As promised folks , weathering done, my theory on the weathering was that she would not be the cleanest of aircraft due to the combination of saltwater and extreme weather conditions therefore I think I may have gone a little OTT  :-\ and made her a very dirty girl  :o

Great job on the weathering Gilly, you've got a superb model to really be proud of here! I made the "jump" from 1:48 to 1:32 almost 7 years ago for the same reasons you cite, and I'm impressed with what you did here in the smaller scale, really nice work!
Cheers,
Lance

Beautiful work Gilly. I wish my Eduard W4 model looked as good as yours. This would be a great kit for 1/32 scale too.
