Don't know if you've seen these yet, been out a few weeks now -
Apache(?) - Ed Macy,
"Apache Dawn" - ?
"Joint Force Harrier" - Ade Orchard.
Got a loan of the Harrier book from Stephen and was glued to it by page 5 on the train home, absolutely brilliant. I've also heard good reports about both Apache titles too!
WH Smiths have good deals on these just now, and Amazon were doing "Apache Dawn" and "Joint Force Harrier" for £18

Seaking is the dog's whatsit's, but am surprised no-one commented on your C-130, thats beautiful!!
Like the Osprey too, wonder what the RAF would call there's?!
Nice wee collection.

Lovely chopper and the base just set's it off nicely. Rigging/antenna look great.
Like the John Wayne impersonator in the door way too!! Could have a good caption contest for whats being said between the crew!
Very nice indeed.
Eng
Firkin what!!!!! How sweet is that........damn I wish I had the patience to do that, the cockpit entry shaft is superb, and the cockpit itself is awesome!
Will be maintaining a watch on this beauty!!
Looking good mate.

PS -
Damn that's me in a nutshell - just fished another 3 kits out the loft today!! LOL
Contact Pierre (aka Madman) If memory serves correct he knocked up some etched fan blades for his A380 a while back, and he may be either able to make you a set, or give you the know how!
Now off to have a look at your build so far - haven't seen it yet!!
Eng
AWESOME an absolutely mind-blowing build, I wouldn't want to part with this beauty,
Top marks, Jen, what's next coz I can't wait for more like this!!

Ref Richards drawing above I thought that a fabric hood with a lightweight wooden frame and a hangar could provide the ideal cover/storage solution.
Someone had posted a pic on one of the forums where they'd used one of those cheap fabric/tent pole style portable wardrobe thingy's you get in IKEA as they're spraybooth, even a half of one of these over the top would probably help.
I'm also racking my brains as to a quick, portable spray booth and extraction system, so the more idea's that are batted about the better!!
Eng
Just a thought, but if you have a bench that is pretty much just a board with 4 legs, why not cut a section out the middle, mount the extractor hood underneath in such a way that to use it all you have to do is lift the center panel out of the bench, dangle said hanger/fabric cover over the top and VOILA' an extraction facility easy to store/hide?
Just a thought I'll get my...........

Saw this on the table at Glasgow show on Saturday and I must admit the photo's just don't do it justice, this is a work of art when seen in the "plastic" - Absolutely beautiful, even more stunning now that I know it's all scratchbuilt!! Awesome piece of work.

Pic's of the Merlin chuntering along at what looks like "full chat" with the cliff's and sea in the background are fantastic! But the Prestwick Seaking photo's will make for good reference pic's for one of my many projects, love the one of it lifting off with the Merlin in the background.
Great pic's and looked like a rather good day out.
Cheers for posting piccy's

I've got one of these part built, and kinda lost interest!! Will get round to finishing it one of these days. Even bought a Revell 1/144 Apache to have partially dismantled being hauled into the nose!
