bentwaters81tfw Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 My condolences. Sad to lose a fellow modeller. That B-58... if it wasn't for the tyres, I would have sworn it was a real one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody37 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Very sad. Always enjoyed not only his builds, but the way he photographed them. Rest in peace Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanflyer Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Saddened to hear this. There are a few really great modellers who I know personally such as General Melchett, Karl Robinson and Spencer Pollard, and there are several that I've been moved to follow without ever meeting them such as Rod Bettencourt, Peter Doll and Paul Coudeyrette. I hope it'll be some consolation to his family that he'll be missed by many people who never even met him. RIP Paul, Dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 What Dean said The number of lives enhanced by a person in life is a true measure of their worth in life. I reckon Paul did ok by that reckoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan B Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I am very sad to hear this terrible news. As many others have said his model making and photography were second to none, on many examples it was impossible to tell they were not actually the real thing. Please pass on my condolences to his Family and friends. Duncan B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackem01 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 A sad day indeed. Always sad to lose one of our own. My condolences to his family and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Seeing the pictures of Paul's completed B-58 Hustler for the first time is something I have never forgotten. I hadn't appreciated how realistic a completed build could be made to look or how photographs could be used to take that realism even further. I would like to think that, his attention to detail will continue to inspire many others myself included to try to make every build better than our last one. RIP Paul, thanks for the inspiration.
