modelling minion Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Well Nigel she has been worth the wait as she really is looking very good indeed. I hope the last few bits and bobs don't take too long, we all know how real life has a habit of getting in the way of modelling, I look forward to seeing her in the gallery soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, Craig The last few weeks have been a struggle with finding time but I'm pleased to report that she is now complete with photos uploaded to Flickr. However, Flickr is currently off-line for maintenance so I'll have to put her in the gallery tomorrow. I might also try a couple of pictures in the sunshine before I do!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took the photos and can only see them on the screen of my phone! Waiting to see what they look like on a bigger screen once Flickr is back up. Have a busy weekend ahead so I may have to wait until Monday (if they get their act sorted) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wimbledon99 Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Any clues how to work the new Flickr? I've uploaded my pictures but there's nothing in 'Camera Roll' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wimbledon99 Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 OK - So I managed to get some photos on Flickr. Before I call this build complete, I have to praise Craig for being such a wonderful host. He's invested time into every entry and has offered help and support where required. Personally, a few weeks ago I didn't know the difference between a Sea Knight and a Chinook so I consider myself educated via this GB. Top job and many thanks!!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Wow, that looks exceptional. Very nice work with the folded rotors. The canopy masking is also excellent, I hope I can get mine looking half as good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much appreciated I used an Eduard mask for the canopy; I find they are generally pretty good as long as they are pulled at an angle when removing. I'm sure yours will look just fine!
