I’ve got Gordon Tracy completed, I used a 1/72 scale pilot figure and placed a 1/48 scale head on top. To give it that puppet look.( I hope ) and used modelling clay for the hat.

I re-painted his face, and added some more detail in the cockpit, also got it put together.

Wot! No FAB1? Two reasons….I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything in pink built on here, and you could imitate Parker the whole time you are building it……

Funnily enough, I don’t really remember FAB-2. On looking it up it seems Parker lost the yacht FAB-2 in a game of poker!
