Alain Gadbois Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Hi, Here’s the only photo I took in Ottawa a while ago. Shows good detail of the spinner. Alain airscale and Derek B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck540z3 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) You are a modeling (manufacturing) machine Peter! Great subject. If it is of any assistance, we have Hawker Sea Fury here in a Calgary military museum that I could take reference pics of. It used to sit outside for years which made me cry, but it has since been cleaned up and brought inside for at least 10 years. While it's roped off and I can't climb all over it and take pics of the cockpit, I can certainly take pics of just about anything on the outside. According to what little I can glean from the 'net, its FB11, WG565 if that makes any sense to you. Just send me a PM if you're interested. Cheers, Chuck Edited March 27 by chuck540z3 Alain Gadbois and airscale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airscale Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 Thank you folks - very kind I went to make a basic cockpit tub from 3D and once printed I needed to make some adjustments... while I was at it, I got a bit carried away.. still lots to do, but a great canvas, even if it is cheating a bit TTFN Peter Fanes, williamj, Sepp and 26 others 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 THAT….is NOT cheating Peter, it’s bloody marvellous. If I had your knowledge and ability with 3D drawing and printing it would open up so many options. And let’s face it, it’s definitely the future for our hobby. Derek B, zaxos345, geedubelyer and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geedubelyer Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I agree with Max. I don't see it as cheating at all. This is a supplemental skill. Afterall, you designed this entirely. You chose the settings that allowed you to print your design. It's your photo etch that adorns your printed cockpit tub and probably none of us consider photo etch cheating. Like Max, if I enjoyed half your talent I'd be designing and printing whole aircraft in 3D. I sincerely hope you find a way to overcome your reticence and embrace this new technology then go on to create ever more detailed and wonderful models. Very keen to see how it looks when painted. airscale, Shoggz and Derek B 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Wouldn't say that's cheating Peter, immaculate work and you have definitely mastered 3D printing by the looks of it! Regards. Andy airscale, Shoggz and zaxos345 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that you have really got the bit between your teeth on this one and you have undoubtedly nailed the 3D printing stuff - awesome work!

LSP_Kevin Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 If it was cheating, I'd be doing it myself! Awesome work, Peter. Kev geedubelyer, Derek B and airscale 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 It's not cheating if it's using all of the tools available to you Matt geedubelyer and airscale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis7423 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 It might be obvious to say this, but I think you're really getting the hang of this 3D printing stuff. Just saying.

JayW Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Yup - it's cheating. MikeMaben, Alain Gadbois, Derek B and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
