Title: Squadron Leader David Mary Tidmarsh MC
Post by: Phillip on October 28, 2014, 07:44:45 PM

Hi All,
This is a converted figure of the Model Cellar "Bishop " figure. It is supposed to represent Second Lieutenant Tidmarsh after his miracle escape from an artillery shell at 10,000 feet. The photograph is in the Windsock Datafile of the DH.2, It had to be done because by great fortune WNW gave the glazing and the decals to make this very aircraft for their current boxing.
   The ladder in the photograph was tricky as I could not find a photograph of the back of the ladder but again by great fortune I found a picture of the back of this type of ladder in the Vickers Gunbus Windsock Datafile. So bit by bit I am making a diorama of that photograph.
Regards
Phillip

This is a picture of the ladder in the photograph, before I found what the back of it looked like. Now I know I have got to make I think it will be my fourth or fifth attempt. Anyway here is an excuse for another picture of Squadron Leader David Mary Tidmarsh.
