at long last here are some photos of my layout, taken on the 4/1/17.

 

sorry for the blurriness in some of the photos, my camera does not like to autofocus.

 

the pictures are on Imigur as the files are to large for RMweb
as always, please leave your comments about the layout down below, i try to answer them all!

That looks good.

 

Is that a Blenheim 3rd plane from the left?

 

And I expect the local ARP Warden will have something to say about the amount of lights on show...

Thanks Al, I love nice feedback... yes that is a bleinhim, all built myself from airfix kits. I currently have 2 spitfires, a Bolton Paul defiant, a hurricane  and a bleinhim. The lights are not permentant, but little twist candlelight that I just stick to the roofs of the buildings with some good old blue tack, as I couldn't be asked to wire them up, and I want all buildings removable for the sake of transit. Theres been some big changes with the layout of late, I might post an update... its not pretty to say the least... can you think of any constructive criticism that I can keep in mind? Cheers, Brad.

The Blenhiem's not a common model you see on layout. Everyone seems to opts for spits and hurricanes.

Being a pre-war design the bomber woefully out classed by the me-109 & fw190 and in the early stages of the war suffered heavy losses in daylight operation. However it was an innovative design being the first all metal construction fuselage as well as a number of other features such as retractable under carriage and power turrets that all subsequent bomber had.

Many of the Blenhiem's features where carried forward to the Beaufighter, which was an outstanding design.

 

Keep up the good work. The layout look great.
