Thanks, that's valuable praise coming from the local master of vacforms and restaurations.vacant wrote:First rate results on both kits. You have certainly gone to a lot of effort to get them looking do good. Why bother to choose between colour schemes when one can do both, as you have done? I assume this is a 1/48 scale kit as I can't see any references to an Aeroclub Meteor in 1/72 - perhaps you mentioned it somewhere. I bet it looks even more impressive 'live'.
These are indeed 1/48 scale models, and yes, between them they are quite the presence on the display shelf. It will get even better when I park the Tamiya I've almost finished alongside them.
Heavy brutes too, with all that resin and metal inside them (and even the Tammy has a huge block of ballast to avoid a tailsitter), so quite the surprise when you pick them up.
