    It's only a bit of rigging.

      It might be a little easier than the 1/72 version I did

        This is the one I used as part of my 'Stop That Pigeon' build. It was fine for my purposes and went together with no problems, but methinks it's going to take some serious work to bring it up to your usual standard Ian.

        Still, you managed to do an excellent job of that Airfix piece of c**p they call HMS Victory, so I can look forward to seeing what you end up with.

          Good luck young sir, by the sound of it you may need it.

            Made a start on this one, not much done. Just cleaned up the flash and filled the sink holes.
            Going to take a look at some pictures of the interior to add some detail.

              Today I've been working on the cockpit detail. Quite happy with what I've done.

              Also I'm not happy with the figure, so I think I'll swap him for a 1/48 ME 109 pilot. I think it will work.

                i think a 1/48 roman gladiator would look better than the one in the box! :smiling6::smiling6::smiling6: ye gods, its hideous!

                    Ian.
                    I think having a crack at this is exciting. Anyone who can do rigging has my respect , I shall follow along .

                          It looks like Klaatu, the robot from The Day the Earth Stood Still!

                              Thanks Joe.
                              I'm not going to paint this the normal colours, I have an idea in my head for this one.

                                I agree, "Morph's" replacement pilot, though wrong era and nationality is far more preferable!:thumb2::tongue-out3:
