It's looking very hefty - make sure you get some even-extra-stronger tying up stuff to keep this one in the sky. We don't want the ceiling coming down now do we? Thanks hendie - She is a 'sturdy bird' 4 hours ago, AdrianMF said: Looking good! Your aerial on the floor is a perfect demonstration of the problem of unwanted returns when looking downwards... Regards, Adrian Thanks Adrian 2 hours ago, Harley John said: That is looking absolutely fantastic Ced. Bravo Sir, bravo. Thanks John, very kind of you to say so 2 hours ago, dogsbody said: Some visuals: [snip pics] Thanks Chris - good to see the real thing had slightly wobbly aerials too! I still think the PE is too thick but hey ho, it's all done now: Once the glue's fully dry and my hands have stopped shaking I'll go around again and straighten up if needed, but here she will sit until after the festivities: BTW, the girls both bought me home a tube of orange Smarties (my favourites) and look at the cap: That might come in. Vortex generators for example? Have a great Christmas everyone! 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Bird Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Very nicely done, old chap. Happy Christmas, and since you'll see that Kris Kringle guy before I will (you do sit up with the cookies and Doom Bar all night, right?) tell him I want a new tool Javelin FAW.9. In elfin scale, or what we call 1:72. Cheers, Bill 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Johnny Well, as @perdu requested she's now in formation with her modern 'equivalent': A nightmare hanging her without knocking the aerials. She's heavy too and holding her up while trying to thread invisible thread was a trial. Showing off her bottom nicely though: Fnaar fnaar! Next one?
