Has he done the full scale Spitfire model yet? I think I missed the 1st episode in the series.

Hi Garry,

5 years behind you mate, but having just watched the intro to the Airfix episode, I made at least 3 of the kits he showed! That Hussar was a right pain I remember....
Wish I had the time, patience and eyesight to do it all again. :thumbsup:
