IanC Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Good stuff. I love the slightly faded look, as if it's done quite a few GR patrols. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 That's a superb looking Wimpy. The paint finish is excellent and I particularly like how you've 'faded' the fabric over the geodesic structure on the wings. It really gives the look of an aircraft exposed to the elements while operating over the North Atlantic. On the strength of this I think my kit has just gone up a couple of notches in the stash. I really hope this model is a success for Airfix, they really deserve it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to Indian plastic was a saving grace. And some of their financial woes have been slightly eased. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All right, I've scratched the brain cell & stirred up nothing, I'll maybe blame night shifts, but I'm hanged if I know what TMM is/are? They look darn good though, thats a nice Wimpey indeed.

stevehnz Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Right, I knew that, really. I'm blaming nights & the fact we don't really get Testors in New Zealand these days so low on my horizon. Thanks for the nudge. Steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
