On the real thing, the position of the hot exhausts would worry any pilot climbing out of the cockpit. Easy goes it! Thank you and you are right, it was something I thought about too. Must have been a secret trick 😅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent K Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Wow, that is just spectacular. I've been lucky to see the two fly in the UK a lot over the years, and this just looks incredibly lifelike! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a large benefit from side of the quality of the kit of course, but this was just a staring point. Congrats J-W Thank you ! Yes I always try to get a kit as close to reality as I can 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great work, loved following the build and will certainly use when I do mine too. Thanks for sharing it. Certainly glad that none of the spilt ink landed on your model, phew. Chris Thank you for your kind words Chris 😃 Glad people liked the little details I shared. If you have questions do not hesitate. Glijn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is next in line for my stash reduction, having built up the Dragon Rapide over the winter. Thanks 😃 I Made a WIP on Britmodeller but the last part was not detailed but you can find many details here: The walkaround photographs in the instruction sheet were taken by me, I shared my walkaround photographs for the development of this kit.

In my ignorance I was a bit surprised - a 1/32 maritime patrol plane - must be a massive kit! Beautiful Hawker Nimrod; great modelling, fabulous detail. I had the same initial thought about what it was. I definitely agree with the "great modeling, fabulous detail" comment. Very very true! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you 😀 I have never seen them fly unfortunately but over the years I always took walk around photographs when I had the opportunity, and al those together were used for the development of the kit by Lukasz of Lukgraph. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
