Silly Week 2005

 

This is my 1/72 scale Matchbox Starfighter, built OOB apart from an Aeroclub Martin Baker Mk4 ejection seat.  The paintjob was inspired by one of Jennings Heilig’s “What-if” profiles & represents a fictional RAF aircraft in the “Raspberry Ripple” scheme of the Empire Test pilots School.  paint is Halfords car sprays, with a few bits in Humbrol enamels.  Decals an assortment of Modeldecals & some odds & ends from the spares box.
