I have Eduard AM, some resin rockets and I need to kludge up a radar set for the observer.

 

Maybe something like this:

This should be fun, the Swordfish was pretty amazing aircraft lasting so long in service.

I have not seen an online build of this for a while. Good to see it with invasion stripes.

Yep, you do!

I am horrendously behind schedule, but will persevere!

 

Just too much life, the universe and everything going on right now.
