Here's a couple of models that I finished recently.

First the AZ Auster III in the colours of a Gliding Club of Victoria Auster in the 1960s

Next the new Sharkit for the Bugatti 100. A nice, crisp little kit with minimalist instructions.

Lovely little builds there! Very timely build with the Bugatti as it's recently flown - which I'm sure you know! Maybe you need the 1/24 Fisher kit now? :D I thought about it and chickened out - BABAWK, BABAWK!

Cheers

:D, They're both very nice Leigh. Was the Bugatti a difficult build? Not to worry, I like both of them.

Regards,
RHB.

Thanks for the suggestion Adam, but that kit is not in the One True Scale so I passed on it. The Sharkit kit is remarkably easy to put together, a few fit problems around getting all the stuff for the cockpit into the cockpit. Also, the instructions are typical French post modern works of art. I had to hunt up lots of pictures of what the real thing looks like to be sure about where the bits and pieces went. When you know that the instructions suddenly make perfect sense.

Thanks for all the research, we all know where to go now for our Bugatti interior stuff now.
