pacificmustang Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) You're killing me Wal!! I cannot even get one finished!! I remember seeing these flying around Jandakot years and years ago. Always thought it was the PMG/Telecom plane because it had -what I thought at the time- phone on the tail Good job. Thank God The Dockers don't have their own a/c otherwise you might feel compelled to do that too, and that would just be a ridiculous waste of time Bruce Edited March 16, 2012 by pacificmustang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallyinoz Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hello fellow glue sniffers, I hope you are all keeping well, recently I have been asked about this project and noted that the pictures are long gone because of my rejecting photobucket's changed payment terms quite some years ago, I have queries about this conversion in the past but I was unable to repost the pictures because they had been lost from my pcs and laptops over the years...until recently when they surfaced like the dead sea scrolls albeit hidden in an anonymous file in a backup drive rather than a clay pot. Anyhow attached below is a link to a Flickr album dedicated to this conversion for your reference..cheers wally 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 That makes a change from camouflage! It looks very neat and tidy. Congratulations on finding the photos. I presume the actual model is lost to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Glad you re-posted via another photo host. I don't think I was a regular visitor in 2012, so I missed the 'bucket pics. Fantastic Baron, Mate! Brilliant! 👏👏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianwau Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I've searched - but can't find any commentary on how you did those windows. Just a hint on Flickr (see shared image) that you might have 'poured' them? Care to share the technique? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
