Here are more pictures about my long term conservation. It is the old Eduard model form with many changes in 1:48. ;D

What a little beauty you've created here, Martin.  I really like all the added details and the weathering is fantastic.
Cheers,
Bud

Martin, it is so convincing. It looks like an airplane that someone has just flown back in from a mission and is simply waiting to be refueled so the pilot can have another shot at the Tommies. 

Bravo, mon ami!!

Cheers from NYC,
Michael

Hello, Martin -

Excellent job on your conversion work to your SSW DIII.   I gather the older Eduard kit of this model present some challenges not evident in your completed workmanship.

Regards
