falcon Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) Some photos of the finished Vulcan. And the What If set. Enjoy. Edited May 24, 2020 by falcon 36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goggsy Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I don’t know if it’s just my screen but the photos appear to be horribly pixelated? Looks like a nice job aside from that but it actually appears like Lego on my screen? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I agree with @goggsy. I'm sure it is a very nice model but the pictures look like a mosaic floor. If you click on the picture you are taken to an upload page. I think you probably need to put in a direct link to you picture on your hosting site?

Mark4700 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Looks good from what I can see, but echoing what’s been said above, in that the photos are badly pixelated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcon Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 Sorry guys. Images are set to standard forum setting so do tend to look that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A much better set of photos has now replaced the original set. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 That's much better Chris thanks - and you've made a pretty good of the old Airfix kit. I've owned a few over the years but never did build one of these - always looked to be a lot of work to get a decent result so well done.

TallBlondJohn Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Best Vulcan I've seen on BM. Guess we don't need the new tool then? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Great build. Just as I remember them back in 1969 at RAF Scampton during my ATC camp. XL446 appears on my log as being at Scampton at the time. Nice work . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booty003 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Bl**dy Hell Chris, you have smashed it out of the park with this one....!!! I think most of us know what a challenge this big old beast is and you have delivered a real show stopper. Staggeringly good mate, that must of took a huge amount of effort but it has certainly paid off. Brilliant. Phil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruskin Air Services Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 That is one excellent vulcan, can't believe that's the old Airfix kit. Well done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 That is a lovely Vulcan, even the wife agrees. Regards Robert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Fantastic work. I’ve got one on the go at the moment, can’t say I’m enjoying it! It will be XM603 in that scheme when it was delivered to Woodford. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 That's just incredible and awesome work on this old kit. Just goes to show that a bit (or a lot) or modelling skill can still create masterpieces from this old tool. Cheers and very well modelled..

Learstang Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Brilliant work on the Vulcan! If I could get this result from my old-mould kit, I wouldn't sell it when the new one comes out (I can't get that result and I will sell it, respectively).

Lord Riot Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Awesome Vulcan, what a gorgeous build. Love this glossy camo scheme too, looks fabulous. Nice to see XL446; my white one is 443 - I bet between us all on BM we've probably got every Vulcan airframe! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adey m Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Beautiful Vulcan in my favourite scheme, I do miss seeing ( and hearing ) those come over here and seeing them dispersed at Scampton and Waddington. My favourite Vulcan build definately. regards, adey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
