    Classic Airfix Vickers Vanguard

    This ones now finished its got me some way to getting my mojo back.

    I have put some spinning props on and turned the front wheels and have depicted it taxing off the runway on two engines.

                    Great looking build peter.A simple but very effective base to show it off as well.Im not a fan of prop blurs, but I must say yours look very good.

                      I concur with what's been said. Nice build of a rarely seen subject.

                        Beautifully done Peter. I'm glad you turned the outer engines off, that looks really good. And you have two running props for the second one

                          Clever idea showing the inboard props spinning as they did when taxiing to the arrivals. Remember flying in a Vanguard in 1966 from Glasgow to Heathrow on my way to Italy. Very comfortable aircraft, used to be a pleasure flying before 'cattle class' was introduced. Cheers Derek
