That sir is perfect perfection. Beautiful build. Cant wait to see the finished article and ill be following the Skyraider build too, Iv'e got one so ill be following closely.

Lovely job.. just like to point out that as a result of this my wallet will be taking a sound thrashing getting some of those wonderful masks! Keep up the superb work. Im sure the overspray "issue" can be resolved.

Sea Flanker..........sorry, i wouldnt be able to decide either.

1/32 resin Vulcan!

Have to agree with the positive comments, this is coming along really nicely. Those resin seats really do make a difference in the level of details. A great job. Im interested in how the scheme turns out with the masks as I am looking to build this Aircraft after my next hawk. It does look really great in those markings. Watching with interest.

Pants! and I reserved a Skyraider as well. Must have missed the detail in the excitement. Ah well Ill try direct with ZM and see if they are likely to be separately available.

I must be being completely dim but these guys were arming a Skyraider for flight at Telford 2011 Im after recruiting them for my skyraider Dio but cant see them anywhere on the website... Am I losing it?

Another lovely F4 in a rarely seen scheme. I Like it a lot well done!

Remarkable video. Some lovely nostalgic footage which shows how Trial and error laid the foundations for most eras of flight. Brave folk indeed.

That is a great build thread lovely work. Thanks both for the replies. Iv'e ordered an Aires set for the Tamiya kit. A lot of cutting and stabbing to come methinks.

Im teeing myself up for a build of the Revell F14. My question relates to the cockpit. Basically what aftermarket resin is the best set to use. Aires does two sets, designed for the Tamiya and Trumpeter kits respectively. If anyone has any ideas help will be greatfuly accepted.

ZM skyraider por moi

OOF! that is incredible work. Simply beautiful. Congratulations on some fantastic work you should be justifiably proud!

Having missed the deadline for the F4 Group build over on Britmodeller by over a decade, I finally finished the Michigan F4. As per the build thread, Its a Tamiya F4C with seamless sucker intakes and the wonderful and increasingly rare Cutting edge MANG decals. I will be honest I dreaded the moment I had to start to cut the sheet up for fear of ruining these lovely items. Anyhow, all went well and here is the result. From what i have seen, the MANG F4's were all kept extremely clean hence very little weathering other than picking out a few panel lines and due to a lack of lining decals, the walkway outlines are hand painted! hope you like.

^^ ill second every word of what Chris has written. I really did Umm and ahh over what improvements I was going to invest in and having done quite a bit of research ultimately went for the canopy intakes and nose, and i'm so glad I did. TBH it does mainly come down to budget considerations. Well it did in my case anyhoo.

For what my opinion is worth, The SU 27 is as impressive in kit form as it is in 1:1 scale. I have built the SU 27 with Chris's updates and found it to be a really satisfying experience which produces an outstanding subject. I also have the Trumpeter Mig 29M in the stash and on the face of it it seems an equally nice kit however it does n't blow my skirt up quite as much as the big SU ..

JEEEEZ! one is big enough but two!

Im going to go with This cheery chappy with a little adaptation, for my diorama. Unfortunatly, im contractually bound with SWMBO to build a few of my stash contents before going with the skyraider! Still looking forward to it though.

Hi Brian, It is available and has been produced ( iv'e got one). I have a sneaking suspicion that ZM brought the last of the current batch over to Telford as you could purchase them without reservation, as opposed to the actual Skyraider which had to be reserved. I know this isn't that helpful just to let you know that they are about and its likely a further batch is on its way. Im after a figure set as they are outstanding works of art, but cant find them on the site either.

Hi Roy, and Iain, Rich Myself and the boys had a great time just a shame we couldn't make the Sunday as I appear to have missed shed loads, but I do have a ZM Skyraider so thats ok then. Heres to next year. Just as a matter of interest, how did the F3 fair in the vote? did it get any?

Iv'e also got a D model with Aires cockpit and wheel well kit, SAC undercarriage and Fancy Girls Decals. Im delaying this build until I can free up some more shelf space but am really looking forward to it. The 105 is such a lovely aircraft. Notwithstanding the model, having been fortunate to see one up close, I didnt grasp just how big these were. Incredible.

Really nice build you got there. Dont see many A10's nowadays. Welcome to LSP.

Interesting release given im still waiting for an Intruder, Buccaneer and Jaguar. and typical that I have just used my flightpath set on the old old revell offering!

That build is outstanding. It stands up to scrutiny on every level. Every time I look back at the photos you have taken I find myself discovering another detail I missed the first time round. That sir is incredible!

Stunning simply stunning. The execution of the oil staining and exhaust is fantastic. I am really looking forward to getting my mitts on mine at Telford! I have however been told, I cannot buildit yet as ive got a few more to do ahead of it! Somehow think this is being held by swmbo as a bookmark in my stash!
