Just found out that a build thread that I am following on Britmodeller, of a Vulcan, is not going to be flown by the usual crew.

I'm pretty sure that was on the Southend IPMS table near us at Telford. I know I have a photo of it. Looks very good in the flesh. I should have put my SAAF Hunter next to it

The guy who built that SAAF Vulcan was chatting to us on the SIG stand late on the Sunday.

Quite an oldie but new to me (link on today's Modeling Madness update):

I like that one, you'd never have figured it was the old Hawk kit. He made a great job of it, and a decent backstory too.

...you'd never have figured it was the old Hawk kit.

I did the instant I saw it, I've built a couple. Not the most accurate, but certainly good enough for whiffing purposes.

The Russian fan club re-posted my VPAF MiG-33 model and added an AI-generated title pic (hope the translation works; however, proper credit is given!):

As they always do.  Which is so refreshing to see.

Did they copy the backstory also? If not it was a nice job. Of course, how could they go wrong with one of dizzy's builds!

That Spit looks pretty slick !

Cars are not my thing but it is strange that you have to work hard to find finished A-Wing models.

That's pretty cool ! Defo different and would turn a few heads and get the Star Wars crowd thinking.

[jcf]

Cool. 

But it would probably be as craptastic as the majority of the streamlined rail dragsters.
🤣

[Rick Lowe]

It looks better like that, than as a stock A-wing... 

[su27rules]

Fantastic Awing roadster!!

Not a whiff, but certainly whiffable. Or whiff-fodder? Whatever, a very nice Valom HP Sparrow over on Britmodeller, so if any of you were thinking about one, have a look. I can think of a few schemes and users in our warped corner of the universe. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235165407-here%E2%80%99s-one-you-don%E2%80%99t-see-often-valom-hp-sparrow-mkii/
