stevehnz Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Wot they all said, a truly stunning piece of modelling in every way, the more so for being a vac form & one of my favourite turbo prop airliners. Pure modelling magic. Steve. 1
mitchem Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Extraordinarily Brilliant and very inspirational Kev ! Can't wait to see what you're going to do in 2015 ! Thanks for sharing. mike 1
dieselweasel Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Kev That is one of the best models I have ever seen you have really set the bar at an all time high, a level I can only wish to aspire to. Many thanks for the build thread and end product superb Jim 1
Mario Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Really an outstanding model! Even more impressing if you know that it is made from a vacu kit. Best regards, Mario 1
philtn Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 VERY nice That is probably the best looking "civilian" aircraft model I have seen in a long while . Very well done mate 1
General Jumbo Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Fantastic - looks absolutely superb! 1
rmcclure Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Good Lord - I'm not normally interested in civil aviation but that's magnificent work. Cheers, Roger 1
woody37 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 One of my favourite builds of 2014 Kev, really enjoyed watching it progress. Pure aviation porn 1
gazza l Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Quality build, looks almost real... one of the best builds I've seen this year. gazza l 1
AnonymousAA72 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 They don't come much better than that! Do they? Superb! Well done! 1
jbpruitt Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 Attention to detail? In spades! Amazing...love the wing vortex generators and windshield wipers...oh and the static discharge wics. 2
Madgepetto Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 That, sir, is spectacular. My modelling mojo is always at low-ebb this time of years and your Vanguard has brought quite a smile to this old model makers face.... Hat's off to you and I think I will just go and hoist a glass to a real work of art. Happy New year! Paul 2
Nigel Heath Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 That is one brilliant looking model, well done Kev. A vacform you say? Surely not. 1
Norman Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 That is just stunning ! i absolutely love it Very very well done I have to say you really put all the ''moaners'' and rivet counters on this ( and other sites) into perspective for me, I just wish i could see that model in the flesh as it were Congratulations 2
marty_hopkirk Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) Fantastic build I bet there are not many 72 Vanguard models knocking about built to this standard - it's a pity the real thing did wear some of the colourful livereis it's older sister did, but that is not your fault. Well done great build. Marty... Edited December 31, 2014 by marty_hopkirk 1
modelglue Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 That is an incredible model. It reminds me of the Nimrod, and before now I was completely ignorant to its existence. Nice work, I hope we see more next year! 1
SimonL Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) Oh that is beautiful. A fine example of the model makers art.Bravo! Edited December 31, 2014 by SimonL 1
Rich G Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 Superb build, not a detail missed, it looks like you shrunk the real thing down to 1/72! Rich 1
wallyinoz Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 oh my gosh.... I want one... gorgeous well done 1
gengriz Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 That is really stunning, and the attention to detail is truly fantastic. 1
