Iain Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 For bonding I've been using EMA Plastic Weld solvent - but MEK works well also. I'm sure other modelling glues will work just as well - but suggest these are tested before relying on them. Iain ctayfor and RNoAF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Thanks Iain, thats a really useful reference! I am seriously thinking about doing that after the Phantom but might need a quick easy Tamiya Mustang before that. Its a stripped out ex RNZAF Civvie one for the previous owners family who have asked me to build them it....well they are going to help fabric my Auster as well. it's the least I could do. I cant get out of my head your P-8 and am thinking of looking into the world of 3D printing as I would really like to do one and a Herk, oh and possibly a Bristol Freighter and HP Hastings...and and LOL Thanks for the link buddy Anthony Derek B, KiwiZac and ctayfor 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted October 9, 2022 Author Share Posted October 9, 2022 OK - so it appears an 'enthusiasm injection' is booked in... Ladislav Hančar of LACI has been busy working in the background on a set of Andover engines - I suspect with input/encouragement from our very own Anthony Galbraith (Anthony in NZ). These images popped up on Facebook the other day - and I'm ordering a set!! More news when there's more news...

LSP_Kevin Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Looks a decent set, Iain! I tried to order some Laci stuff a while back, but had to back out when I saw the shipping cost. Kev Derek B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony in NZ Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 LOL I am sorry Iain! I couldnt help myself persuading Ladislav to do them, he already had a Dart from a Viscount and some 1/144 Andover bits...so why not 1/32 Iain, ctayfor and Derek B 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 Only concern is that these are, presumably, directly scaled up from the 1:144 versions - which are for the Mark 1 Models HS-748/Andover CC Mk.2? Need to check if the cowlings are identical to the HS-780 Andover - with the more powerful engines and the nacelle position further out? And they may/will take some fettling to fit the One Man Model 1:32 wings. But I am getting a set - and they'll be a brilliant step forward - and I'm feeling motivated on this one again. You keep costing me money Anthony - but all in an excellent cause! Iain Starfighter, Derek B, IainM and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted October 15, 2022 Author Share Posted October 15, 2022 I spy 4 sets ready to go - looks like Ladislav has done us proud: Should have mine mid-week - digging out the rest of the model now - these engines are going to make a huge difference!

Jim Barry Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Wow, That's beautiful stuff! I've just recently stumbled on One Man Models and hope to one day add the 1/32 P-3 to my stash. Right now the holding pattern is FULL. Edited October 15, 2022 by Jim Barry Additional info Anthony in NZ and Iain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now the holding pattern is FULL. Recommended Jim! Approach with the right attitude - they are a basic canvas - and a step ahead of scratchbuilding/vacuum formed kits - they *will* take quite a bit of work to bring out their best. But you'll end up with something very, very, special. And I don't think we can expect another 1:32 P-3 any time soon! Iain Jim Barry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
