Hi everyone, some of you may remember me as project d who built the BAe pegasus diorama. I´ve had to make a new account as i couldn´t remember my old details. I´ve made some progress with my projects and the diorama.

The dioramas changed size and is now half its original size and has a similar layout to the viewing area at conningsby. Heres a few pics to start with more to come.













Thanks for looking

Just a quick photo update of where i´m at with my projects,let me know what you think

Wow, some interesting stuff there! I particularly like the evolved Canberra with the big fans - a fighter? Or AEW/advanced recce with those big cheek arrays? And what's the black Jag got under the wing?
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

Plus whats hanging under the wing of the two seater?
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

I may be wrong, but it looks a bit like a TARPS recce pod from an F-14.

Thanks for the comments guys, the canberra is one of three developments of the remaing pr.9s in service and is meant to be an advanced recon with slar fitted in the cheek pods. The pod on the black jaguar was just spares chucked together to make a data sampling pod for the eurofighter and the the pod on the two seater was from a 1/48 eurofighter kit made to look like a recon and jamming pod as the t.2 has the nose art of a jaguar called ollie balancing on a ball which suited it as being a big cat that performs tricks.

Thanks again for the comments

Thanks Dan, i´m fairly happy with it now but i could improve the taxiway and still not happy with the taxi lines after the 5th attempt at them! only thing left to do on the diorama now is a couple of details and paint some backboards (which i am dreading!)

Hobbes

What is that Tornado with the bulged nose?

Model Mutt

Hi Hobbes, it was meant to be a quick build similar to an ef-111 but based on a gr.4 tornado but this is now stalled while i try find the 1/48 italeri tr-1 kit for another build

That F-19/YF-12(?) mix is simply stunning! 1/72 front with 1/48 back I presume?

Would be marching to the beat of his own drum, if he didn't detest marching to any drumbeat at all so much.
