Thanks for your interest gorby and bughunter!
These are some quick images I grabbed on Sunday - will get some better ones and post here.
Part 'traditional' sheet styrene (with a balsa wood core for the wings) and part CAD designed and printed parts for the details, such as engine, exhausts, undercarriage, cockpit details.
Built for a former owner of the full-size aeroplane.

Those teasers you threw at us wet the appetite for more. I fully second Bughunters request.

Hi Dieter - I would have to borrow it back from the person I built it for - so will possibly be at Telford, but not sure at this stage.

That's „true" modeling! Great result & execution. Chapeau! Could you add some WIP pictures please?

Thanks for your kind words Bernhard and Robert - appreciated!
I've just uploaded some 'in-progress' images - I may have more which I'll add if I find them.
I'll be taking some studio shots in next few days.

Iain, were the wings repurposed from another kit or did you vacuform them? How did you make ridges so perfect on the wings?

Hi Skyhiker - that's an easy one - and quite an old technique. The wing cores are carved from balsa wood - takes minutes. A single sheet of thin styrene is then cut to suitable size to wrap around the balsa core. The positions of the ribs (and any other details) *insides* of the styrene wing skins are then marked out using a pencil - working from plans - and then gone over using a biro/ball-point pen along a steel straight edge using sufficient pressure to form the 'raised' rib feature on the outside. Skins are then bonded to the balsa core using epoxy - and cyanoacrylate/superglue on some of the edges. It's a really simple, and quite satisfying, process.

Thanks, again, for all your kind words - really appreciated - I never think anything is quite 'good enough' - so the feedback is really encouraging. Yesterday I removed the windscreen as I wasn't happy with it - and also have to replace the 3D Printed tail skid as it's broken for a second time - modifying the design of that to allow for a metal core - as I did with the main undercarriage legs. Have fun!
