Beautiful Dave!  The finish and weathering and chipping are first rate, and suit your barren base quite well.  I love this simple scheme with a plain, yet intricate, fuselage crest.  Very appealing!  ;D

Best Regards,

Bob

Extremely well done. I like picture no. 14 the most, taken over the elevator. Looks like the real thing!

Magnificent job, Dave!  The weathering is superb and the base really brings it to life.  How did you do the extended exhaust?
Cheers,
Bud

   Lovely work, Dave, particularly the weathering and "desert wear" look. Nice to see a different scheme, certainly no "PC10 Blahs" here! ;)

Agree with others, Dave.

Excellent model and I really like the desert effect base.

Very good base too!

Poor plane, having to operate in that surrounding! I assume the airframe didn't last very long with all those stones and gravel around.
Well done, and something that is not shown every day.

Excellent job, Dave!  Nice to see an unusual subject.  The wear & tear is
really well represented and the desert base fits perfectly.  Well done, my friend!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Really well done! The scheme is excellent and you have portrayed it beautifully! The weathering is perfect for a desert based aircraft. Just Lovely all around!

I completely agree with Ernie - that is a simply superb finish which I would really like to be able to achieve too!
