Hi Ralph, nice Butcher Bird there! I like the maintenance scene. The "Black Men" are busy working to get it ready for another mission. I've heard many good things about this kit and I even consider to get it, though I already have build two F-8 in 1/48 from Tamiya, the last just recently in December.

Happy modelling!

Hi Ralph, very nice build and diorama. You setup the scene to tell the story really well. The Fw190 looks very good and I think your concrete is exceptionally well done with the cracks and grass.

By the way, what part of Zeeland do you live in? I know the Vlissingen and Middleburg area pretty well.
