Long story, but if I told ya I might have to kill ya!
If you read right through Bruno's thread you could piece it together.

Oh yeah, I found them ...

Wow, I feel like I just went to Fairford.....Thanks for the photos John!!!! I never thought Bruno had the Nimrod.....
I totally forgot about Murph's KC-135. I really like Bruno's models, but I was thinking about a scale at least 50% bigger.....
Just to let you know, Bruno also did a RAF C17.

I'd like to know what paper you use...cardstock seems too thick for 1/300...

Anyone can write down their requests in this thread, I decided to keep it "open".

The KC-135 Supertanker I showed with the Stealth fighter ... both are Bruno's at 1:300.

Bruno uses 80 gsm paper for his 1:300 models but I find it too light and easilly crushed ... by my banana fingers and/or my inquisitive grandson ... so I generally use 160 gsm card. I find it much easier to form, and if lightly dampened (Lick it or the tool) it can be stroked into quite complex shapes.

Yep, even this was made from 160 gsm card. One day I will build Monstero to go with it, but my hands are out of action for a while yet.



One day I will go right through Bruno's thread again, and try to catalogue all the give-aways, but 777 pages ...

Thanks for teaching me.....I never knew that I could use 160 gsm for tiny models!!!

Can't think of others at the moment but I'm interested in models of the following.

AN-72 Coaler
Thrust SSC
Chengdu J-20
Airbus A350
Bugatti Veyron (high detail)
