Great show by the pictures Rolf. Nice models as well, I like the commended card Idea for those that do not get first etc. Gives more enthusiasm for those who make the effort to show there hours of work. Very Impressed  . |

Larry, I don't blame you, it's quite appealing isn't it............ Well first you will need a Classic Airframes Venom F1, not F4 as I did at first. I assume we are talking 1/48th? You can do it in 1/72nd.... Then you need to get the decals from the Matterhorn Circle, and the resin bits to convert the kit, whatever scale, all the info you will need is here, you will even see the photo I based the model on. www.mc-one.ch/Documents/right%20stuff/dokuments/venom/venom-1.htmHope this helps. Very well laid out site with lots of information that you can download. Have a look......... Colin |

Larry,
can only second Colin and offer some more help if needed - got enough bleeding knuckles on those kites in my military service ....
If you are looking for 1/72 > CMR are going to issue all 3 variants in due course, decals included.

Rolf Rolf, I found this on the CMR website: www.cmrmodels.co.uk/cmr-205/de-havilland-venom-mk1r.htmlLooks interesting. Larry |

Larry, Rolf,
Bugger me, I spend all that time modifying the kit and then some one produces one to buy...
Hope they sell loads, it's a nice little kit of an interesting subject.

Colin,
yes - nice and expensive but tiny - no competition for your fine quarter scale rendition !

Rolf, The Print icon is greyed out on my copy, and you can't select File + Print from the top menu. I did a Google search and there is a program you can download, that will enable one to print such PDF documents. I may try that. How much is it to order the Monograph? I didn't see it mentioned on that page, nor did I see where to order it from. I just managed to order a Classic Airframes 1/48 DH Venom FB.1, so I will attempt to build one in 1/48 scale. I will definitely need good references for that. Larry |
