Devilfish Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 That is excellent for 7. At 7, my efforts were a mass of glue..... I did the Skyservant around that time and I remember the wing and engine pod tabs aren't that big, so fixing them wasn't that easy, so this makes me even more impressed!! Well done young man. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_gn Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 The boy got third prize at Cosford today - he's over the moon. Got a trophy, certificate and I believe Airfix donated three prizes for the under 16 y/o class. He got the 1:72 Fouga Magister, which looks great for a future build. Also got a Matchbox Zero (only £4) for his next attempt:He loved the show, althouch I am a bit concerned about his apparent fascination with AFV's. Anyway, we had a great day (plus we got to meet Perdu!). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bod Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Fantastic. I must have seen it there without realising it was your lad's, please tell him well done. By coincidence, I bought the same kit for old time's sake from the show, £8.00 from the little guy by the WW1 planes. Tell your nipper I'll try to make it as good as his.

dr_gn Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 waahhouu... 7 years... Some models again and he will be a serious competitor for futurs model shows Bravo Lionel Thanks - he's raring to go with his Matchbox Zero, and the Airfix Magister. I've told him to give it a rest before starting another kit; no idea why I suggested it because I wouldn't have waited at his age...I'm turning into my dad.

Strangeways Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Congrats to your son on the excellent model, and the win, and kudos to you for spending the time with him. If he's anything like me, he'll remember that time spent building with his Dad, fifty years from now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done on the award too! keith Ta very much - I'll tell him. Must admit, on Sunday at Cosford - in fact at any model show I've been to - there weren't that many youngsters. The others I attend (Huddersfield and Telford), there are virtually no kids there at all. Cosford is of course a museum, so the kids there might have been visiting mainly partly for that.
