These are a few of the commisson builds I am on with at the moment, Anigrand Resin Handley Page HP-115, this is in 1/72 scale, This one will be mounted onto its base shortly This the Anigrand Resin 1/72 Bell X-22A Experimental VTOL aircraft, this one was a hassle to do, the wost bit being that the vacform canopy joined in the middle The final one is A-Models 1/72 Antonov AN-32B

This is the Welsh Models 1/144 Vacform of the Hawker Siddeley HS748 in the livery of Dan Air, the red and blue stripes had to be masked and sprayed, this took my forever to get them equal and the thin white stripe was a swine to do with tape. This is about the 20th vacform I have done and can build them as easily as plastic kits now, I really enjoy doing these. There are more finished aircraft on my website www.pro-modelling.co.uk

Thanks for the comments, I have more finished models on my website www.pro-modelling.co.uk

This is a commission build of the Roden 1/72 scale Fokker Dr.1, the livery the customer chose was quite difficult to achieve with the model being so small and fragile, the red is Tamiya acrylic and the cammo is various oil paints.

I will answer a couple of questions here, the bases are 25mm insulation foam and the printed part are ones that I have on my PC, if anybody wants some of these just let me know and I can email them to you. The Seamew is a pretty easy build, there are quite a few air bubbles but a bit filler fixes those, both of the canopies in the kit were very thin at the sides and really fragile, as thin a s a plastic bag in places, I dipped them several times in klear but they are still very thin and were very difficult to glue, I was going to have them open but this was impossibble, if I had more time I would have filled one with putty to make a mould and plung moulded some myself, I have done this repeatedly with vacform canopies.

These are my latest finished commission builds, there are three 1/144 vacforms and one resin 1/72 scale model, please check out my website for more models www.pro-modelling.co.uk This is Magna Models resin 1/72 Short Seamew, the kit came with no decals so they were either made or added from my spares box. The model is weathered using pastels. This is the Welsh Models vacform 1/144 Handley Page Hastings, all the decals were either made or from my spares. This one is Welsh Models Vacform again and is in 1/144 scale, the model is the aerospatiale ATR-42 and is in AirWales livery. Finally this is Welsh Models again and is 1/144 scale and a vacform, this is the smallest vacform I have ever done and a lot of it had to be scratchbuilt, the livery is for Air Uk 1983

These are the latest commission builds I am on with, the three smaller ones are 1/144 and are by welsh models and are vacuforms and the larger model is a Magna Models resin 1/72 Seamew, this kit had no declas so they had to be made or sourced from my decal collection. I have also just updated my website so please visit www.pro-modelling.co.uk

This is the xtrakit meteor that comes with resin and brass upgrades, the markings are from Xtradecal and depict a Meteor Mk8 from The College of Air warfare, the paints used are xtracrylix and vallejo madel air, the model atill needs weatehringa nd the pilot added, the runway is going to be blurred slightly using the airbrush to give an idea of speed, thsi is a commission build and it is for one of my regular customers. The runway is A4 white card airbrushed and the markings were masked and sprayed. The Meteor is only mounted for the photos and will have a less severe angle when mounted permanently.

Thankyou for all the comments, it is really apprecited.

This is the Revell 1/72 Horten Go229, this is a customer build and just finished.

This is the Anigrand Resin kit of the XC-142, this is a customer build and as with all Anigrand kits was challenging to say the least.

Hi All....I have eventually set up a website for my business, it has taken a while as I have never done anything like this before and it has been a steep learning curve, please have a look and tell me what you think, the address for now is www.pro-models.co.nr/ Ian
