Stefan buysse Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Hi, When I was kid, I saw a picture a USAAF Recce Mosquito. I've always found it fabulous. I gather that this is a variant that's not been done by Tamiya. In the box, it almost looks like two kits: Airfix added the needed new parts to an older classic Mosquito.

Stefan buysse Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hi, Not sure at all if I'll get her done before the end of the GB, but I've started on some sub-assemblies. I know from the Spitfire build that I love the Mr Paint PRU Blue. While I was at Duxford, I went to see the exhibit outside the American AIr Museum that commemorates the USAAF and USN aircraft lost while flying from the UK. It consists of glass panels with a small metal silhouette for each loss. Quite impressive as one walks past panel after panel each full of silhouettes. The last panel had the US Mosquito's, there were 13 of them… Cheers, Stefan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan buysse Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 Hi, Not finished yet, this is just a dry-fit. But considering at how fiddly that landing gear looked, I'm glad I got this far. I plan to build and photograph her in 3 finishes: first just in PRU Blue, then with the red tail and then with the invasion stripes. Mosquito July by StefanBuysse, on Flickr Cheers, Stefan.
