Man alive.....some of those outdoor shots look like the real thing :bow: :bow:

What did you place it on to get the eye level shots?  Car roof?

Cheers chaps, actually Nev it's a large piece of MDF laid on top of a high hedge which backs onto my garden...behind that are the distant wolds.

Thanks a lot, if I have a bit more time and use  photoshop, I'll see if I can come up with some more.

Actually I have done a some more, well the sun was shining so what the heck!!.....I'll post these models later if anyones interested.

Cheers Dunc, I'll have a play with Photoshop C3 and see if I can merge a few of the images with some 60's SAC base scenes!
Might be fun..

Have a word with matrixone, he's the resident king of photoshop (check out some of his threads in Current & Finished projects to see what I mean).

Absolutely stunning work! Can you give a few details especially on the EE P.42?

Hi Martin, glad you like it. With regard to the EE P42, I was sure that I'd posted the build here but it appears I didn't get round to it for some reason!!

Its a scratchbuild using plasic sheeting, an ICM MiG 31 forward fuselage, old Revell X-15 cockpit, WM TSR-2 undercarriage and Black Box resin wheels, plus a whole raft of extras from the spares box, plans and data from Tony Buttlers 'British Secret Projects Hypersonics' book and Josef Gatials beautiful art work, here's a few pics, hope they're OK..

Can I suggest you to open a different thread per each model?

This way we will be able to praise specifically.  :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:
... And search can be better. -_-

Anyway I have to say that you are just a genius. Highest level modeling! :thumbsup:
