Nice smelling A/C

Isn't a turret something which moves?....the marking colours are exactly the same as used on other profiles, just look a bit weird, what shades would you recommend taking into account the fact that I have seen in the past two copies of the same mag and the colours look different and are very different from the photoshop file, which looks different on both my monitors and the angle at which the monitor is viewed at and the type of lighting.

Anyway the colours would have faded and greyed under the desert sun/sand!

Still on the plus side you've not complained about the basic profile yet

I don't know what you mean, it looks fine to me...



...waits for the inevitable explanation of old film etc

Don't worry John have changed the colours but thought I'd share this MkIII (G) with you instead, found out from the W/O of this one that the first time they fired the nose gun the perspex shattered so gave up on it!

Time to stop being serious for a moment and move on from Arrakis to this

I'm not convinced on the size of the torpedo but only have some rough photos to go on, plus if anyone has a good detailed turret shot it would be handy.

I'm guessing you want to know about the torp?


This is from the Erection & Maintenance manual. Unfortunately, it doesn't give a very good idea of the size. It's a Mk XIII torpedo, so it would be about 13.5 feet (just over 4m) long.
Note the torpedo shackle tapers to the rear.


Better late than never, right?

NICE WORK INK!!!! Did you spend more time on this plane than your usual fast deadline or have you learned some good new magic tricks? I really like the looks of this one, really full and solid

Looks nice,
However, I am personally missing some more gear in the glassy nose. At least shells stripe to feed the gun...looks too empty.

Agreed with Dave. I like this one. It's got an extra "something"
