Brian Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Beautiful work. When I first looked, I thought it was a real aircraft. One small point though, I doubt that any maintenance hangar would include a bomb on a trolley. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 All the fantastic comments I am recieving from you guys is appreciated very much...so I say thankyou to all of you.........and yes it was a bit stupid of me placing the Bomb on the trolley in the hangar Brian(even though it wasn't fused )...I should have thought! after all I have worked in many a Hangar in my military career!...no excuse!

crookedmouth Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Fozzy - I only just spotted this one. What a beauty - fantastic attention to detail - to say that it's a work of art just sounds bland. What gets me is the patience you must need for something like that. Me - I can't wait to move on to the next kit, so "finished" is something that happens as soon as the paint's dried. To build a model aircraft with all the guts and then move on to a highly detailed must take some stamina and discipline... Do you plan it all out before hand so you've something to aim for or do you just keep going till it looks riight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there Campbell Yes ...I had the bones of what I wanted to do in my head....I wanted to place the P51 in a Hangar because I spent 8 years for Queen and Country !in the AAC and spent 4 of those years as a Aircrewman Observer flying in the Scout AH1 and the rest of the time was spent in many a cold and windy Hangar....so I kind of knew what Hangars were like,(what equipment would be in there etc)...the only difference was that we didn't service P51s but Scout,Lynx and Gazelles!!! So I drew out a plan of what goes where and started to scratch build. However once I started I then couldn't help myself and started adding cups of teas,opened pots of paints...then the only thing I had to do was make everything look like it came out of the forties and not the eighties!!!...I kept looking at it and eventually decided that it was the way I wanted it to look!! Sorry Campbell ......but you did ask!!! Foz Edited January 19, 2011 by Fozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzy Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 Hi chaps I decided that our dear friends from Photobucket were not going to destroy all my threads ......so I have decided to slowly replace all photos on this thread and my other RFI posts with my photos from Postimage....starting with this blast from the past from January 2011....My P51D and Hangar! I do hope you still like the photos second time round!! Cheers Fozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
