DAVID SISSON FIREBALL XL5 MODEL AT ANDERCON

Another recently built model from David Sisson, the Fireball XL5.

David's previous XL5 model, which I believe was used in photos for the Network Fireball XL5 DVD box art, didn't have a removable Fireball Junior. Hence the remake.

  1. A thing of beauty. I think David should let me look after it.

  2. Ha, ha! I think we'd all like to have a go at looking after it, Kid. I think David was a bit concerned that someone might have looked after the Fireball Junior as he took it with him when he went for dinner!

  3. ha ha, I'll have it after Kid Scoop! A lovely model. How does he do it! The multi-windowed cockpit totally reminds me of the X40 Space Rocket toy, you can see where the X-Series makers got the idea for it

  4. Yeah, it is a super model Woodsy. What I do like about some of David's models is his delicate weathering techniques using loose graphite.
