Am back at home and thought I’d show off another couple of models from pervious GB’s I’ve done.
This was for a Fleet Air Arm GB a couple of years ago. Using an Accurate Miniatures TBF-1C Avenger and lots and lots of extras to produce an FAA Avenger Mk.I/Tarpon I from the HMAS Victorious around January 1945.
Was a very enjoyable build and I was very happy with the results, and very war weary beast.

Thanks for offer. Have knitting needles here. Looks that we should be using them.
