mitchem Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 That bottom photo is awesome. The model is pretty damn good too Paul, but you're not going to catch me out - I've already got one in the stash (Hah !) - just need the guts to build it mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David H Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Looks Very Nice Paul. Provided ye have a good plan of attack, i think you could actually have a lot of fun doing the paint scheme, between the silver dope, bare metal, white anti-flash/ solar protection, and off-white coloured composite sections. Do keep us posted. Cheers, david Some limited progress in the last week, although hampered by my loved one dropping it and breaking off the nose and one horizontal stab!Anyway, here she is Full steam ahead comrades!

Paul Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) I've had another disaster! After a coat of primer the model fell off the kitchen table and snapped in two at a major join, repaired now and I'm hoping it won't be too visible. Also lost the very tip of the left wing, so I had to graft a peice of Novo Sea Vixen on. Its not quite the same profile, but it won't look to bad when finished (I hope!). This is turning into a slog, thanks to my clumsyness and general incompetence But some of the sub assembly bits are coming on OK I think I might be able to do this for the deadline, and the workers naturally.

AnonymousFO98 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) Looks like you have recovered it well Paul some builds just seem to test one's patience to the limit don't they keep going mate will be spectacular when she's finished Edited February 20, 2010 by walrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) Had an afternoon of manic spraying yesterday and after much mithril silver its not looking too shabby. Hopefully I can finish her completely for the weekend. Thanks to everyone leaving such motivating comments, it certainly helps when building one of the big boxes from the stash Also, thanks to those that posted reference pics that also really helped Edited February 22, 2010 by Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
