Homebee Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Aviation Art ZM Facebook shows since a few days a Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer artwork.

My guess: Valom..update And the winner is Valom To be followed V.P. Edited March 25, 2020 by Homebee 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VMA131Marine Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I knew there was a reason I sold the Hallam Vac Twin Pioneer I had. I could definitely be tempted by one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisov Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 And for those near Edinburgh a real one at East Fortune to compare with. Enjoy. Hope the 1/72 does well then roll on the 1/48? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yes, yes, yes! Now I can sell my vacform kit. I LOVE the Twin Pin- it reminds be of a British downsized C-125 Raider. A Flamingo and Twin Pin in the same year? Life is good! Mike 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Puff Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 OH. MY. GOODNESS!!! Me want! There are several nice Aussie schemes for that ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Definitely approve! And I'd approve a single Pioneer as well. I'm pretty accommodating that way... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albeback52 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 And it even has enough rivets to keep the most fastidious rivet counter happy!. Think I will have a couple of these!! Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightersweep Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I want one of these! Not built a Valom kit before. How are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britman Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I can vouch for the Valom Saro Cloud. Very nice , but won't build itself. Keith. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's certainly one of them. The others were VH-BHJ, -EVA and -EVB. The first two were new buys, the others ex-Royal Malaysian Air Force. Geoff Goodall's site (http://www.goodall.com.au/) has pictures of all of them. Drawing that scheme for -AIS is going to be a challenge (which I will take up this afternoon, after the base drawings have been done!). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truro Model Builder Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 20 hours ago, fightersweep said: I want one of these! Not built a Valom kit before. How are they? Variable, but if you don't expect everything to be shake'n bake, you won't be too disappointed. Like others, however, they seem to be getting better all the time. Their Ouragan is nice, and I understand their DH Albatross is a belter. The Twin Pin certainly catches my eye, and will probably be heading towards my stash -perhaps even my workbench. Just don't ask CedB about the Airacuda he bought off me at Yeovilton a year or two back. I believe he still has to resort to valium every now and then when the memories become too strong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
