Thanks for posting Tim

we all had a great day - for ref I note MS Modeller (see FRIENDS in links page) already has the video out - we are towards the end but get super coverage and very nice comments.

Mike

Lovely job - one day I'll do a current Canadian bird with all the lumps 'n bumps!

Yes, it's the LS tooling - after all these years still a very viable model, been re-boxed several times - I did one in Iranian 'wavey blue' scheme that has been to a few shows.

Quite inspired to delve in the stash ...

Now THAT is a cracking model - especially given the Anigrand starting point !!

Mike

Lovely job as always

You sort of expect to see it with the torpedoes (hand's up everyone who built the original Revell model back in their youth)

I hadn't realised just how many 50 Cals the configuration toted!

Keep 'em coming sir !

Nice job. Mine suffered undercarriage failure during transport to a show - Must get it fixed !

Drilling the windows is a pain but worth it

Like you I really like the Sand camo I came within a Gnat's of Flying in one at (I think) Thorney Island but at the last minute it went Ti.....errr.......u/s ...

Lookin' good sir !!

Hmm - never tried to access it on a phone - it certainly works on my laptop - by the way check David Ferrari's views !!

Anyone know more than me about this here new-fangled tech stuff? (actually that's everyone............)

Mike

Interesting statistical footnote - given that there's only about 60 of us members, your Neptune seems to have attracted global attention....check out how many views the post has had!

That stirred a few memories !

Considering the age of the kit you have definitely sorted it ! I never quite understood, given the box art, why Airfix didn't include a deflated skirt (same problem with Trumpeter's LCAC - Pit Road apparently briefly re-boxed it with a resin skirt but I never saw one ...

Nice one !!

You would think, wouldn't you, that someone would have done a new Neptune by now?. That said I've built it and agree it takes a bit of fettling, but it is essentially the right shape - and the vac canopies are thick enough to take some fettling.

Good to see one coming along so well ...
