John Masters Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Just catching up on all of these builds Chris. Superb all the way around. That target tug is excellent as is the Flivver. Is that the William's Kit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbadbadge Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 Last distraction build completed will post RFI when I get time to take some photos I present a cute FB.5, just noticed need to do the wingtip lNav lights Also uncovered this the other day so been pottering on this too. Will do alongside all my FAA builds which I have been working on. This is the Maquette HP Dart Herald, needs a lot of fettling but hoping to get the white on in the next week or two. This is the freight version. Thanks for looking Chris 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony in NZ Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Beautifully executed Vampire Chris, one of my all time favorite aircraft. Really looking forward to the release of Infinity Models 1/32 one. Love your finish (again), absolutely beautiful! That Dart Herald looks awesome, cant wait to see how that one comes up with your skills applied to her. Going to be a cracker Keep up the great work buddy Anthony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be a cracker Keep up the great work buddy Anthony Thanks Anthony, a 32nd scale Vampire will be lovely, I saw the images on Google the other day as I was trawling ebay and saw a Tigger models vacform one and wondered what they were like. Got a Heller one to see if I can convert to a Sea Vampire. I can't believe the Herald prices on Ebay too. Glad I got one years ago. I am gradually fettling the herald into shape.

marvinneko Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Wow. Thanks for mentioning the Ventura target tug. This was a spectacular build. Amazing engines! And the yellow and black scheme looks fantastic after that superb weathering job toned it down and tied it together. Nice work inside as well fixing the bulkhead and scratching the radio op station. My Revell Ventura will likely be the usual cammo but I hope to do a TT Fairey Battle in the future and hope I can get a similar quality and tone to yours in the yellow black scheme. Did you have any info on the winch setup at all? That's something I'll need to dig into. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Marvinneko Very kind indeed, a really enjoyable build, you will really enjoy it after all your hard work on the Hurricane. The winch set up was tricky and I didn't find any info on it, however I did find a picture of the window for the TT bird and don't forget the bubble/teardrop window on the port side, for hhe winch operator. I will try and find it and if I still have will send over on a PM, I was asked not to publish the images at the time so couldn't post on here. Thanks very much Chris 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
