Bandsaw Steve Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 That’s pretty cool - I like things that save lives! I think that ‘Life Savers’ or ‘life saving equipment’ would be a great topic for a group build.👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthemodeller Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 This looks interesting; I’ve never seen this kit before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpnuts Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 It was released in 2012 so not that new but it looks like a good kit on initial inspection will have a better look when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpnuts Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hi all just thought I would show you what comes with this kit, got to say it's a lot of plastic for the money. No flash and really nicely detailed, looks like a great kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpnuts Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 Ok well I've finally decided on the base for this, first I thought I would have a surfer washed out to sea but I thought this is a German equivalent of the RNLI then I thought are there any surfing beaches in Germany and anyway they wouldn't send a huge ship like this out for a surfer would They? Then I thought what about someone on a lilo but cancelled that idea for the same reasons what about a sinking ship no the dio would have to be huge. Then the kernel of an idea came to me a ww2 air show and maybe there's a mid air collision or engine trouble and the pilot had to ditch but for some reason the canopy wouldn't open so he couldn't bail out. Thunderbirds to the rescue (FAB Virgil thunderbirds are go) sorry got carried away there. I'm going to use the fw190 from the warspite dio as the ditched plane, here's a mock up of how it may look Added some more railings and some lights to the tower Maybe now I've got the base worked out I may enjoy the build a bit more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
