Always great to see a Vulcan model and very nice it looks too. Great idea for the stand as well .

What manufacturer is it? sorry to inundate you with questions .

[AlexEarwicker]

First off thanks for the nice comments secondly, this was a model that was started by my son about 4 years ago, it came to me in february of this year when i started taking this kind of stuff seriously. the scale of it is 1:72 and i have a very strong feeling that it was an Airfix kit. It came to me with one wing badly glued on and all the bits loose in the bottom of a box. i had no idea wether all the pieces were there or not but went ahead. sizable chunks needed to be taken off the wing where it had to be wrenched apart.but a touch of tlc and a lot of putty and time and she doesnt look half bad

Looks like you managed to salvage her, good job mate.

Nice work, gotta love the Vulcan. Love the 10mm copper stand too

[AlexEarwicker]

I have to admit that the copper pylons are a fail....i tried to bend them nicely but they kinked....i will be redoing that part and the 10mm copper pipe was too large it nearly ripped the plane apart so i used 8mm
