    Great choice Allan! The “grey nurse” has some fans around these pages, and a GB wouldn’t be complete without at least one Spitfire. Thanks for joining

    Allan, that kit looks quite detailed for a 1/72 kit. Looking forward for the fuselage and wing junction

    Looking very good from here Allan, also noted that the office looks pretty busy, almost like it’s big brother, the 48 scaler
