    Hi all,
    The aircraft model is complete.
    Rigged with 0.08 mm diameter mono-filament.
    I added tie down rings to the lower wings.
    Also the pitot static tubes and pipe from the Rotherham pump on the landing gear.

    Now onto the figures and display case,

    Even on a smaller scale, the building looks very nice indeed. The end result is really beautiful. Clean and very nice building.

    @snadbagger Mike - unfathomable that this is 1/48. Paintwork and details are wonderful, and the rigging is astonishing. Figures look great as does the base - the grass looks perfect, too!
