Also found at the German IPMS site ... from "Freightdog Models" in resin !!

QuoteDear Sirs,
Please find attached an early image of the masters for my first kit release, the Saunders Roe P177R in 1/72. This was a project aircraft that was cancelled before its first flight. Initial kit will feature decals for RAF 'in service' versions from 1960-1980's (including RAF Germany based).

This will be followed by the P177N 'Royal Navy/Export' version, which will also include decals for German Navy who expressed an interest in buying the aircraft before it was cancelled in 1957, opting to purchase the Starfighter instead.

The kit is being mastered and cast by Anigrand Craftworks in Hong Kong, and will be released in the next 3 months. Please see my webpage for more information, I hope you can use it on your news page!!

Best regards
Colin Strachan

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

experience has taught me to expect the worst.
