Sorry about that!
Building "outside the box"
You might not believe this, but I get bored. Day in, day out, after 40+ years of model making it can get a bit stale seeing the same old thing on every website and contest table, hanging from the cieling or in my own display case.
Just last night at my local bar I was asked what my favorite airplane was and nearly got punched when my answer was NOT the P-51 Mustang. Like any model builder, I like the Mustang, but other than a few racing variants I am not likely to ever build another.Too many much more intersting and worthy subjects await us out there in history land. The menu is vast, if you're willing to look around and do some research.In this case, google really IS your friend.
The model pictured above is a perfect example of what keeps me interested in this wonderful passtime.Built over in the UK by James Hatch, this is the Hong Kong Models Gloster Meteor F.4 plastic kit in 1/32 scale, converted to the two seat T.7 trainer using my resin conversion set available on this very website.
Besides being an exquisite example of the model builders craft, this build is of a unique moment in the life of an historic aircraft, finally restored to flying status , but before the inevitable re-paint as a service machine.
The finish, consisting of different types of primer and raw metal offers the builder a very challenging and eye-catching alternative to the usual stuff, and assures a model that will be an instant stand out on any contest table and in any display. You can't miss it.
It will make you think. It certainly got me all fired up when I saw it. I've been lucky enough to be around a fair number of for-real aircrat assembly lines as well as warbird restorations, and there's no shortage of otherwise boring subjects from all eras of aviation ( and automotive ) history that could be built like the model above, somewhere along the way from a pile of bits to flight...Maybe even a Mustang!

Thanks for the added focus on
Thanks for the added focus on our area of focus. I believe that we will see more ways that we can add this.
Thank You!
I just wanted to say thank you for all of your hard work. I had to put in years of time and hard work into my Parker Hail Repair business, so I know first hand how big of an accomplishment all if this really is.

Models did it for me
Models were my first foray into cars. I actually learned about car parts from models before becoming a mobile mechanic in La Palma, CA. Now I own the business.
The models here look like full size planes and cars - amazing.
Blown away by the detail of these models. Unbelievable care has to be taken when building these.....just like the care we'll take when making repairs as a mobile mechanic in La Palma, California.
Great design
Googling is easy but when you are passionate about what you do, you will really have a good output.

Historically Cool
I do like the idea of building a model of the way this particular plane looked at that moment in history - has a lot of character to it! Thanks for sharing.
https://www.procarpetcleaningaurora.com
Awesome, Right?
Like you I also love that idea. Anyway, aside from the plane model signifies a moment in history, I appreciate his talent. It's not easy to create miniature plane models that would appear like how the exact plane looks.
It just sad there out of business in the meantime but I am hoping they can get back soon.

It was a great read. I like how the author is thinking outside the box. With such a new tiny plane model came out.

Thank you for putting this out there. My favourite plane is the F86 sabre.
Nothing Beats Building Outside the Box
I admire the author's work. Building outside the box means he doesn't follow any instructions. And for that since he's an expert, he was able to create an amazing plane model. Anyway, my favorite plane is JunkersJu-88 "Stuka".
