Wingnut Wings Fokker E.111 late
Darby replied to Martin Ford's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
No reason to be nervous with that build. There are only two things in life to be nervous about; the first, Plymouth and secondly entering a Morrisons outlet. -
-LAVOTCHKINE La-15- 1/48 - MARS Models
Darby replied to IPMS19's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
That's out of the ordinary. Nice one. Seems to have an influence of a Ta183 Huckebein about it. -
It's ginger; anything is possible. That's from the voice of experience.

Culdrose. It's the ICAO for it.

Have them every day down at EGDR (including most weekends). Saw the bagger lift off for EGDY. I'm back at DR next week. Enjoy RIAT.

Nice job with different markings from the norm. -

The now defunct but intact Roborough is on the northern outskirts of Plymouth, I can vouchsafe for that; I drove past it twice earlier on this evening. Nice Glad by the way. -
Tirpitz in 1/700 with full PE. First time I'd attempted any PE in this scale. Just finishing off with the last of the halyards to signal deck etc. with EZ line Her Ladyship of late (the cat at the time) decided to galumph her way across work area thus destroying Tirpitz far quicker than an X Craft or other means. I couldn't get angry; it's a cat. It's what they do.

They look rather good. The Hellcat looks rather fetching and somewhat feasible. As for the Hunter; well, I'll let you off seeing as you occasionally visit God's Country. And I don't mean Devon before anybody asks.

Which shire? Cornwall-land often gets referred to as 'The Shire' amongst some colleagues of mine.

It just looks 'right' in IAF markings and scheme. -

Once past Cullompton services on the M5 you're into the 'badlands' area where even the Doones treat with caution -
Safe behind the wire before nightfall.

Hard work rewarded. I've got a Roden Dlll 'on the shelf' but like you say, that three piece wing and the for'ard fuselage are what's keeping it there.

Ruddy marvellous. If you stare at it long enough you'll see a wheelbarrow emerge in 3D. -
Good to see you went with the T2 option. Anything else would be unforgiveable.

Nice to see 568 looking all shiny in that article. Flight was just a 'jolly.' -
Royal Navy Jetstream T2 - 1/144 Welsh Models
Darby replied to Terry1954's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
They turned out well in that scale. I had a flight in '568' back in '89 and all I could see was a great swathe of stratocumulus below in every direction. -
Minicraft 1/48 Grumman XF5F-1 Skyrocket
Darby replied to Amo Aero's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Haven't seen one of those for years; good work. I had the same with the engine to wing join but a bit of filler sorted that. I ended up repainting it as an all over gloss sea blue 'whiffer' with a stinger arrestor and radar pod.
