Westland Wessex - Sky Pirates of the Nullarbor Coast

[Snowtrooper]

Unless she's one of the Sky Pirates. Then the damsels really are in distress

[zenrat]

I'm thinking she'll be Captain Fat Hamsters 2ic.

[Mossie]

The Orion set has a few, and you need the guy in the bottom left!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr me hearty.  Ye be correct there. Ye olde repeating cannonade, she be a beauty.

[Thorvic]

These any use ?

[zenrat]

Those look pretty good Thorvic.

Glued some bits together today after getting carried away and making seat belts for all the seats I added in the back.
Being a Chinese knock off the fuselage had male pins on both halves and the fit is a little dubious.

That I've never seen

We live in a very progressive society, I'm pleased that male-tab-to-male-tab kits no longer have to hide in the shadows of one's stash any longer.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr me hearty.  Ye olde repeating cannonade, she be a beauty.

Glad to be of service!

I don't know much about the Chinese governments attitude to same sex relations but I suspect they make the more rabid members of our coalition government look tolerant.  That might explain why the Wessex, an A10 and a Mystere all sought political asylum in my stash.  I haven't checked the other two for orientation - who knows, one of them could be a lesbian?

[zenrat]

I checked out the other two Chinese Matchbox knock offs in my stash.
Both have Letraset style dry rub transfer copies of the original waterside decals and tubes of glue sealed in plastic bags BTW.
The Mystere IV has male locaters on one half and nothing on the other - not even bosses where holes should be (and it looks good with MiG 21 wings).
The A10 on the other hand has the hetronormative arrangement of male locators on one half and female on the other.

Ah yes, but do they line up with each other?

[zenrat]

If they are like the majority of relationships - not often.

I had a few knock off Hawks with those little tubes of glue. If Customs had opened them it could have got interesting. When they'd come down from the ceiling that is  The smell took me way, way back to my childhood. "Honestly M'Lud I only opened the tube for nostalgic reasons " 

[zenrat]

I'm tempted to try using the transfers.  Not so sure about the glue.
Nose & tail are now attached so its PSR time...

[zenrat]

Commenced masking so I could put on a coat of primer to aid adhesion and see where to put the filler.
Stopped masking and re-attached the window that popped out...

Now allowing glue to dry.
