Tell him well done from me Nige and I too am well impressed with the £2 kit you got there...

Great for a practice kit..... Where did you find that?

Nice to see him taking an interest..... All mine want is electrical goods..... D's, netbooks and android tablets to watch and play minecraft and minion rush on...

Can remember where we got it from but I have seen them in my local hobby shop from time to time the detail is not great but it has recessed panel lines.

He loves doing them and watching me doing them he knows a spit, hurricane and a Me109 and can tell them apart and knows Brit and German markings and it helps teach him a bit of history as I'm doing them so all good.

This is how far we got.

Onto painting tomorrow.
