I agree 💯 with all the above. Really brilliant work, the finish is amazing 👍 and it's super 🥰 too!

Christoph Kunz
Taking a seat.

Villiers de Vos
Taking a seat as well. I have both these models in my stash.

Edouard Carr
Hey Villiers/Christoph - hope you enjoy the build and thanks for watching the progress. Thinking about a custom paint job on the second spitfire with reference to the album power slave of which Aces High is from. Have some home print decal sheets that I have been meaning to use for years so might try testing them out. Revell have been kind enough to send a second Eddie Sprue so will have him seated in both planes when completed.

Mr D
Brilliant 👍👍
Great project, Pilots looking menacing 💀💀
Enjoy

Edouard Carr
Cheers Mr D 😉

Alexander Grivonev
"Chubaca's human brothers" Eddie won't be happy about this comparison 😄

Kesa Tiho

Edouard Carr
Thanks Munky, I wouldn't be so hard on yourself you did a bang up job on yours! Glad your enjoying the build and I hope the final outcome comes off like I hope!

Christoph Kunz
All those decals...
This is going to rock the stage. 👍

Munkyslut
Thanks Edouard!

Geert
Speed of light…

Mr D
Nice to see something unique 👍👍
How has the self made decals been ??

Edouard Carr
Hey Mr D

They have been easy to print and super quick to detach from the backing compared to official decals. Interesting to play with but a note to the wise, figure the decals you want and their placement as transparent decals will only be visible on light colours. See my body art for an example!

You then have the issue of how to get round this, which I have yet to decide the best method. Thinking maybe a top coat then a second run through the printer!

Both white and transparent paper are hard to adhere to bumps on the surface without creating bubbles, think this might be A: thickness B:my poor application (more likely 😅).

I need to find some junk kits to do some proper testing before I next use them on a project I think 🤔

My favourite Gerry Anderson TV prog back in the early 70's, such cool machines, the SHADO's, the Interceptors, even Strakers car

Konrad -
Nice 👍

Fantastic job gorbygould!!! I have to remember your gorbygamy technique!

gorby
I'm glad you like it, I'm quite pleased how it turned out.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. 🙂

That astronaut on the ground reminded me of something. I saw a clip from a movie about some war on the moon. It made me think about the fact that war on earth is bad enough but war in space is horrifying. When you get shot on earth you can hide in a ditch, take some rest, tend to your wound and either go back to base or into the fight. If you get shot in space and it penetrates your suit your done for, you just die, no amount of bandages can help you in the few seconds you have. The last thing you see is the vast emptiness of space and/or the person who killed you. Your body dosent even decompose into the earth. You just lay there till you get back to earth or incinerated. Wow, see gorby a good build makes a person think about more than what meets the eye, this build is a perfect example. It makes you think. 11/10

gorby
Thanks Kesa. That's an interesting point.

Alec K
Very cool! No wip? 😢

gorby
Thanks Alec. There was a wip but unfortunately the site it was on disappeared. 🙁

Hans-Jürgen Haag
Nice job 👍👍

gorby
Thanks Hans. 👍

Mark Sherwood
UFO. One the best Gerry Anderson TV series. As far as world building and back story, intelligent scripts. Two things though the Moon Base Interceptors should of had cannons in case those humoungous missile's missed and Gabrielle Drake, fuelled a lot of fever dreams in my early teens. I could of been eleven though!

gorby
It seems we had a similar youthful love interest. 🙂
Thanks for the comment Mark.

Mark Sherwood
You're welcome, Gorby. 👍
