    A very nice base Lis @lis
    Also the mechanics look nicely detailed, and seem to be usable for a Wellington as well. 😉
    A little car would add a bit more 'activity' to the scene to my opinion.
    So a Jeep would definitely be a good idea.

    Given the pedigree of the Revell kit . . . it really turned out to be a sharp looking build Lis. The sun light in the photos and the grassy field really help in the presentation. The turrets look sharp and really punch up the looks of this forgotten unsung hero of Bomber Command.

    Two thumbs up

    @fiveten @johnb @tcinla @johnb @eb801 @stephen-w-towle Thank you all for the kind words about the model! I will describe even more about working on the model and the model itself, as I will take some photos for headnews. Now I will take on the figurines of mechanics. Hope the effect will be pleasing to the eye. Your comments will be appreciated regarding the color of the uniforms. I bought Medum Blue XF-18 for the RAF uniform. For shirts, the color XF-23. I wonder about the shade of denim pants.

    PS. Few more photos from yesterday.

    After all day work figures are ready. I think denim work trousers turns a little bit too dark (I used olive green from Tamiya).
