  1. Very nice indeed! If you have other DH planes planned feel free to make an in-progress series over in the new de Havilland group celebrating 100 years of DH Aircraft. Ill push the star on exit here. Well done!

  2. Lovely model, Paul!
    The Tiger Moth looks simply stunning in those civilian markings!

    • Thank you. I knew I'd be doing a civilian one, but soent ages deciding which. Then this came up and the choice was easy.
      I may do a few others too. Too many great choices. Lol.

  3. Beautiful build. Great colour choice

  4. Compliments on this build, Paul.
    Very accurate modelling.
    This orange scheme suites the Tiger Moth well.

  5. Ahh the first hanger photo is nice, looks like the real thing.

  6. Nicely done! Great looking color scheme.

  7. Very nice build and scheme

  8. Thanks very much everyone. Much appreciated.

  9. Nicely done Paul, good to hear it's an excellent kit.

  10. Nice work, Paul! Great scheme. The only reason I haven’t started mine is that I’ve yet to choose a scheme. Yours is really sharp and attractive.
