    A very nice base, Bernard @lis
    The various grey shades do look great.

    Out standing build and base Lis. Each build gets better and better. One idea to throw at you , to better focus the viewers eye on the Mossie and her ground crew, what if you where to add some grass on the corner of the base. Perhaps 1/5th of it and place the grass material in a curved/arc pattern. Use a combo of green and brown grass. This would help break up the monotony of repeated squares, give color, create eye movement towards the model and help create the idea/feeling of being at an airfield?

    Well your not going to seed by getting more. I'm glad you liked the idea. This is your build and if I can help make your ideas and your gifts and talents work better for you that is what its all about. You will have a better composition and this Mossie build will look even better.

    @fiveten @stephen-w-towle Work is done. Silver Mossie was good idea I think.

    She looks fabulous to me, @lis! Great build, just got mine started 🙂 The exhaust stains on the engines look great and the silver finish is impeccable.

    Well your grass does add to the subject and the composition and brighten things up. The kit and the crew are out standing as always. The silver Mossie is a great idea.
