Hello !

 

For a change to modern figures, we did a RAF Caribbean pilot, smoking his pipe :

 

 

Cheers

I’m very pleased to see a non-modern figure Norbert, but can you explain the concept please? It looks like a very useful figure, but what’s a Caribbean figure?

I came accross this history some years ago, didn't hear from it before. Best is to read some article like the following here : https://www.caribbeanaircrew-ww2.com/

Hope it helps, I know the choice of figure is non standard, but it's an opportunity to do something different

Thanks Norbert, pretty much standard RCAF/RAF really then and will fit into a whole host of different modelling dioramas! Excellent.
