Shelliecool Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Ready for inspection is my Airfix 1:72 Handley Page Victor. This is a straight from the box build, using Vallejo acrylics in place of the suggested Humbrol. The kit is fantastic to build, fits together smoothly, and has a lovely amount of detailing. This has to be one of my favourite builds. Thanks for looking. 39 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev67 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Lovely build, I heard that there was some issues with fit in certain places because of the small tolerances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dstream Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 This is a gorgeous build! The aeroplane is one of the most interesting and coolest ever and your build does justice to it. kind regards, Daniele 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey-1980 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Glorious! One of the most iconic and stunning aircraft ever built. love it! I'd love to start my Victor and Vulcan soon, but with a nipper on the way and who will be commandeering the the spare room / workbench room I know exactly what my other half will say..... "Where are you going to put it????!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I can only hope my own build of that kit comes out even half that nice. You do awesome work! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomprobert Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 That is a lovely job - I like the very subtle panel lines which avoids the blank, lifeless look - this was no doubt tricky on an all-white aircraft but you've pulled it off well. There's no easier way to ruin the finish of a model than to plaster it in a wash and make every panel line jump out and hit you in the face. Impressive stuff!

binbrook87 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Very nice indeed. A white Victor.... what's not to like? I love it that you've left it in a nice clean finish. Absolutely cracking 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinChipmunkfan Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Yes you have made a great job of this kit, very realistic, well done. The Victor fuselage looks very 50's science fiction to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
