A bit of history with this stash. I bought this Tamiya 1/72 scale De Havilland Mosquito B.MkVI almost 10 years ago. I never had the change to build it. I was thinking of selling it off until our club had a WW2 group build. Meanwhile, I needed something simple and quick to compensate the slow and difficult Vignette project, so I chose this kit. Complicating things were the yellowing decals. So I bought the Xtradecal sheet. And while waiting for the sheet, I went ahead with constructing it.
The Spook was a Canadian-built B.Mk VI and converted to PR work. It served the USAAF briefly, particularly in the Mediterranean Theatre. It retained the RAF camo work. All the USAAF Mossies where returned to the UK but the fate of The Spook was unknown, some say it crashed landed in North Africa, but some other say it survived the war and was returned.
Apologies if in some of the photos, you can still see some dirt particles, due to my sensor being dirty. There is even a small red spider (second photo) that hopped and walk across the wing area and I wasn't paying attention when I was taking the photo. I later had to Photo-Shopped the spider to make it disappear.
