Andrea Manfroi Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Together with the Re 2005 I recently posted in the Aircraft section of the forum, I really enjoyed building the "big" Vosper my wife and my girls bought me for Christmas last year. I'm not really an expert in maritime modelling anyway I tried my best. Model is basically OOB with some minor scratch built details and it has been painted with airbrush using Tamiya acrylics and a final layer of Tamiya spray matt varnish. The biggest problem now is where to put this "monster" ... Here you are the pictures: Comments and feedback are more than welcome! Thanks for looking.

RNoAF Aerobatic Team Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Memories.... Was stationed on Norwegian Hauk class MTB`s. I was in Bergen, Norway when Richard Branson and his mother brought over a refurbished MTB to Norway. It was FAB!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) Andy, that is a super job you've made, really caught the look of them to my mind. I think you should put it in a large clear case so it won't need dusting & then display it prominently, it deserves to be so shown off. Steve.

Wafu Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Andrea What a great sight too see, a very well build MTB. Buy your wife some shoes and then get yourself a glass case. its to good not to display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
