The model is the 1:48 scale Airfix
kit, purchased at a local model show for about $4.00!. That said, it took almost two
months to turn it into a decent model, including fully detailing the cockpit. It
was only when I'd finished that I realized that most of this detail remained
unseen when the model was complete.

The control surfaces are dropped and the
model is fully rigged with fine piano wire. The model is painted in the drab
camouflage finish of RAF around the time of the 1938 Munich crisis. I thought
this made a change from the highly colorful interwar schemes of the aircraft
generally seen on these aeroplanes.
