| Nice change of pace Bob. Looks really nice. |

| I was overcome by a bit of nostalgia myself recently and bought an old Monogram kit - there are no wrong answers Bob.
Your Cold War bomber looks great ! |

| Nice camo! I just watched a couple of YouTube documentaries on this aircraft along with the other V Bombers. Brits took a very different path then we did in the states, but the goal was the same. |

| ....but I do love this aeroplane ....

| I've been working with plastic kits again recently - semi trucks and motorcycles for my grandson. I have most recently been working on the out of production Monogram F3F Grumman Gulfhawk. It was a nostalgia buy too - lol. In terrible condition with parts missing and glue dollops everywhere (not at all as advertised but oh well) live and learn |

| It looks like they added a few planes since I was there in the late 80's. I don't remember the B-36, B-52 or a KC-135 being there. I would have remember those! You can tell that the airport used to be a base. Look at the names of the streets: Stratofortress Dr., Apron Ave, Hardstand Ave, Aviation Dr. |

| I want to get down to Castle Air Museum. You can fly in, I think. I know they have a Vulcan there, you can see that on Google Earth. |

| Cool set of models. Been wanting to do a scratch built balsa Meteor. It's on the list behind a few other potentials. I always liked the Vulcan myself. There was one in the Castle Air Museum in Atwater CA. I was stationed at Castle AFB for a short time and got to get a good look around the museum. Very cool. The Brits can make some really interesting looking planes. |

| ...There are only rafters above at the moment, and the temp. in the summer goes up to well over 100 degrees most days. |

| I have made a start on the Victor - love the shape of this Vee bomber. At a halt for a week or two due to having a ceiling installed in my garage/shop. |

This is not really what VA is about - but it is a thing I did a lot as a young teenager, in the 1950's |

| Merry Christmas ALL at VA! |

| I love that paint scheme, Bob. And you drew the plans? That's brilliant (as you Brits are fond of saying). By all means, use what you've learned and treat us to another beautiful model. Happy Thanksgiving all! |

| Thank you all for your kind words - Don't laugh, but I am just starting to put together a 1/32 scale Airfix plastic kit. The Fairy Swordfish. A change is as good as a rest they say! |

| The only reason it isn't perfect is that you, like the rest of us, know where the imperfections are in our models. Great job. |

| Great model, awesome talent!! |
| heywooood, Comment for image # 43606 | 17 Nov 21 10:57 |
| the Q6 you've made is a wonderful rendition, Bob - I always tell folks I'm going for progress, not perfection. If it looks like my work is improving, I'm happy. FWIW I like the prop spinners and the interior cabin work you did on this. |
