  1. Well it all put togeather now and after getting on with the filling. this is not the conversions fault but mine I am nowhere as good as Colin but we perservere The kit is beginning to look like a mk9. Can anyone tell me where I can get the torpedo for the aircraft and mor importantly does anyone have/tell me where i can get the floatation gear for the wheels Masked up for the undercoat of the red I am not sure which Tamaya paint number to use for this any help greatfully recieved. Using Halford white for the undercoat Thats it for now Folks Rodders
  2. Coming on nicely ,windows in, cockpit in and ready for closing Windscreen modified just needs to be finally polished this kit has brought back my mojo And here is one I did earlier Onwards and upwards Rodders
  3. DAMM I have drilled and hollowed it out never mind I have painted it black so hopefully it will be alright. I have removed the grills from the kit and am currently building the cockpit. I am off work at the moment so have plenty of time on my hands and this build has me hooked. I think you may learn how not to do it see the bit about the exhauset above Rodders
  4. Would be nice for an update for this kit the wheels are total ficticious The Kit is rocking horse poo as well I havent seen one for many years Rodders
  5. I have just bought another of yours and I have the heritage HAS9 conversion as well. I chose yours because of the way the main door is done I will use the heritage one to do the MK7 and the nose to do the HCC12. I do prefer the heritage one because that one has the exhaust already hollow whereas the Rotocraft has it solid and getting the exhaust thin was a bit of a nightmare (remember the type of model bodger I am) and was put off the conversion before because of this. How would you suggest that do the intake on the MK7? Rodders
  6. I decied to build the whirlwind after all. I dont do highly detailed models so losing the etch is no big deal I might even find it again it must be in a box somewhere. Donar kit and the converson kit sprues Marked out ready for cutting The nose is going to need some filler to make it akk join up nicely I will keep the door shut Next up get rid of the cooling grills I will use the red and blue/grey colour sheme supplied in the kit It will look nice along the HAR10 I have already. I have the kits and bits to do the MK7 and HCC12 which is what I will be doing after this one. Cockpit and grill next Rodders
  7. Very nice definatly different Rodders
  8. It could have happened !! I love the idea and the execution of your build Did you hand paint most of the markings or are there "aftermarket" for the RC community like the plastice community I do watch the RC communities builds on youtube and its frightening to imagine the cost of some of these aircraft and the hours needed to build them Braver man than me to fly it after that but then again that is the point of building flying models Rodders
  9. I remember seeing these as a kid that used to fly over our house you've made a good job of that Rodders
  10. Like it very much. I have this kit and after looking at yours I will also get rid of all the rivets. Nice to see sought after kits being made and displayed as they should be Well Done Rodders
  11. In the country we used Rookies (Rook scarers) Put 1 in the airfix victorious once and put on the farm pond it it was literly blown to bits Rodders
  12. beautiful well done You nailed this build Rodders
  13. Well done no need for the new airfix offering for you Rodders
  14. Is this the AModel kit. Where did you get the decals from? Nice build nothing wrong with it from what I can see Rodders
  15. Looking at the pictures looks like the 1/32nd kit scaled down. Well done so far Rodders
  16. I have an airfix belvedere that stays in the box because of this problem Rodders
  17. Beautiful pictures I have used the northen lights one as my desktop on my laptop I hope you dont mind. Rodders
  18. I disagree in that the MK4 is the one on the TV most and that will be the one Joe Public will be more familiar with. Rodders (Living at Yeovil 7 miles from Yeovilton)
  19. Detail on the flotation bags look good Rodders
  20. Modelair do a paint set for emergency vehicals if you are interested. Rodders
  21. Looks like you are going to do the skid version I think this one looks much better than the caster version. Rodders
