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 :confused:
 
may I take this opportunity to be the first to say wow those are really good, well done I especially like the Whitley as they were built not far from me 8)
 
I have a problem a lot of times when there are pics on one of these posts like this one I get a box with an X on it can someone help me with that?
 
If you get a red 'X' in a box, wipe the cursor across it; it should expand and read 'Undefined'. Leave the cursor on the box, and then press 'Shift' and 'R'. That should open it, but sometimes, depending on image size, it might take a few seconds. I have to do that most of the time, and presume it's because of the 'system' somewhere!
 
These are very good. In particular I admire the turrets, they must be a nightmare with a lot of detail in a very small space.
Well done
 
Great work, Ian! Are they going on display? Is that why he wanted them?
