Bigdave22014 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 So what are you going to be doing to each of them? Unless you're going to show us three OOB builds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyverns4 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Nice one and typically redolent with Jonners understatement! Now, what do you think my chances are of snagging one of these beauties when I return home tomorrow, (two weeks off for good behavior!), with this rampant mass purchasing going on!

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 HI Chaps. The 3 Meteors will be built to show off the upcoming Marmaduke Press decals - which I must stress are not printed yet. The plan - is for two models to show 4 schemes ( ie 1 per side) with the 3rd being "proper" LOL. Prior commitments over the Bank Holiday mean I may not be able to do much for the next few days. What I will say about the kit though is that there must be plans for an FR9 on the cards as the nose camera windows are contained on the clear sprue, and at some point the kit must surely be re-released with underwing armament- as the flashed over holes for RPs are there to see on the lower wing inside Both canopies styles are in there too. The ARN-6 radio compass housing for RAAF Meteors is on the clear sprue too, and 2 styles of aileron are in the box - the early singe tab projecting versions, and the later 2 tab flush style - and of course both big and small intakes.

Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Sprue shots please Will take some tomorrow morning, as I'm not at home tonight. Suffice to say the external detail on the kit is lovely. I did a quick text fit of the 1 piece front nacelle with its liner, and its really nice.

AnonymousAA72 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Any idea when the decals will be ready Jonners? And....looking at the art-work of the 19Sqn F8 with the chequer board fin, I think that was roundel blue, not the paler version shown. Edit: This is taken from the Coronation review book, with the late David Howley's artwork. I had to check that this was indeed 19 Sqn and not 43 Sqn! The only photo's I Can find are in B&W, but the tone is identical to the shade In the roundel. The darker shade is also included in the Airfix 1/72 kit and xtradecal sheets, and noted in Fighting Colours. AFAIK the paler shade only came into use on Phantoms. Indeed the initial version of Dark Blue on the FGR2 was all but black... Edited March 24, 2016 by Bill Clark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
