Airfix 1/72 Folland Gnat (new tool)

Continuing my quick little builds of early jets with this beauty.

Very very nice build, I just needed to add a Master brass pitot tube as the kit one was hopelessly oversized. Added belts and bang-seat pulls too.

Very nicely done, really cute little bugger, nice build in my favorite scale, I like it. The finish and detailing is exceptional. Thanks for posting.

Gnice Gnat!!

Am I correct in assuming construction went without difficulty?

Tho, I do see a faint seam line on the nose...some of those are like ninjas! Always sneaking past us! Blind Fold

Now that I'm here, where am I??

Really nice build on the Gnat, I like the NMF, what did you use for that. I hate seam lines, the bain of my modelling life.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so
