Very nice Chris, I wish the lighting would have been better to see the detail. I am always impressed by models completed by an individual.

Re: albacore and barracuda 1/72 scale

Pics were taken outside as better lighting .. can thank great british weather for that .. can't take anymore as shipped today to the new owner .. It is only a cheap camera .. $50 .. i cant justify buying an expensive one as i only use it for modelling shots

Looks like some real nice work Chris. Thanks for posting them. I really like the more unusual aircraft and would love to see them available in die cast. Unfortunately I think the market would consist only of me.

So Chris, you did the Fulmar and other cool planes in DH's collection? Really nice stuff! We need to get DH to get some good pics to see the work in detail.

Re: albacore and barracuda 1/72 scale

These are the 1st two that DH has asked me to do , he has asked if i would do more , i build whatever is sent ... i wish he was nearer as postage would be cheaper .. an example i double boxed models and weighed in at 1 kg .. to airmail was approx £10 ..$20 to Ireland .. airmail .. so i assume it would be same to U.S
