The final stretch went faster than I expected. Both Camels are now completed. A few group shots here, the proper galleries in the appropriate section of this forum.
Thank you everybody for watching, leaving kind comments and supporting. Very much appreciated.

Two absolute beauties, Przemo!  In less than 2 1/2 months you've created two masterpieces.  Amazing!
Cheers,
Bud

Thank you for the kind words, Rick and Bud.

In the matter of fact I have been working on these Camels for three months, Bud. But nevermind, I am glad they are completed now.

Two months, three months, what difference does it make, my friend?  I would've spent all year on those two kits and still never achieve such remarkable results.  Sorry, buddy.  You cannot deflate my enthusiasm for these two gems!
Cheers,
Bud

Thank you, Bud, you are very kind indeed. But you exaggerate, too. I have seen many of your models, and they are absolutely remarkable!

Hi Prez:

I saw these on the FB site and commented accordingly there, but; seeing the effort and the step by step process, just adds to the appreciation.  I have built one of these WNW Camels and they are not an easy build and you have done them both justice.  The HG Watson one is especially interesting with the colorful wing markings and the squadron emblem.  Not something you see on a Camel very often.  Another two excellent builds for the collection and a nice Polish Companion to your Balila.

Prze,
   I just went through these and the Completed Models photos again and must comment on your superb painting results. The different "hues" of PC10 and particularly the shading you've employed combine to really take these two subjects beyond the realm of the exceptional to that of the spectacular! Very "clean" and truly inspirational finishing work, I like this pair a lot!
Cheers, and my compliments on a couple of really impressive models! 8) 8)

Przemol, I already said and I need to repeat it: this is a wonderful pair of Camels!

Hat off!

They look great together, I like how they are both not-quite-the same colour, but still convey the overall picture. Very inspiring, though it'll take a while before I get to mine... (USAS boxing)

Thank you, Manni for your kind words. It was truly a great surprise for me, IMHO there were at least two or three other great models submitted as good candidates for this honour.
