we could try to meet up then?

Xan,
truly remarkable job - especially on the clear doped linen. Great weathering in all regards, and your attention to detail is excellent.
Cheers,
Gary

Marvellous and I love the build up and presentation.
