Excellent color pics. 570.........Tough choice as to which I like better! I'll just like 'em both and be Happy 'bout it. Good on you Sir!

Positively AWESOME as usual Ron.

Jim.

Brilliant work Ron, the idea, the composure of the dio, the modelling that has gone into it & the details like the wire & cables poking out of the fuselage all add up to a great build. Definately one to be proud of.

Rick, Jim and Graeme.
Thanks for your great posts. I'm well happy you approve of the model.

Cheers Gents.

Andrew. Good guess. It's 13"x7", and thanks for the nice comments.

Ron, no problem at all, the comments are well deserved!

As for my 'guess'. I was genuinely curious as to how big it was and so was sad enough to get a 12" ruler out and put my hand against it to get an idea of the size.....

Chris, same with my Mrs, showed her one with the trees in it!

And mine!

Andrew, Neil and Lloyd.
Thanks for the most excellent posts, chaps.

Neil. Now I've nearly had three ladies going. Not bad for an old fart, eh?

Andrew, what you do in your private life is your business and shouldn't really be posted world wide!


Thanks Lloyd. I look forward to seeing your builds too.

Cheers.

Ron, it seems something similar happened in 1937... LINK.
Again, a wow and a WOW.

Andrea.
Thanks for taking the time to post the link. Very interesting.

...and thanks for the double wow!

There are three types of people on here: there are kit assemblers (me included) who just try to make a decent job of gluing the bits together and colouring them. Then there are modellers, who make models that don't just depend on the moulded bits. Finally there are artists...

Pete, I couldn't agree more.

This forum is brim full of artists. Whatever 'Label' is used......
