earlswain341 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I'm about to start on my most ambitious project so far. Haven't mastered any parts for 6 years and thought I would have a crack at the RAF Airseeker in 1/72 scale. The masters have been scanned and a 3D print of all the bits and bobs are with Lancashire 3D in Preston.. Should have them back on Wednesday and then taking a silicone mould of them to fettle the fit for the AMT/Italeri stratotanker. I will post pictures as it progresses. Should make one heck of a model. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I have an original tool RC-135V to use for my build. I will be interested to see how your 3D printed parts turn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlswain341 Posted June 12, 2019 Author Share Posted June 12, 2019 Just received the scans and they are spot on. Should be getting the printed examples very soon. Once I have them in my sticky little fingers, I will take a rubber mould off them and then fettle the fit using a resin casting. No point messing up the originals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
