Simply is not a word that springs to mind. Lovely job well done. Rodders

Reissue from italeri OH58A Kiowa H19 / S55 1/48 jet ranger All going for silly money on EBay. Not available via the 2nd hand places I have looked Rodders Revell whirlwind would do Rodders

I was working in the buying office when the word came through that we had the record the place erupted. Super build well done have you ever thought of doing ZE477 the Lynx 3 prototype? Rodders.

Wonderful lovely subject well portrayed Rodders

What is your opinion of the hobbyboss kit I see it on eBay for around £12 how does it compare to the Airfix or Fujimi ones. I have seen the polish ones and they are a bit basic. The seats look good Rodders

Thank you for your comment you are very kind (and all the other posters as well) Rodders

Thanks Chaps Rodders

Lookin good Rodders

I was looking through the stash when I came across the old matchbox OH-58D and I thought to myself I wonder if I could make it look like a jetranger so I had a go and this is the result. It wont any prizes but it has given me great fun along the way. I have done everything by eye it has not been anywhere near a scale drawing. I wanted it to be recognisable as a Jetranger to anyone I am not fussed if the thing is far from perfect. I always say that my kits are best seen from 5 ft away well in this case make it 7ft. My first conversion for many years. If anyone has the High skid esci jetranger and wants to part with it PM me Rodders

There is a limited run one comes up on ebay. Shame I was really looking forward to this aircraft

lovely build well done as gingerbob says I think it is fine without weathering. Rodders

Works fine in 1/72 This is a 1/72 Revell seaking. For those interested I bought a few cheap photo frames from the local charity shop threw away the picture and the glass. Cut the grass mat to size and there you have it a cheap display base. Rodders

Its funny but I bought some today the call it Hairy Grass (I kid you not) made by Jarvis of stockport there were 3 different shades in the container I bought the "spring mix" came in a roll 1200mm x 600mm for £7.50 from somerton hobbies Rodders

Does anybody do the decals for any of the uk air ambulances? Rodders

These might help Rodders

http://www.modelenginenews.org/ed.2003.07.html#t2 I remember seeing the 1982 winner fired up at the model engineers show in 1982 and it even sounded like a merlin The other thing I remember was a chap had built a V8 engine that was about 4 inches long and that worked as well. I rember being blown away by the V8 because as a miller I understood the engineering that went into it. Must have stayed for an hour watching it. Rodders

In the "old" days rigging could be done with stretched sprue and a heated sewing needle held just underneath the "wire" to tighten it up. Does anyone still use this method? Lovely job on the kit looks very nice Rodders

Really looks the biz Well done Rodders

I remember these when I was starting my apprenticeship at Westlands in the mid 70's Always been my favourite Seaking. Lovely finish Rodders

Just like the real thing.. Rodders

I was building a British airways one but it turned into a real disaster everything that could go wrong did so it hit the bin. I still have the decals and there is a bid on one on ebay at the moment so who knows. Blinking good build well done.
