Avro Vengeance

Following on from the in progress thread here.

It's finally finished! The home stretch was was difficult as I got the chronic shits from eating fish curry in India this week.  Almost had to take the model into the crapper to finish it this afternoon.

The Eduard kabuki masks are fantastic - don't attempt a WW2 era heavy without them. They are the greatest single advance in human civilization since the invention of the pre-nuptial.

Thanks to everybody who gave encouragement along the way, I would never have finished this monster without the positive feedback.

Sorry was lost for words there for a while - this is simply stunning.  The newspaper clipping is the icing on top of the cake - bravo!

This is amazing, so lovely
I just do not understand how an actual newspaper of the 1950s can prove this is not what-if genius  but sad Reality I don't want to trust this article, tell me this is a fake, please, just as psychological help...  Such a beauty lost is a so ugly World, this cannot be...

Wow.









I hope you're happy. You made me feel truly inadequate. And I think Tophe has gone bonkers too! ^_^
Beyond words...truly...no emoticon for mouth hanging open

Yes, the article is a fake. Just something I knocked up in Gimp to add a little flavour.

Thanks for the kind comments, everyone. They will spur me on to higher levels of whiffery!
