Made a start on the Chipmunk, pilots painted and wings tuck together ready for the fuselage to go on the top. 🙂

Thanks to Djordje N for your interest. 👍

Nice work on the pilots, Guy! I sanded down the oversized-rivets on my builds. I have a couple of the Airfix Chippies in the stash, and managed to get a new-tool AZ kit for cheap at a model show earlier his year.

Fuselage and tail now on. Next will be primer and pre-shading. 🙂

Thanks Villiers, Andy and Gordon for your kind comments and interest. 👍
@ Andy Considering the age of the tool, the moulds aren't too bad with only a bit of flash here and there.
@ Gordon, the rivets are a bit big! What is the AZ model like?

Thanks Villiers, Marius, Francois C and Andrew B for your interest and likes. Hopefully, I can do justice to the model. 👍

Declare this one now completed. The aircraft denotes one flown at RAF Leuchars in the early 1970s. The number is wrong of course. 👍
