Wellington HG

[Eddie M.]

Thanks Brian!

This is the last update before rollout, which will probably be tomorrow. The hinges are basic chevron shapes cut from scrap plastic.

The Wellington HG is done. I named her Lola after my recently departed 20yr.old cat. This is not a museum piece but it is a labor of friendship. A build like this would have normally taken quite a bit longer if I had gone into deeper detail, but that was not the intention of this build. I wanted a subject that looked good in a simple way and I hope I've achieved it. Anyway one looks at it, I did in rememberance of Gary.

I forgot to add the photos of the bomb bay with a few diffrent payloads I had sitting around.

Beautiful, Eddie.  This is the best "build it backwards" bomber conversion I've seen.

Excellent job Eddie, and I'm sure Gary would have loved it.

Beautiful work, Eddie - seriously awesome stuff.  Seven shades of it at least.  Love the camo, the four-tone over black is just nice.  I think I'll have to keep the painted canopy idea in mind when I go about 1/144 builds, might look nice on them.

[Brian da Basher]

Simply outstanding, Eddie! Your take on RAF camo really works well with the RAF markings and the black and yellow scheme on the undersides! The gold canopy and turrets are a beautiful touch! Both HOG and Lola would be very honored!

Thank you All for your gracious comments.   It was a very gradifying project to finish in the time I worked with. This one's for you HOG!

Just a couple more shots..

Well done, Eddie.  He would have loved this.  Sure love the scheme and the open bomb-bay is outstanding.
