Fritag Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Ditto all the above praise. Small but perfectly formed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 That is just a wee bit fantastic Ian. i've got both these kits, the Pup I'd kind of expect to come up pretty good looking at it in the box but the Tripe, oh blimey, the Tripe, what you've done with that is firmly in the neighbourhood of miraculous. Its pretty jolly nice too. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaron Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Very small, very precise and very lovely work Ian. Your escapades in 'Modelling at the Molecular Level' are a constant source of pleasure! Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 Many thanks Gents, for your generous comments. I must admit to being pretty happy with the way it's turned out! The forecast is for clear skies later today so I may get some half decent pics...... Ian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greggles.w Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I'll join the chorus: congratulations! Inspirational work Ian, wonderful! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spadgent Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Brilliant work Ian. just had a little bit of a catch up. In awe of your rigging skills, I'll hopefully be able to get my string work up to scratch for the HP. I doubt if it'll look half as good as yours though. bravo. johnny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheonix Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Wholly agree with the above - a wonderfully revamped and detailed model. P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Thanks Greg, Johnny, and P, most appreciated! I finally got back to the bench this morning and finished off the control and tail rigging She's sitting upside down now waiting for the wheels and tailskid to dry, so tomorrow I hope to complete the touchups and post the RFI pics!

Howlindawg Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 That's a little beauty Ian, looking forward to the RFI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Here's the final result..... She's now taken her place in the cabinet, replacing the rather sorry looking Airfix one, which has served its purpose well. More pics in RFI, many thanks to all who have followed along and given encouragement! Ian 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyTiger66 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Betty is very nice indeed Ian, well done The rigging is very nice and looks 'scale'. The overall model just looks light and ready to fly away. Fantastic. TonyT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedB Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Very nice Ian, very nice indeed. I agree with Tony, the rigging's particularly good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pheonix Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Wonderful model Ian. That is one to be truly proud of and a great improvement over the old Airfix offering. Now on to the Ilya Mouramets I suspect? P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
