I hope you enjoy the photographs even if you are not modelling this odd little bird. As always please feel free to download the full size images for reference material from my Flickr account.

Thanks again

Post by: Bughunter on July 17, 2020, 03:14:08 AM: Thank you Richie for sharing such a great walk around with us!
You have an eye for the details.

Too bad you are not a basketball player with 2,20m, then we would have cockpit photos now.
But then you would earn millions and not take pictures of 100 years old airplanes, so everything is fine as it is. 8)

A big THANK YOU!
Frank

Post by: RichieW on July 17, 2020, 03:26:41 AM: You are very welcome chaps, I enjoy taking photographs and if they help somebody make an accurate model it would make me very happy.

SP, you now have a great excuse to build another of these odd little aircraft. The mechanic told me it is really awkward to fly and the display pilot doesn't like it all!

Frank, I can compromise and take up walking on stilts. I will see if I can get to know the staff at the museum so they might let me get some cockpit photos.

Post by: smperry on July 17, 2020, 04:40:46 AM: Has anyone built the Special Hobbies 1/32 M1c? I built the Spin resin one in 1:48 and the Pegasus in 1/72. Are there any other offerings that come to mind?

Post by: smperry on July 17, 2020, 11:56:58 AM: Oh yeah, the Blue Max kit. Never heard of Alley Cat. Have to look out for both.

Thanks for doing this ;)

Is Shuttleworth open again? I need my yearly fix.

Cheers,
Bob

P.S. I hope you don't mind, butI have compiled all of your pictures into one PDF file. Full copyright has been acknowledged. Happy to remove link if inappropriate.

Post by: RichieW on July 17, 2020, 08:33:34 PM: Hi Bob, of course I don't mind. I took the pictures specifically for this forum. I'm very happy for them to be used.

Yes Shuttleworth is open and £15 gets you a 1 month pass. There is a drive in air display tomorrow. You can get tickets online still i think. Sadly Mrs W extracted a promise from me to attend a BBQ tomorrow before I realised the dates clash. Was wanting to the Tripe fly.

You could get a job as a photographer.

Post by: RichieW on July 18, 2020, 06:23:28 AM: Thanks Ken, I did actually do a lot of wedding and portrait photography as a sideline and a number of my shots were used in books, magazines and musicians promotional materials. I found the endless hours of processing images on Photoshop utterly tedious in the end though. Glad you like the shots, I will make an effort to get round more museums once travelling feels safer and get some more sets done.
