Hi all,
Been hard at work making these models for a gent' who wanted a wellington built as it was in his dads sqd codes, so i gladly said yes, It's from 91 sqd Wellesbourne Mountford OTR, the wellington is the trumpeter 1/48th jobbie, the props are removable so you can take all the engine covers off to show the engine 'off' and made some scratch built spinners
He also asked me if i could make dio's to match, so he asked me if i could make a matchbox wellesley showing engine change out in the fields on a part of a 'specticle'
There was quite a few added extra's on these like CMK resin goodies eg' the ground crew/ engine/prop/PE engine gaurds/scratch built table.
The other dio' is the old frog whitley bomber with aftermarket decals on a 'lollie pop', the frames are just picture frames and the hard standing is 1.5mm card cut into the correct shapes then painted a concrete colour, then stuck down with PVA glue and some 'fake' grass i also used the airfix recovery set in both dio's.
The Trumpeter 1/48th Vickers Wellington
The Matchbox Wellesley diorama.
The Frog Whitworth Whitley diorama.
Thanks for looking guys/gals
