Thud4444 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Seriously! I've been working on a 3d model for printing of this very plane. Guess I'll start on the 545 now. Still excited though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Lovely, already on order, it is too good to miss but if I am to be a little greedy it would be marvellous if they did all the paper designs from that era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general melchett Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 This is another must-have from FP...wonderful subject. Looking forward to receiving one, a nice idea adding the belly tank as an option. Hopefully, the other F.155 proposals, Fairey Delta III, AW.169 and Saunders-Roe P.187 will follow in time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homebee Posted April 7, 2019 Author Share Posted April 7, 2019 Upgrade Quote Here are some shots of our 1:72 Vickers-Armstrong Type 559 interceptor, still in progress. I have asked the pattern-maker to add the large "ventral blister" seen in several iterations of this plane. Any other suggestions?

Geoff_B Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 That's from April 2018, the ventral blister was included in the kit when it was released as can be seen in the earlier post from December Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
