Awesome!!!

Love that idea 💡   

So neat and tidy.

 

Well in a delightful touch, it turns out that a Meteor F.8 tailpipe fairing is the perfect diameter to replace the glazed tailcone on the cockpit pod, so we'll now have a Meteor intake on the fuselage and a Meteor exhaust on the pod!  

I've also found and modified another ideal part, but I'm keeping shtum about that one for the moment. 

When did I pass those Meteor bits over?  I have absolutely no memory of it at all.  Mind, I'll happily take any of the kit's leftovers.

It was ages ago, just after I floated my "Gloster's desperate three 'advanced' Meteors" idea. Since then, Special Hobby have produced Meteors that cover all the things I want and I've got them, so I don't need to struggle with Matchbox NF.11/12/14s any more. It wasn't a kit, it was a bag of random bits, including some vac-form and some resin which I presume was your own product. Happy for you to have it back if you want: I can give you an inventory of what's left if you want, but not tonight.

By leftovers, I was meaning the BV 141.

Some very intriguing mods going on here

Oh I see. There won't be many, to be honest, but you're welcome to them. Probably, but not guaranteed:

Nose glazing
Open and closed tail cones
Interior fittings including guns
Original prop + spinner
Undercarriage
Engine cowling front and exhaust/flap disc
Bombs
