Blackadder's Scratchbuilt Thunderhawk

[Blackadder]

Another bunch of blurry images but I figured out what I am doing wrong. I need to set the camera to Macro I just gotta find how to do that. Of course I could just read the damned manual but wheres the fun in that?

Yeah Blackadder you'll have the damned thing for 20 years and never find half of what it's capable of.

Gee I'd didn't know it could do that.

Waddaya expect from someone whose VCR flashes 12:00 all the time.

The black tape keeps peeling off.

VCR?

The detailing on the upper engines looks fantastic mate. Not that the detail on the lower sides are any less well done, just so much less there, appropriately.

Are they permenantly affixed to the wings/fuselage now, or just placed for the pics?

Amazing work. All the steps and explanations are inspiring.

Wow, ten days since I posted on this thread! Sorry I've been busy. For those of you that have been following my Warlord thread I have not forgotten this project but I did need to update the Warlord thread as well.

I ran into a snag on the engines which stymied me until I found a solution and strangely enough it was in my medicine cabinet namely the exhaust cones. While innovative the thread cones never satisfied me as a viable material. This morning while brushing my teeth infrequent as tha may be I noticed that my Shoprite mouthwash had the precise requirements for a plastic exhaust cone. So now I have a lifetime supply of cheap mouthwash (if I forgo opportunities for osculation) and three ready made exhaust cones as well

Of course you realize that the above tale is a complete prevarication; I've had this idea in my pocket for six months or more.

Confession is good for the soul.

There's a Warlord thread? Based on your work on this, I can't wait to see what you can do with a beast of that magnitude. Might even ecnourage me to finish detailing and painting mine. Or at least fix her.

Sorry I haven't actually posted my Warlord work on this forum. I'm basing my Warlord on Dave Smith's monumental work but had some problems with scale so rather than post inferior work I've held off until I have some verifiable plans...........starting that thread soon.

I am currently designing a Warlord based on the Dave Smith model
