Thanks for that, a great job. I built one when I was a kid, which was fondly remembered as I'm originally from Stranraer and they were stationed at the port in 1940 before being replaced by Sunderlands. I wonder if you can do a motorised Gloster Meteor (based on an existing kit). What I mean is... a Gloster Meteor MkI was a testbed for the first turbo-prop engines and the conversion was called the Trent Meteor named after the Rolls-Royce engines installed, just an idea as I've never seen a Trent Meteor model.
@307vrr4 күн бұрын
@@dcanmore Thanks ! 👍 I know the Trent Meteor you speak of...It's a very rare model nowadays. I think it could be motorised yes. It will probably be a heck of a lot easier than this Stranrear 🤣🤣

Excellent build Mike. I like the way you point out those areas that needed cleaning up even though they may not be visible and your attention to detail to those parts that needed extra attention. May I ask how do you dilute enamel paints and what was the pressure setting? I was told that if the airbrush is not near to the model during spraying, the paintwork tends to look powdery. Any advice would be most appreciated. I have liked and subscribed. 👍👍👍👏👏👏
