And this build is amazing, although in 48th scale.

My flabber is totally gasted!  :o

He must have been out of his mind to even contemplate building that monster, and it only took 8 months from start to finish!!!

Are you planning on doing a similar job to the interior on your 1/72 version Cap'n?

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I've been to the Thor launch pads at Harrington and they are impressive.

A little visual help for those who wonder....130A and 133A, 144th scale.

That Cargomaster sure is one big 'ole machine!  :o

I recall seeing one on the ground at Brize Norton in the early 60s, and a truck was pulling a very long trailer out of the hold. The trailer seemed to go on for EVER, it was that long!

That DOES look good in RCAF markings, doesn't it? The RAF version will be similar, but with a blue stripe of course.

Where did you find that texture and what sim is it for please?
