Rainer Hoffmann Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 When this one is finished in 2019, would you perhaps consider a jet as your next project? There are a lot of NMF jets around, as you probably don't know Ok, just asking...

Breaker Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Instead of right-click and saving, have a folder open on your desktop and just drag and drop - It's quicker and less RSI inducing! Alburymodeler, daHeld and airscale 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cees Broere Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Peter, Thanks to your magnifcentness and seeminly straightforward creativity I got my mojo back to have another go at scratchbuilding a HP 0/400.

tomprobert Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) And there was me thinking you were going to do a 1/32nd HP Hastings next... Still, I'm sure I, along with thousands of your loyal fans, will be able to get by watching this latest masterclass emerge from your highly skilled hands. Joking aside, a great choice for your next project, Peter! Will hopefully catch up properly at Telford.

BlackCanopy Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) Dear Peter A Firefly?!? I was hoping for something with more compound curvature (perhaps a bare metal Westland Wyvern or similar) as a challenge for your metal plating technique! Well, you can certainly recompense us, by fitting the Firefly with a fully detailed engine! (>> Showtime for three years instead of two). ;o) Thanks in advance!

KiwiZac Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I've commented on Britmodeller about my excitement to follow this project, but Well, you can certainly recompense us, by fitting the Firefly with a fully detailed engine! ^^ I am fully behind this. If I don't see removable cowls over the Griffon I will be mildly displeased! BlackCanopy and airscale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airscale Posted October 7, 2017 Author Share Posted October 7, 2017 Hi folks Delighted you made the right choice, have the Panther Models 1/32 kit so will be following closely, hope Paul Fisher does too!!! I have been speaking to Paul about it and hope to help the process along where I can A Firefly in 1/32 would be a most welcome addition methinks Check your emails Peter VX.388 will be along shortly. Hi Steve - abolutely knockout - what you sent me (233 close up pics of VX388, just a few airframes up from this one) are utterly out of this world - a million thanks Wow. Get the Popcorn! But whatever became of the F7F? david Hi David - the F7F is in the holding pattern for now, I learned a lot making it and it needs about 6 months work to finish it so I need to feel the time is right to go back Peter, Thanks to your magnifcentness and seeminly straightforward creativity I got my mojo back to have another go at scratchbuilding a HP 0/400. Thanks Cees Hi Cees - that sounds as if I have achieved a goal then - I love it if my threads help people learn new things, try them or even go back to something they started like your 0/400 Dear Peter A Firefly?!? I was hoping for something with more compound curvature (perhaps a bare metal Westland Wyvern or similar) as a challenge for your metal plating technique! Well, you can certainly recompense us, by fitting the Firefly with a fully detailed engine! (>> Showtime for three years instead of two). ;o) Thanks in advance! Joerg Hi Joerg - well a Firefly is pretty curvy so I think will be quite challenging. I did consider a Wyvern as HpH do a 1/18 kit but the kit is of the later tall tail version & the one in Southampton (I think) I would get reference pics from is an early TF1 so a very different airframe so I dropped the idea as for the engine - while I like the idea - that is another 6 months on the build, so I am learning to control my urges as far as opening everything up goes, and won't be doing that. This one has both the pilots & observers position full of clutter so will be months and months of detail anyway speaking of which - I am still making PE - its nearly finished now & I have made virtually every component that can be seen inside and most of the panels & hatches outside - this is the interior fret before full layout where everything is attatched to each other... I hope to get these made up next week along with the second fret with all the airframe parts & actually the plan is hopefully some of this can be repurposed for the Fisher kit, though I know Paul plans a number of variants & this is basically everything in a TT Mk5 ..also next week I want to get started on the fuselage, so hope to see things start to take shape then TTFN Peter sandokan, Starfighter, Anthony in NZ and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
