Nimrod 1/72 Airfix

[lambretta]

Hello evrybody, I would like to take part at the Falklands campaign, but I didn't decide yet which airplane I will do..


I'm beginning this campaign contemporary on the italian web site Modellismo alla Buona for the 30 years of the Falklands War.
I let you see how I paint the cabin.. I hope you enjoy it!

!
I add just a trumpet!

The internals of the airfix kit seems poor to me, so I think about this nice way to do it better! Just for joke!
The second room, infact, it's about Sherlok Holmes style!
ciao see you soon

You are quite, quite mad.

Regards,
Bruce

Welcome aboard,home from home eh!

[JamesPerrin]

when the British go to war they like to take some home comforts.... like the home.

looking at the equipment fitted in this Nimrod you can see why they were phased out of service.

I will enjoy watching this build.

I was afraid you did not realize my humor.
I'm glad you liked...
thanks.


It's easy to fit even its size. Infact, I put a clip on the wings.

to close the fuselage using trichlorethylene,end after correspondence with 220 paper and then move to finer
(no putty)

only problem....cumbersome!

Oh, yes we got the joke alright!

Be careful with that trichlorethylene, the fumes are nasty, and you should really only handle it in a well ventilated area, preferably with a mask. Technically, you are not supposed to put it down the sink - it can do very nasty things if your plumbing pipes are plastic

Where are the crew, Sherlock, Mycroft and Watson?

cheers

I live in Rome and, sometimes, is better the trichlorethylene than the dumping gas of the cars!!!
Sherlok Holmes and Watson are gone to the supermarket to buy the tea beacause it's finished!

[Dazzled]

Trichloroethane is pretty dangerous stuff. I had trichloroethane poisoning some years ago and was very, very ill through it so please take great care using it. In the UK it's now banned in industrial use because of the dangers associated with it.

On a brighter note, great model, hilarious interior detail.

More tea vicar?

[ShaunW]

Great build Lambretta and fun too, the Sherlock Holmes room is the maddest thing I think I've seen anyone put into a model aircraft

[lambretta]

Trichloroethane is dangerous I know it and now I know it better. I will not use it anymore! ... Because I drunk it!

[MerlinJones]

Probably less dangerous than Italian wine!

[kruaxi]

Probably less dangerous than Italian wine!

Not more than British cider, believe me...

Oh, well, i drink beer only... hate wine, cider, spirits...

That victorian room is the maddest thing i ever seen...
