You did a superb job on that build.  Beautiful photos of such a unique aircraft.

Very nice work, not something you see everyday and you've done a masterful job on her.

Very cool subject to model.

Your seam work is outstanding, not even a hint of a seam anywhere, and the home made decals are exceptional.

Airfix 1/72 Islander/Defender

Hi , this is my latest build, an Airfix Islander/Defender of the 15th Strike Wing, Philippine Airforce. I shaved off the rivets from the entire model and painted it with Model Master Helo Drab. I also inserted millions of stainless steel ball bearings in the nose of this kit to prevent it from sitting on her bum. Decals are home printed. Critique are welcome and many thanks for looking.
