spanner's 1/72 Hurricane and Dornier DO-17-A coming together

[spanner570]

What terrific and humorous comments from my good buddies on S.M. Thank you.

....as to how it's going to end, who knows. I certainly don't. It's still a leap into the unknown - But a brill' bit of fun.... :upside:

From Houdini, hottie's sticky out bits, garden shed, time machine and my missus. - All in half a dozen posts! Brilliant stuff... :thumb2:

Allen. Still a bit to do yet, but I'm having a bit of difficulty getting organized ready for the final pictures. My wife is finding it difficult co-ordinating the throwing of both aircraft at the same time, whilst also slinging in some pretend debris! Perhaps a glass or two of Guinness (Her favourite drink. Other stouts are available) will do the trick.

Thanks again, chaps.

Guinness eh! Does she have the red hot poker dipped in it first? A mate of mine remembers his Gran having a Guinness and poker when he was a nipper...

Outstanding work, 570. The attention to detail is awesome, and it's so realistic. Are you planning to tackle a train wreck next?

Hi Ron
Damage looks excellent and banter cheers me up. Your good lady will have to use all her chucking skills to get both planes in the right place at the right time for the photos.

Ron, thats good damage done. With all the scratch artistry you could help your Mrs with a built sling shot and synconise your camera for the perfect shot.
The banter is at par with John's tea party. :thumb2::tears-of-joy:

Cheers,
Richard

Terrific comments chaps. Thank you.

Are you planning to tackle a train wreck next?

There you go, Murfie. 'Partisan Attack!' A good while ago on here. Always room for another.

Holmes states that on his fourth pass at the bomber, the port engine caught fire and covered his windscreen in oil.

I've started building up the smoke. Made from some cushion stuffing. I don't want a long trail of the stuff, rather the beginning of it, as he made what was his final approach and subsequent coming together.

Also, I'm confining the black stuff to the underside of the Dornier.

Here's progress thus far.







Cheers all.

That smoke is superb Ron!

I'm all over this! Pete is so right 570. That looks the Bomb!!

Hi Ron
Smoke looks good. Looked at your 'Partisan Attack' thread but can't see photos Maybe it is because it's a few years old.
Jim

[spanner570]

Cheers boys. I've not 'made' smoke before, so I'm well happy my first go passes muster.

Jim. If you fancy a second go, they are there, just scroll past the 'View Attachment' list, and they are next in line.

Hi Ron
I only looked as far as the "attachments" - didn't scroll far enough down. That's a great model. Not seen anything like that. Even as a mere lad you were very good as this game.

Seeing all this damage I was just thinking “Watch out for Mr Race!” But it’s too late he’s on his way with pockets full of matches!!!!! QUICK RON HIDE THAT DORNIER!

Ron,
Just had a catch up really like where this is going.
