Super work Ian. Your 1/44 is better than my 1/72 work :P

Thanks Joe 

[papa 695]

I got these from a site Joe recommend Shapeways there 3D printed 


Ralph if your looking can you paint them ? 

[Guest]

These are looking great Ian.


Paint em...I can hardly see em .

[papa 695]

Well I've managed to get them painted. I couldn't quite get the eyes right so I opted for them wearing goggles.  9_9

[Guest]

That's the way to go.


Nice simple blocking in of the colour's,suit's the scale just fine.

[monica]

nice work with these two,looking good Ian,

[Guest]

I agree; pilots look just right.

[yak face]

The pilots look brilliant Ian , especially considering theyre about the size of ants!!!! They look very well detailed for the scale , i didnt realize these 3d printers could do things that small ! Youre going to have to do something big after this build to get youre eyes uncrossed!!! Cheers tony

[colin m]

Great work Ian.  You have put more detail into the tiny beauties than I would have done in 1/48!

Cheers Tony.

Just ordered one to convert into a Devon Caravette that my dad used to borrow off my uncle in the early 1960 in which we used to 'Tour' the North Norfolk Coast three years in the trot.  I did start a conversion some time ago but it got disposed of in the clearances....... Doors have to swap sides and roof and rear side windows have to go.  Needs converting to right hand drive and then fitting out internally as I remember the one I travelled in.  Should be fun  :$

Thanks Graham, and I'm now looking forward to seeing your convention on the table.
