So... I made a very small Vulcan B1

It's a cast of a small vulcan pin badge made with some reusable moulding stuff I have. I was just playing around with it trying to figure out how best to use it and this is my test subject, I'm going to mould another tonight hopefully I'll get a better cast. I used too much material on this one and well, it ended up a little chunky. 

The wingspan is about 2.6 cm so I think that's about 1/1100 scale. Crazy small.

^^ and that's after cleaning up most of the excess material

 

Here's the remains of my previous attempts at this, different moulds (the one I painted up came out of my third mould).

I am a little disappointed Adam, you did not show the cockpit detail....😀

 

Nice tine triangle by the way👍

 

Don't tempt me! 

It was hard enough to get this to cast decently. 

 

Thanks anyway 😂

Is this the lovechild of two of your other vulcs?

Looks good

Two others? I have four and a half others 😂

Perhaps.... Maybe this is how little vulcans were made....

Maybe, but they all grow up to be beauties!

Indeed, the moment someone releases a plastic Vulcan b1 kit in any scale (I would hope bigger than these!) I'm getting too many! We can say those are the all grown up versions 😂

Be careful, I started with two 747s and now I have six! And wanting more!

Looking at my three Victors and the fact that I still don't have a K2, SR2, Bk1a, K1, B1a, silver painted B1 or prototype
