Thank you chaps.
The figurine is from Reedoak. (reedoak.com)
@ ForestFan: The build was rather disappointing and not without troubles...after all, I find it worse than the Airfix!
It actually looks like an updated Airfix kit, with recessed panel lines and a few details in the cockpit. The canopy is as bad as the one from Airfix, unfortunately.
The Airfix kit has a better fit in general.
On the AZ Model I had to retouch the wing root (even more), build up part of the empennage section and canopy/fuselage fit needed extra attention too.
Well...we do not have many options for a Chipmunk in 72nd. It's either or, and both are not up to date with standards you can find nowadays.
Cheers

Thanks Jürgen und Bernhard.
As for the woman, some say it's the owners wife.. :-P
In fact this was my first commission build. The trade off is a flight in the original... looking forward to it 🙂
