Great stuff but the second video is "no longer available" - shame.
Tony

You won't regret it, Graham. Just leave something in the shop for me!

Thanks,
That was an old copy of the Sun, which my mum used to read

Are they jealous do you think Mish? Like the colour, what blue is it?

Great work again Sandy. Looking forward to seeing the two together.

Tony

Yeah but this ones on the tarmac and not the grass
and ofcourse its a 747, not as beautiful as a 707, but just as yummy 
Bex
But neither are as yummy as the VC10.

Just had a look at this airport on Google Earth. There are actually 2 airports on the Island with the one where the 747 is landing being the most southern. Both ends of the runway are extremely close to water! There are a number of pictures on google earth worth a look, just click on the camera symbols.

Hello all,
I fought and won with this model. Not the easiest build in the world, but well worth the effort.
Eduard helped with the cockpit details, oils

O.K then Gary - you asked for it !!! Photo taken at a model show in Biggleswade in 2003. It's so big I don't have it out very often.

Geoff.
Some might say that could be boasting! Sorry, I couldn't resist. Model looks seriously good in the picture and I appreciate potential tranport problems but when is she likely to be displayed again?

OK silly question. Must these be printed on WHITE decal sheet, or are we assuming an anti flash white finish, so clear sheet will do as the white will show through on the roundels? My printer doesn't do white.
It all depends if white has been used as a colour or not. If there no white specifically used the any background colour will, and sometimes does anyway, shine thruogh. I wonder what the guys at Model Alliance and Xtradecal think of this?
Mildly dischuffed comes to mind.......

I have been asked by my friend at Bedford model club to pass on his grateful thanks to you for the info and pics you have provided in respect of this topic.

Nice one! Wouldn't it look good as a diorama with a Victor Tanker.
Tony

-
It would certainly stand out!
Tony

I agree its a great build but you could get almost two Airfix ones for the price.
Tony

-
Nice build - got one to start myself.
Finally went for Lion-Roar's LR E350007 resin turret 7 brass barrel upgrade set for main armament.

Much cheaper than WEM's offering, also, you get the brass barrels and blast-bags already to go, and you don't have to guess where to drill the holes for the barrels!
Cheers

Where did you get the Lion roar set from? I too have a Hood to do which I have had for a while but was put off a tad by the comments on release.
Steve
Great work there, patience would seem to be the order of the day. I can see my kit creeping up my already fluid stash. Looking forward to viewing further progress; Take your time!
Tony

Nice work, Matt. I see that you moved the landing lights inboard. I'm still figuring out how I'm going to do that.
Joseph
Joseph
I'm in the process of doing that on mine. In the end I decided to fit the clear bits where airfix would have you put them (done that bit) and drill out new (smaller, as I think the ones in the kit are overscale) lights inboard which I have still to do. Will keep you posted if you wish.

I really like the finish on this one. I was looking for ideas for the 1/48 Hasegawa kit........
Tony

-
Unbelievable! The bar has well and truly been raised. Too high for me but what a pleasure to look at.
Formidable, Pierre.
Tony

Truly inspirational!

I had a problem with the 1/32 Tony last year and contacted Amerang. Not only did they send FOC replacement parts I needed but also one I didn't.

Great stuff, Jon, up to the usual high standard. Are there any pictures of the build on your website?
