You really need to put those tubes into production Hobbes, I would definitely be a customer for some of those.

I've no experience with resin casting so I'd need some help there. I wouldn't mind making a couple extra as masters and sending them off to someone who can do the casting.

VERY neat work Haro, well done.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thanks! On one hand I'm quite pleased with how the launch tubes turned out, OTOH the last part I added (the smaller tube at the back) showed that the proportions aren't quite right. I only have photos and guesstimated sizes to go on, so I'll leave these as is and I'll build some more after I get to the Bristol Aero collection and measure the real thing.
