Finally finished the old Albie, a few pics for your perusal.























As usual any comments gratefully received.

Bring on the Fee.

Cheers

Pete.

Truly brilliant, Pete.  A marvelous bit of modeling all around.  Everything from the wood grain to the chipped cowling to the engine is superb.  Can't wait to see what you do with the Fee.
Cheers,
Bud

Love the work you did on the cowling.
Here's looking to the Fee.

You can join the unofficial Fee GB thats going on. I am tempted a la The Red Baron and get a debt that certain countries in the Eurozone would baulk at and hoard a few WNW kits with the early Fee being high up on the list to start next after my GB entry is completed.

Really, really well done Pete! Your woodwork is superb and the touch of weathering is absolutely perfect. It looks exactly how I wish mine could look. Top drawer all around.

Cheers,

Chris

Thanks for the comments guys.

Gary, I'm looking forward to the Fee, I must admit I've been toying with the idea of building one for some time now.

Cheers

Pete.
