    Happy Holidays to all!

    On my workbench: a trio of cardstock (paper) Grumman F4F-3 Wildcats at 1/200 scale (wingspan slightly more than 2.25 inches).

    Still an odd job or two needed to finish off, but I'll probably never get around to it. So here, at last, are six Sopwith Camels of Flight B, RNAS 9, in 1917, as near as I can work out the details. Maud II (Stackard) is an Ares model, with just the cowling and wheel covers repainted. The rest are Ares conversions. Decals for Dorothy and Doris were provided by Keith Upton, the rest were hand painted except for Reg. numbers where the decals were provided again by Keith or by Miscmini. Paints are all Vallejo.

    Details souced mainly from Cross & Cockade. Colours from them too although we shall probably never know these for certain - I happen to like the scheme so have gone with it.

    Very impressive Mike.
    You have a good steady hand there.
    It is great to see the flight of six.
