robvulcan Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Well this was one of those "Quick Builds" That got fit into gaps between other projects and life events and 3 years later finally emerges as finished.. I love how shes come out Its my attempt at XL426 as she was in the VDF days battered and faded to hell just before handing over to the more famous VDF bird XH558. Hope you enjoy its my first post in RFI for ages now. Rob 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody37 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Hey rob, great to see you've found some time to get something finished, great finish. Must build a Vulcan sometime, but think a new Airfix victor will beat it off the bench! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robvulcan Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 I was wondering where you were, Mr R Vulcan. Another gem, well done. Thanks mate. Been very busy making some major life changes and writing and recording the new Sister Shotgun EP She's a stunner! Cheers Val Brilliant job,she looks great..... Thanks mate What's not to like about a Vulcan? Very nice indeed Rob and well done, she looks great!! Kev The only thing not to like about the vulcan is that none are flying , Glad we can make models of them though, cheers Hey rob, great to see you've found some time to get something finished, great finish. Must build a Vulcan sometime, but think a new Airfix victor will beat it off the bench! yes took me a whole year to put the probe on lol. I will likely give it another coat of varnish at some stage but its done, Time to get more done and yes cant wait for the Airfix Victor I have 2 pre ordered. Cracking camo job! it's a big of a bug bear of mine vulcan camo pattern ratios and you've nailed it.That's why you're the Vulcan guru , good to have you back Rob. Thanks mate I just do my best to follow from photos whats going on as each was unique. I tend to paint green before grey too as masking off what I want to keep is easier on my brain inverted. Whenever I try to do it the conventional way it never comes out looking right and the grey always ends up being too much. At this scale its hard to see the difference. Works for me at least and i was funny about trying it out. Just recently I wanted to try it the other way though. Cheers mate Looks brilliant Rob Cheers Mate. I have not forgot about posting all the ones I have made but that might be a long while off and I think I will finish a few more before I do.
