Mark Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Mike, that is truly superb! I missed the VC7 the first time around and she looks great too, sitting alongside the Boeing 720. So now the bar is set at quite an unattainable height! Oh well, I've still got some time left..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchem Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) ...the bar is set at quite an unattainable height!..... Get outta here Mark ! Just glad I managed to get it finished and stored in the loft hangar before the arrival of the Airbus family from Madrid. Have to admit to almost crash-landing after seeing some of the builds in here. Some amazing stuff and finishes - absolutely mouth-watering. Good luck with the finishing-off and thanks for the comments and support. mike Edited October 3, 2010 by mitchem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidelvy Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Apologies for the work-inflicted hibernation and the lack of comments on everyone else's stunning builds.Managed to finish off my build just in time for the deadline. First view : Finished model with one of the photos that inspired the build (Couldn't quite capture the same lighting conditions as Victoria Falls , but you get the general idea.) Photo of the finished kit on its own (others to be found in the gallery) mike Very nice. As for the lighting, you may not have had Victoria Falls, but what about sunset over Dafen Pond? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnuag Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I have just fopund this thread - very nice indeed - my father worked for Air Rhodesia and painted these aircraft, and my wife and I flew in YNN from Durban to Salisbury in 1974.
