Masterful Gordon. You capture the essences of the Meteor.

Thank You Lou,

I saw this colour scheme some time ago and thought it would look good.

Cheers

I have another Vampire that I cut out some time ago.

Also reviewing my drawings for the CAC Sabre .

Both are 1/48.

So I've reviewed the Sabre drawings and will probably start one later in the year.

When I cut out the Original Vampire I made a canopy mould for plunge moulding .

Having gained permission to use the imperial hair dryer I attempted some experiments .

I have two canopies that I am satisfied with .

Sooo a 1/48 Vampire is next of the board.

Cheers

Tell me more about the imperial hair dryer. Does it run hotter than other dryers and what kind of plastic do you use?

Lou

Boomerang


The Imperial Blow dryer has the same ranking as the Imperial sowing box.

Both need permission to use.

I used some recycled clear packaging . I used the thinner of what I had . Seemed to work.

Keeping it all alive.

Have something relatively quick and easy in mind.

Quick and easy is always good.

The attachment is not a quick nor easy build but definitely Australian.

The BE is a bit tricky but not written off. However the Martinsyde has been on the list for a while.

The Miles M2 was impressed into the RAAF from the civil register and used by Communications Flights.
