Lovely, just lovely! I hope there will be a paintkit so that our talented repainters can do a Belgian one!

No paintkit as yet but I will put one together in time.
I'll maybe add a Belgian scheme to the model.

All of your models are excellent, Rob. They definitely show how much time and effort you put into making them! NC

If you need a VR Beta tester....

[noddy]

Rob kindly let me have a play and all I can say what a superb job he has done. It fly's great and looks great.

Are these screenshots from beta version? This skin is mat in real (dark sea grey/dark green). This is worth correcting.

[noddy]

Per Rob's comments this is still work in progress.

[Priller]

I'm so looking forward to this model!!!

I know everyone likes to be right but Meteor F Mk8 WF654 came out of the factory wearing Glossy Dark Sea Grey/Glossy Dark Green upper surfaces/Aluminium undersides.
Of course after sixty years in a museum the shine does wear off a bit!

Hi Rob, looks like I was wrong , in fact, it seems that for some time it was an unusual painting scheme, not mat as in WWII or during the cold war period, here is the prove:

Man learns all his life, thanks for the explanation!

And.... in the museum they are also not so dull, this photo was taken by me in Malta, it probably looks even better sometime:



it's a rarity, it has the original shell yet.
