  1. Love it... hopefully this makes it to a Telford one year... I understand how big it is... but it's just too good.
  2. How I was when I got the YS-11EB... will put a thread up soon for that in Non-LSP too.. need to make the clear parts up then it'll be good for paint.
  3. No kit/model is perfect Iain from the box.. and if there is only one shape wrong with this, and an area that probably won't really be seen by people when on display (given they face nose out at shows), then I think he's also done a superb job. I'd happily take that on any kit he does, if it means getting kits no one else would be willing to produce. A-90 Ekranoplan for example... that I really can't wait for..
  4. A lot better for sure... still pondering whether to order one.
  5. How are you doing the clear areas Iain? Cutting out from plastic and inserting? Making any form of lip for them to sit on at all.. ? Great work btw..
  6. Yeah, I agree... removing the chin turret of the B-17G was fun filling in that large void.
  7. Can also vouch how well it sanded down, my YS-11EB is all but done... I should get a thread up in Non-LSP really. Nice work too, Iain... reminds me of all the work you put into them Uhu nacelles.
  8. I'd be in for a U-2 in 32nd... a Senior Span would look unreal in this scale.
  9. I know this is going off topic but this is what i'll be building in 48th... if he offered it in 32nd I could well be tempted. A P-3 would also be a fire bomber...
  10. I will be getting a 1/48th Electra.... Shame he's not doing a P-3, I saw that comment... I would of thought he would of given how much they have been in use with the JASDF.
  11. Never got one for my 1/48th YS-11EB... box was a decent size too.
  12. Bit more done (covered over the rear turret and rounded off), and i've put coat of primer over the top of all the modified areas to find any defects.. there are a few but thankfully minor, so they will be sorted tonight. Too big to photo anywhere else, so on the rug it is.....
  13. Bummer... i'll keep looking though. I have friends I can ask also..
  14. Are these any good Iain? Not my photos, but takes you direct to the photographer.
  15. Actually quicker to look on Flickr... but looking at this I can't see me having any better.
  16. Iain, i'll check my photos from Cosford... I have taken a few over the years of the one there.
  17. Signing up to this.... #mustnotbuyanothermodel.
  18. Update time... having time off being stuck in the house has it's perks... Fuselage mods almost done now, then it can all start being glued together and details added back where it's been lost, and then fit up the tank i've made also (no pics as It's buried in a box somewhere still...) Also, now going to be Tanker 15 that operated with Butler Aviation Co. as N5237V.
  19. So so so good!! I'm getting a Andover, but 72nd... 32nd SQN was very close to home for many years living not far from Northolt, and as I have all the others mostly, i'll be sticking to 72nd for the Andover... but that does look so nice in 32nd. Damn you Iain.
  20. Jennings, this is a post for this exact type, as it's already been produced in both 72nd and 48th... he will upscale to 32nd if enough people want one. I would of gave it serious thought had I not just bought the 1/48th version. It's a lovely kit for what it is... hope you find enough to get it going. I know for the 748, he only wanted 3 people... Few pics of my 1/48th kit. (1/72nd S-55 for scale)
  21. No interior on the YS-11EB bar a basic cockpit... but i'm happy with that as you'll never see it anyway. Cockpit glass is quite big so it's good to have that though to work off..
  22. I've had this for some time, but it's been at my brothers as he also bought one and they went to his... being locked down, i've not been able to collect it (he lives 150 miles away), so he sent it up with some other stuff for my daughter, it arrived today.... and it's fantastic. 'OneManModels' 3D printed YS-11EB in 1/48th. Next to my recent Yugoslavian S-55 in 1/72nd. Ignore all the gaps etc, the fit is great with little fettling needed when gluing that I can tell... wish I never started the Su-25UB now... @Iain & @Anthony in NZ you will be over the moon with your HS780 Andovers....!
  23. Anyone want to do a Thai markings set for it...
  24. My current project. I will get a thread up son once I have enough content...
