Jeff Taylor's Steampunked ACME Spitfire





Jeff Taylor (FatBoy on TRF) "Steampunked" his FlisKit ACME Spitfire.
The finished results are amazing! CLICK HERE

There are hundreds of rivets and plenty of cardstock trim.
I especially like the shingles on the fin root edge and the Zebra wood veneers with barrel hoops on the upper section. The stand-off launch lug is hidden in the pipework on the right side.


Jeff is donating the model to the NARAM 56 Canon auction.
If I were there, I'd bid on it!











Turned 180 degrees shows more detail.
Check out the screen on the lowest section shroud.











The gauges add dimension and more detail.
I thought the model was finished but Jeff added a darker "wash" to make the model look aged.
Truly inspirational work!
