johnsan Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Nice model, Old Man. Sorry about the delay in adding your Gladiator to the completed models thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mikester Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Nicely done, sir! My apologies as well on not getting it added to the gallery promptly. I've been trying to check in a little more here as of late but still hit and miss as far as time I can devote to plastic these days! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Old Man Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 (edited) Thank you for the kind words, Gentlemen. I stand by my statement, however, and put this one in the 'going to do better next time, dammit' file. Of course I also stand by the statement this is a good little kit I would have no hesitation building again. It does need a little work, the motor and cowling particularly, and the canopy (I am very pleased I could manage a modification of a canopy successfully), but it certainly scores in the cheap and cheerful and available categories. And to our esteemed moderators: no need to apologize,I should have sent you a note. Thanks for setting this thing up. Edited September 9, 2011 by Old Man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnsan Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 And to our esteemed moderators Old Man, obviously you've never met the Mikester or me. Nothing esteemed about either of us. Thanks for the kind thought, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deacon Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Good job on the camo Gladiator mate. I agree with your comments on the Airfix Gladiator and the Revell Matchbox kit. The Revell one is the better and I have one in my stash to do. In fact, I may be tempted to make up a silver one for this GB. Well done again. Deacon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope you do enter a 'silver wings' Gladiator here. I hope to be able to manage building one of my Heller Gladiators in such a scheme for this group build, though it will be a close run thing to get done by New Years, with the other builds in hand.
