How I scratch built a studio scale replica of THUNDERBIRD 5

[@paulbennett4548]

I have just found your channel some times the algorithms gets it right. An absolute brilliant build Thunderbirds is still a favorite of mine. Thanks for vido.

[@luketimms1622]

Very impressive. I'm in the middle of replicating one of the Thunderbirds guest vehicles, the Telsat IV that was launched prominently in the episode Ricochet but scaled up from its original size

This model is a triumph. I doubt there is a better TB5 model anywhere in the world. The attention to detail is outstanding. If Gerry Anderson or Derek Meddings could have seen your collection, I’m sure they would have been absolutely amazed.

This Thunderbird 5 is absolutely outstanding. I love all of your work, but this is the best, most accurate looking model of TB5 I've ever seen. Not only that, but your video is possibly the best reference material for the craft I've come across to date. So, as a long time subscriber, I want to say keep up the amazing work, and Happy New Year!

[@Thunderbirds-models]

Thank you, happy new year 🍻

Superb ! How many days/weeks to built it ?

[@Thunderbirds-models]

Thank you, it took about 6 months of evenings and weekends

[@jeanvilleneuve8663]

@@Thunderbirds-models WOW ! we can tell by the result and details.

[@jamieblair6511]

Absolutely first class tb5..definitely my least favourite Thunderbird but without it international rescue would have never been able to save anyone,anywhere at anytime.

[@Thunderbirds-models]

Cheers, exactly my sentiment too 👍
