Thank you Stuart, I've seen some of your work, out standing, I would hold off the knitting thing for the time being lol. regards Glenn
 
Great work glenn, its going to be one mighty impressive dio! What scale is it? At first i thought it was 1/35 ,the detail is that good , but then i saw the 727 model in the background and started to wonder! Keep it up mate and keep the pics coming! cheers tony
 
Thread owner
Thank you Tony, the dio is 1/35 scale the toy 727-100 in the back ground was made by remco in the 60s. I'm converting it to a Fed-ex cargo plane, the toy still works and I have added timed strobs and landing lights to it. all I need is to paint and stincel it I just don't have enough room God forbid this stuff creeps into my wife space so I have stack it like cord wood LOL. regards Glenn

Glenn, this is perfect for the thread thats ongoing at the moment http://www.scale-models.co.uk/group-builds/14314-unofficial-kids-toy-remodelling-build-thread.html . This was started by andrew for a bit of fun to see if a childs toy can be made into something rather better - your 727 fits the bill ! cheers tony

Very impressive. The realism of the damaged tank is remarkable. I am looking forward to seeing it all complete.
