Michelle - that is one diminutive bird! The Vichy colors definitely make it eye-catching! Nice looking model - thanks for posting.

Nice job...that EZ line is indeed "easy", isn't it? Of course, "I" would never attempt it. 🙁

EZLine really does make it easy.

Michelle: Great choice of markings! Don't like the government, like the markings. "Vichy pyjamas" Really gives a model something. Where did the markings come from?
I hear those wing struts are not for the clumsy or the faint of heart.
Really nice work!

The markings were one of many in the Xtradecal Tigermoth Part II overseas operators.
The struts are not as good as Airfix's Gladiator which I will be posting soon as well.

That's a cracking job on one of the loveliest biplanes ever made. Welcome onboard at iModeler
