June 4Jun 4 I've been approached by the former owner and pilot of the Hawker Hunter "Miss Demeanour" to build him a replica of the aircraft in 1:48 for a trophy. The long and short of it is, I need some custom masks cutting for the star patterns. Does anyone know of anyone who's doing this, 1ManArmy excepted, I've spoken with Sven and he's flat out. Any contacts gratefully received,thanks
July 15Jul 15 Very "fancy" scheme ... almost gaudy.https://www.deviantart.com/sr71abcd/art/Hawker-Hunter-Mrs-D-263953951There's a great 1/32 build on LSP where the builder made star masks - you could contact him and ask him if he'd share the patterns. Considering for whom you are making the model, I would think he'd be proud to contribute.BTW, he mentions that the small stars tested the limits of his cutter - will be very challenging at 1/48!Large Scale PlanesHawker Hunter - Masquerading as Miss Demeanour - Finished...Oh I’ve spent too long painting shades of gray. So you know this one won't be like the other Hunters that have come before me I showed this pic of Miss Demeanour to my son last year and he ended up...Failing that, here's a paper model that could ease some of the mask designing:1/48-Hawker Hunter Mk.58A, UK registry G-PSST, "Miss Demeanor" - Paper Model - EcardModelsGood luck!Gene K
