This great model is the work of 7-year-old Reece Baker, who is apparently a big Dambusters fan. So, a big ‘Hi Reece’ from all the readers of this blog. It looks as though you will have a terrific future career in model making. (At the rate at which the remake of A Certain Movie is currently proceeding, it could be that a move to New Zealand and a job in the Weta Workshops will be yours for the taking when you are 18!)
