Inspired by Andrew's build of the Yak 3, I worked on a new photo backdrop that would be large enough, and then drug out a selection of fighter/attack aircraft to show relative sizes. Now I have to remember where they all belong in the display cases... From right to left and front to back, second photo:
Eduard Yak 3, Accurate Miniatures P-51A, Hasegawa J2M6 Raiden, Tamiya Spitfire Mk. I, Classis Airframes Hawker Hurricane Mk. I fabric wing, Revell Stearman PT-17, Matchbox/Tamiya AD-5, Promodeler P-47N, and Eduard Tempest Mk. V.

That is terrific John. Your new backdrop works quite well. Your selection of aircraft sure lends to some outstanding perspective on different aircraft sizes. Very sharp builds to display as well.

That’s a great group photo John! All designs that were created in a very short period of aviation history, relatively speaking.

Brilliant display John! This is the perfect illustration that confirms why I love having a consistent scale in all my aircraft and armor!
