Mashing the Bison together got my vacuform juices going... I have 2 vacuform kits left, models I really want in my cabinet - a Comet IV and a Britannia both in 1/72. I pulled the Comet out and my mega big wet sanding board to sand the parts down to size, after a couple of hours of this I figured I would cut the Britannia out and sand that back as well seeing's I had the board out!
I guess about 6 hours work to here, now I am going to have to think, build both at same time or one at a time? if one at a time which one first?
I am gonna have to toss a coin.

Stuff the vacs! For Christs sake man tell me what's going on with your Tango sitting quietly on the box!

You make this vac stuff look easy Wal, I have a NImrod I cut out ages ago, maybe I should have another crack at it.

Cheeky ol' bugger! That's going to be a beauty (well, as beautiful as a Trojan can be)!

it's funny, the vacs seem to give me more pleasure than the standard stuff.. analysing this I come to the conclusion I am better suited to coarse industrial modelling..the fact they have fewer fiddly parts greatly appeals. Then there is the thrill knowing a mistake could completely ruin what always tends to be an expensive kit! That said I would never build a vac if an injected kit was available.

who makes the Nimrod? is it better than the Airfix jobbie?
