From what I've seen those kits are impressive. I've built one 1/24 scale kit which was a Trumpeter Bf109 (do NOT make the Trumpy mistake unless you like kits with a very high parts count) and while I had some fun with it it's still too big. Even a tiny aircraft like the 109 takes up my whole dresser top with the case and all.

lol. I wished I had more display room because I probably build more big scale stuff. I would aim more towards Airfix than Trumpeter. Seems like everything is over engineered with Trumpy kits.

Torben! That... is... beyond... words. And most definitely something you should do. Perhaps with a Dora!
With snow... and two Jeeps in the background... the figures....

Building a nice final sheen of “Gris-Gris” Duo Oil Paint over the quite weathered enamel finish. Very subtle. But the effect of light on surface is regained.
