PZL P.24M, IIIrd Fighter Squadron, lt Thadeus Urbanczyk, Médenine, Tunisia 1941
What if 2nd World War had begun earlier? Would be possible that polish pilots would fly on P.24-s instead of Spitfires? Maybe :)
Mirage model was modified. I've used C47 prop and scratchbuild spinner from fuel tank. MG barrels, gunsight and Venturi tube are from Master. I bought base many years ago on garage sale-it was time to use it :)
Hope you'll like the spats :)

Agreed! That's why I've put it forward for a Whiffie Award. The map might well be Poland...................I've tried enlarging it but it goes all fuzzy on the screen.

He may possibly have been wistfully gazing and reminiscing to his dog about his home area. Rheged's hypothesis/Kit's second law regarding well written backstories applies here.
