I've had this for a long while but last year I decidedto really do a job on it. At Telford in 2019, when I met up with you guys, I got a set of decals from 144th.com and that completed the job.

Made the Welsh Models Buccaneer a long time ago. Do like vac-forms more than resin but have you seen the 1/144.com Buccaneer?

It's really good but would have liked a vac-form canopy

Your vac-forms are fantastic, I always think that Vac-form building is the most difficult method. I have a vac Buccaneer, I've had it for years but never got up the courage to tackle it.

I also have a Vacc form Buccaneer kindly donated by DH106. I would like to add it to my Blackburn collection but I keep having a go then putting it back in the box. Keep thinking like TerryP that is would be easier to start with a lump of wood.

The 144 Co resin job is excellent - I have one in 'to do' The decals alone are worth every penny - I will concede that the only vac forms I've tackled have not gone well so it will get built ....honest......
