Adelaide Model Expo (2008)

[Wayne Little]

Ok this one has an interesting story...it was built and painted on the way to the Adelaide Expo by one or some of the Guys from Melbourne on the trip over.....so it was started some time on the Friday morning and put on the table Saturday afternoon....

 

[Catch22]

Looks good to me! I wonder why they did that.

 

[Airframes]

Brilliant! A little 'clinical' in the finishing department, but, for such a b****y quick build, who cares!!??

 

[Matt308]

"On the way over"... you mean in a vehicle?

 

[109ROAMING]

Cool and made with style!

 

[Heinz]

Give you guys an idea from Melbourne to Adelaide its about 7-8hours by car, maybe a little more.

Nice work for an 'overnight' build!

 

[Gnomey]

Certainly is! Surely better than some guys 1+ month builds.

 

[Wayne Little]

"On the way over"... you mean in a vehicle?

Yep!!

.....and the winner of this class......you ready Catch!!

lovely model

 

[109ROAMING]

Dam thats cool!

 

[Airframes]

Agree, very well done. The weathering and panel line wear look just right, in keeping with a seaborne birdcage.

 

[Matt308]

That's world class right there! And he knows his airplane. Love the petrol/oil streaks just forward of the cockpit. I'm gonna reference that one for my PBY-5A Blackcat. Well done!

 

[Gnomey]

Beautiful, lovely weathering and small details.

 

[Catch22]

Hooray! Very nicely done! The weathering is fantastic! I love that early war paint scheme as well. Thanks Wayne!

 

[Wayne Little]

New you would love it Catch!

Moving on to the Medium Scale Single Engine AXIS Props....

Kicking off with a Finnish Buffalo, this one was in Melbourne but didn't get enough good pics....till now!

 

[Airframes]

Now that is extremely well done!

 

[109ROAMING]

[Gnomey]
