Nice. What scale?

deathjester · « **Reply #2 on:** January 09, 2012, 05:18:26 AM »

Sorry! 1/144 scale. Great kit - it has loads of spare parts in the box, that enabled me to make a German rocket, too !!

The mighty F-14D Tomcat - Fujimi 1/72, in VF-2 colours.

And their new ride, the FA-18-F, again Fujimi 1/72

I bet your clients will be pleased as punch! Excellent work!

Well, this one really took some doing, but here's the Space Shuttle I've been working on!
Revell 1/72 - word to the wise: throw out the black line decals, and paint them by hand...

A couple of older ones:

1/20 scale Williams FW08B six wheeled, four wheel drive F1 car!

1/24 scale 'Big Wing' Harrier GR5K

Brian da Basher · « **Reply #10 on:** March 15, 2012, 04:29:32 AM »

Those are all incredible profession-grade models! I think I like the Shuttle best. It's a shame about those decals but to your credit and our amazement, your paintwork is so flawless it turned out to be an enhancement!

Excellent work. My favourite is the Harrier

elmayerle · « **Reply #12 on:** March 15, 2012, 10:53:25 AM »

Gorgeous Harrier and it makes a nice companion to a stock Second-Generation Harrier (I'd love to this wing mated to a Sea Harrier fuselage).

Funny you should say that: it was the original plan to build the 'big wing' onto a 1/24 Sea Harrier, but the client decided he didn't like the cockpit height, and we plumped for the
GR1/GR3/AV-8A kit instead, which also provided all the correct weapons, and a spare GR3 nose, which became the return capsule for a German Moon rocket...but I digress...

One of these days I might do a 1/72 version - maybe even produce some wings if anyone is interested...

DJ, I'm at a loss here, I can't decide which of your commissions is the best. So I'll take 'em all. Bag 'em , please.
I can see smiling, satisfied clients there. Congrats!

Doom! · « **Reply #15 on:** March 16, 2012, 03:17:44 AM »

I'm kind of partial to the shuttle, but I gotta say that harrier is pretty sweet too. :)

deathjester · « **Reply #16 on:** March 16, 2012, 04:35:47 AM »

Thanks for the kind words guys!

If anyone is interested in doing a big wing Harrier, I can still find the drawings I used to plan the wing shape/size, and talk you through it. But a word of warning - if you do what I did, and glue large pieces of plastic card to the existing Harrier wing, watch out for the whole lot rippling up, and bringing you out in a cold sweat! Only thing to do: sand the whole wing to hell and back!!

elmayerle · « **Reply #17 on:** March 16, 2012, 11:44:15 AM »

Well, I'd like a set of the drawings, though I'll likely be working in 1/72 or 1/48 (the former is more likely). Since the big wing was supposed to fit first-generation Harrier and Sea Harrier fuselages, it might look interesting combined with the LIDS et al. of the AV-8C.

Hope these are ok for you guys!

deathjester · « **Reply #19 on:** April 17, 2012, 12:47:26 AM »

Here we go, the lighted 1/1000 Polar Lights Enterprise - A!!

Brian da Basher · « **Reply #20 on:** April 17, 2012, 03:05:40 AM »

Very cool, Mr Deathjester! I really like the lights.
