Melbourne Model Expo (2010)

dunno about this jumping out of a perfectly good aeroplane.....

Airframes · Apr 1, 2011

You'd understand if you saw the way some of them are flown !!!

Wayne Little · Apr 3, 2011

that's a good reason.....

Ok, what mark of Spitty Terry?

Airframes · Apr 3, 2011

Nice. Looks like the MkXIVe which took part in the Edmonton(?) and I think King's Cup air races.

Gnomey · Apr 3, 2011

Certainly is a late series, Griffon Spit, not sure which one though, would go along with Terry though. Nice model!

Airframes · Apr 3, 2011

Oh, it's a MkXIV - just not sure about the air races.

Catch22 · Apr 3, 2011

Hmm, that's cool. I would imagine it took part in the air races here, or at the very least it was from Edmonton.

Wayne Little · Apr 5, 2011

Next one up a rather bright looking P-39

Crimea_River · Apr 5, 2011

Not keen on the paint work but nicely put together otherwise.

Gnomey · Apr 5, 2011

With CR here. Not a fan of the paint job but nicely done otherwise.

vikingBerserker · Apr 5, 2011

I like the color, but the texture is a bit odd.

Airframes · Apr 5, 2011

As said, nicely done model, but a failure on the finish. Looks like the final clear coat has 'orange peeled', as the effect is evident overall, including the decals.

Wayne Little · Apr 6, 2011

didn't like the finish myself....

next up a Ki-84.

Crimea_River · Apr 6, 2011

Also a bit heavy on the gloss but not bad otherwise.

Gnomey · Apr 6, 2011

Good one!

vikingBerserker · Apr 6, 2011

I agree with Andy.

Wayne Little · Apr 9, 2011

Now this japanese subject is the opposite....not enough gloss!

javlin · Apr 9, 2011

Come on now Wayne!It's got some gloss on the cowling but should it have some gloss?My thought is that AC in combat would always be flat unless brand new and even then maybe semi.

Gnomey · Apr 9, 2011

Nice one!

Crimea_River · Apr 9, 2011

Cowling doesn't look glossy to me. There are two white lines than appear like a shine but it's pretty flat. I like the model though.
