Rich, your capable of far better work IMHO, and this is well below par, so on that note i think you should send it quick smart to me in the UK, so you dont have to look at it any longer :lol
Seriously, a mammoth moment in studio GK modeling, i had my doubts, Neils master, is just sublime, accurate, delicate, graceful....i honestly thought "no way could this be a GK"........utterly jaw dropping, and this is a testament to the both of you!

Sensational job Richard. That is truly a thing of beauty - you and Neil must be very proud.

Thank you kindly everyone.

I've decided to make the wings pure fiberglass with not resin brush coat at all. Mainly for weight, these are super light, and a little more hollow since it's thinner. And that's a big plus when you're trying to snake the wiring through for the lights.


This set here is for Guy Cowen.

What fantastic news to come home to. Thanks Rich

 

[REL]

All done

Here's one that turned out grainy, so I removed the color and it kind of looks like a scan from a period magazine.

[Guy Cowen]

That is just sick, talk about setting a bar. How does anyone follow that?

Thanks everyone. Neil did such an amazing job on the pattern that it's possible to get it to look almost exactly like the studio model, or pretty close.

Absolutely beautiful! It was a lot of fun following this thread!!

Two words for you: AWE - SOME... :thumbsup That grainy pic really looks like it came out of an old magazine.

:love Wow. Great job Richard. Love it. The lights make such a difference to the build up. The final weathering is bang-on too.

Couple of things though....you're probably aware, but there's no harm in pointing it out...some of the tiny parts are missing.....
