Gloster Pioneer 1/48
This is my rendition of the Gloster Pioneer in 1/48 scale ,I can’t remember who the kit is by but it was one I had not seen before,I like to display this next the Meteor at club days.Who would have thought this funny looking bird would lead to the amazing looking aircraft we see today, it’s the kind of Grand-daddy of them all.

It was a Special Hobby release in about 1999. You’ve made it look very nice.
