I am captivated by the look of the Sycamore. To me it has such a biomechanical insect look to it that I can't seem to look away! Well done! Thank you,... yes I know exactly what you mean,..... I think it was definitely inspired by nature with that design. On 9/20/2021 at 6:10 AM, SteveMc said: A very nice finish on your Sycamore Tony. That dayglo would have been hard to miss. I lived in Londonderry in 1958-59 but was too young to remember it. My Dad was in the RN at RNAS Eglington. I many trips to Belfast during the 1980's to visit my late grandparents. They were strange times. People just lived with the threat of terrorism, bombings and murders. BTW there is a Sycamore in the Aussie FAA museum at Nowra, NSW, a couple of hours from where I live. I took these a few months ago when the museum was open in between covid lockdowns Thanks Steve,..... I can well imagine mate,.... the 80`s and 90`s were bad enough! Thanks for the pics too,.... I have a second kit which I`m probably going to do in that very scheme,.... I already have a 1/72nd one in that scheme on a very old kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
