Hi all,
finally the tiny (some could even call it sort of a cute one?) Gnat is done.
And just to so show how tiny the Gnat is, here next the Hellcat in same 1/72 scale...

almost doesn't seem to be the same scale. That was a tiny rascal. Must be why they named it the gnat.

That is a really super looking build Kari - you've done a really nice job of it - Well done.
Great shot of it next to the Hellcat - It really WAS small wasn't it!
Cheers
Stuart

Thanks Cherrylock & Stuart,
yeah, it's small and does not take at all space.. funnily, it "fits" to stand on the wing of the Hellcat!
