  1. Woomera Meteor U. Mk.21A – 1/48 Airfix F.8 + Red Roo Conversion I have certainly been looking forward to this GB. The Red and White Woomera Meteor U. 16 and 21's manned/unmanned drones have always looked special to me. They also hold special interest as a regular visitor to Woomera, just a short drive off the Stuart Highway, to grab a wonderful big breakfast at the Woomera Heritage and Visitor Information Centre on our way to Coober Pedy. This year has been quite a busy one for me on other matters with frustratingly little time at the modelling bench. My 2022 Gallery completion rate is quite poor. I have set myself the goal of completing this one within time. Keep the conversion simple. Limit the enhancements. So, with the 1/48 Airfix F.8 kit and the Red Roo conversion kit in hand, let’s build a Woomera U. Mk.21A. Red Roo provide several marking options including the U. Mk.16 and the 21A options. I have opted for the asymmetric red/white scheme of A77-882 (WK937). The Red Roo kit gives detailed instructions on this and special thanks to @Ed Russell @Magpie22 and @Shorty84 for further evidence supporting the scheme. Starting with the usual box of plastic. With the fuselage and wings already separated for some dry fitting. It is a lovely kit. Excellent fit and appears to be in a harder plastic than some Airfix like the disappointing Sea Fury. This kit has fine detail and is a better material to work with. The plastic does have what appears to be quite a significant mould stipple effect. I think it will be OK under some paint and a light polish if need be. The Red Roo kit is excellent with everything in the box and very detailed 18 page instructions. Plus a good collection of decals to complement the Airfix roundels. Add to that some Eduard PE (I'll probably use very little of this) and a CMK MB Mk.2 ejection seat (gorgeous) and we're ready to start. Let’s blitz this one and get it into the Gallery. Roll on the weekend. Ray
  2. My first (and hopefully not my last) entry will be the Heller 1/48 B/C kit converted to a D with the Red Roo conversion. Decals will come from the Caracal RAAF Mirage sheet. As I recall I have removed some parts of a sprue and attempted to start rescribing. I will dig the kit out and post some pictures shortly. From ADF Serials Website My photo
