It is my attempt at a trompe - black cutout, spot of red or green then light grey in the corners. Totally agree that one doesn’t want to start sawing away at the wingtips of completed models! I’m bracing myself for the orange triangles... Regards, Adrian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnticlockwisePropeller Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Cracking job, Heather! And nice save on the decal too! Don't your Belgian planes look smart sat next to each other! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2996 Victor Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Hi Heather, I've just found your Belgian build thread, and thoroughly enjoyed reading through it. The Renard R31 is particularly nice, and I can see one coming my way in the not-too-distant future! It reminds me in many ways of the Westland Wizard, with the central pylon for the parasol wing. There are a few AeM builds that I'd like to have a go at, although I don't think I'll be tackling a Battle any time soon..... I've found the Belgian Wings website, which is quite interesting, but one of the other thread contributors mentioned photographs of Belgian Hurricanes, however, there doesn't seem to be any link on Belgian Wings any more. In fact, the vast majority of the 1919-1940 aircraft types are un-linked. Do you have any further AeM builds planned? Kind regards, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am mulling a Fiat CR.42, and I have a resin kit of a Fairey Fox "Kangourou". The BW site was moved to a new host late last year. Like all hobby things, it’s taking a while for the content to be reuploaded. Daniel is doing his best, I think, so I will remain patient. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gladiator section is excellent, so patience will be a virtue! I'll be keeping an eye out for the CR42 and Fairey Fox.

Heather Kay Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I haven’t chased him, main,y because I’ve plenty of other interesting kits to get through. The remaining Belgian models can wait for their time on the bench. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I've been following Daniels progress with his site on Faceache, he is getting though the different aircraft quite well. I was please he had the Harvard pages done for my Heller Harvard build. @Heather Kay, I've just found this page after it's revisitation, no idea why I missed it first time, I'll blame Covid, there, done & dusted. I like your Belgian subjects, I'm keen to do some as well. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I'd found Heather's page sooner, and I can only agree with you - Heather's Belgian subjects are quite excellent, aren't they? As with all her models, I must add.

Can't say I blame you - I've been thinking the same for a while, but I still find it quite useful for things like Daniel's page (assuming I'm accepted!) and the Spitfire AA810 restoration.

Steben Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I feel a bit saddened I did not notice this thread earlier. 1940 Belgian air force Gorgeous family picture! Well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
