Surely not and fun to build 🙂 I still have some of these 'jewels' in my stash and hope to build them in the near future.

Great build. I'll be pinching that elastic band technique.

Great result on an old kit, Johan! Very nice!

Thanks for your nice comments and cheering me up! I still have a 'Vickers Vimy Mk IV Heavy Bomber' and a 'Tupolev SB-2 "Katyuska" Bomber' both from Novo in my stash. Maybe I'll try to make a decent build of these two. But before that I will build some Tamiya kits 🙂

Nice work Johan. I could not find enough detail on the cockpit to do much. So, I just added seat belts.

HT6?! 😠 Wow, does anybody remember the Humbrol Authentic paints? 😄

Insignia Yellow. A box load of unopened old Humbrol went for £150 on eBay last week

@matthew...Really? There is a distributor here in Montreal that had shelves of the old Authentic. I always wondered if it would have been worthwhile to buy it and resell to the collectors...

Thank you.
I used 30 year old Humbrol paints in the little tin cans. Still in good condition.
