Re: Possible format for RIAT2021

It seems like processes are being rolled out to open up mass attendance events in Q1 2021 (e.g. covid test wrist bands). Optimism is building for a particular event next July. I just hope air arms commit to and work up the solo's. I guess the worst case is that national display teams will be availa...

No Roundels or Squadron markings?
No, it was the scheme applied to certaint Shars that went out to the Falklands when the war started, this particular frame is XZ-457 she was with Hermes and saw quite a bit of action.

Re: Academy 1/48 Hunter F.6

That's a very tidy and well finished model indeed Derek! Small point though, as I'm a Brawdy veteran with a huge Hunter database... XK149 as you've modelled her would be from the 229 OCU era at Chivenor when she was a straight F6 with no modified tail brake chute etc. Once she arrived at Brawdy, co...

Re: None Aircraft - My other builds.

Great to see, those ships are really well done and nicely mounted too. The finish on the Black Pearl is ace, did you use a wash of some kind? Used to enjoy the old Airfix 1/600 kits but haven't done one for ages, I should give it another go. Thank you kindly, The Pearl was painted with a few layers...

None Aircraft - My other builds.

As I mentioned - here are a few of my other model builds, hope they are of interest The Black Pearl is finished so is the "Grand Old Lady" HMS Warspite, but the Waterloo 28mm figures are an on going project as I plan to build a Dio of the attack on La Haye Sainte. https://i.postimg.cc/cJj0...

The diorama is made up of 1/48 Revell Mosquito B.IV, 1/48 Eduard IX, 1/48 Frog Willys Jeep and trailor, 1/48 ICM RAF Ground equipment and personnel, The base is from Coastal Ki...

Re: Possible format for RIAT2021

Its a very difficult subject to have a discussion about - because I think the event either happens in its current format, or doesn't at all. Its been made pretty clear that without the corporate income there'd be no show, and that security demand that each visitor enters the show ground on foot. Ho...
