Very nice work.

Tiny little model - one of my smallest. But since it's in 1:72, I can compare it to a lot of my other models (SF included) for size comparison.

I like your sci-fi models.
9 November, 05:06
Dave Burgess
Thx, Ben. They're labours of love for me. I have a passion for aircraft and Formula One, but the models I have the most fun with, are the SF models. The lighting projects are always a challenge. I'm just finishing up my aircraft stash, and then there's a whole BUNCH of SF kits still to build!

I took this one on as a one day build challenge, after watching Adam Savage (Myth-Busters) slap it together in a one day challenge. His guest was the actor who played the engineer in the BSG reboot. He put the kit together in an hour or so, then hit it with a couple of rattle cans (2 min), and voila! Took me back to my youth when building a model was a single day's entertainment, and it turned out pretty well too!

Ben M I didn't have rivet problems with mine: I built the Project-X vacuform 1:72 Thunderceptor, No rivets on that kit. It also provided a 'butterfly' tail option, which I did. The butterfly tail was installed after the second prototype crashed and the tail of the aircraft destroyed. It's in this collection. I assume you have one of the vintage XF-91 kits (Lindberg 1:48?). If it was mine - I'd sand off the rivets!
5 November, 03:59
Ben M
Yes I have the Lindberg. It's got more rivets than a WWI tank. Not sure if I'll sand them off or go with a "vintage" build. I recall when I built it when I was a kid I brush painted it testors red metallic enamel.

I'm calling this completed, for the moment. The model is missing the two exhaust cans. I bought the model about 10 years ago, but never checked the parts until I started building it a few weeks back and realized they were missing. I've contacted Arnold from Anigrans and he is sending two replacements. One I've received and attached them, I will do a complete photo-set.

It was just good fortune that I got THIS one! I've wanted a model of this for decades - didn't even know ther WAS a model. This popped up when was browsing EBay around 2016.
P.S. The entire 26 episode season of UFO is available on Youtube

Skyhiker. Interesting story behind that (from Gerry Anderson himself). Gerry needed backing from a U.S Network in order to make season 2 of UFO. But the network executive wasn't interested. Apparently he was fed up with all the Earth based science fiction series being peddled. Gerry persisted, until finally the executive said he would ONLY produce the show if it had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Earth. When Gerry suggested that they base the entire series on the moon and didn't do any Earth based scenes, that STILL wasn't good enough. Then Gerry suggested that in the pilot, they have an accident on the moon that blows the Moon out of Earths orbit, the executive finally relented, and Space 1999 was born.

Thanks, folks! I've got another one upcoming in the next few months - gonna take the Execuform 1:72 XP-54 Swoose, and convert it into the XP-68 Tornado. Vultee was going to upgrade the engine to drive contra-rotating pusher props. The project neverr left the drawing board, and the XP-54 project was canceled.
It involves a) working with the very BASIC Execuform kit, and modifying the fuselage to include intake scoops in the fuselage above/behind the canopy, and modifying the vertical stabs to a more rounded appearance. First tho, I have a number of Anigrand resin kits to complete in this US Fighters series.

Thanks, guys! My favourite CH-113 of the two is the old red, white & blue RCAF version, not for the paint scheme as much as dealing with the missing parts, replacing them with resin cast replicas and finishing the model. Nice thing was - the guy who I bought from on eBay refunded my purchase and let me keep the kit. So the price was certainly right.

First problem: Got the white base coat down, and started to apply the decals. Unfortunately, the Microscale decal sheet is so old that it's dried out and the first decal completely fractured when I tried to apply it. So before doing any more, I need to trip down to the local hobby shop and get some decal fixer. I've also scanned the decal sheet, and in the event that the decal sheet can't be used, I'll print another. That's plan B, because the pale blue colour of the backing paper means you have to colour adjust the scanned image to remove the blue background, and the dark blue of the decals comes out more black. Kinda ruined my day!

Continuing the build, while I wait for the decals. It's at the paint stage now; just have to apply the canopy mask.

This project turns out to be a bit more complex than converting the Bell P39D into a Bell P-45 (P-39C) by snipping off a couple of wing guns. In this case, three P-3Ds were modified for ground & flight testing. The intended engine was the Continental 1430, but they were only ever flown with the AlLison V-1710. They were used to test various wing and tail configurations, and the fuselage was lengthened by 21". The production variant was to be called the P-76, so the designation used during testing was XP-39E. The only pic I have, shows one of the XP-39E's with clipped wings and tail surfaces, like the P-51. The wingspan was 35'10" almost 2 feet greater than the P-39D (34'0")
So - the plan is: get a P-51D kit; scavenge the wing and tail surfaces (i.e. chop off the back end of the Mustang fuselage); do the same with the Airacobra and graft on the Mustang's tail; re-sculpt the Mustang's wing to match the contour of the XP-39E; remove the wheel wells from the Airaicobra's wing (which I stupidly glued in already; cut openings into the Mustang wings to accommodate the Airacobra's wheel wells. Sounds like a LOT of putty's gonna be involved in THIS one! Wish me luck!

Bell P-45 (P-39C) Airacobra. A fairly simple conversion:
"After completing service trials, and originally designated P-45, a first order for 80 aircraft was placed 10 August 1939; the designation reverted to P-39C before deliveries began. After assessing aerial combat conditions in Europe, it was evident that without armor or self-sealing tanks, the 20 production P-39Cs were not suitable for operational use. The remaining 60 machines in the order were built as P-39Ds with armor, self-sealing tanks and enhanced armament. -Wiki
Since the added pilot armour and self sealing tanks are not visible externally, a couple of snips to remove a wing gun on each side, converted this P-39D model into a P-45 (P-39C). I stuck with the decals provided (Soviet A.F.)

According to Wiki - the trapeze and belly tank were a P-39D modification, but the interior of the tank was critical for me to get enough weight forward of the main LG to keep this model from being a tail-dragger! The interior construction of the forward fuselage and placement of forward LG made it VERY difficult to get enough counter-weight in there; a problem I did NOT experience with the RS Models kit.

For my next project i have tentatively I was going to try making my own decals. I've also used stsdecals in the past.

A friend who's uncle flew a fury in Korea told me how the yank jet pilots got really angry when Furys sped past them. Brilliant job

Not surprised. Korean era jets were notoriously underpowered.
