I have to say I wasn't sure how you might pull this off, but you have excelled yourself! Bloody marvellous! It's almost indistinguishable from the original! Bill
That's an outstanding scratch build outfit, Woodsy. Looks every bit the part. Must be very satisfying to be able to create something to this spec. The pics really do justice to this aquanaut of the deep.
Ta very much Tone, it was a lot of fun making all the bits. I enjoyed solving the problems they presented. I was going to involve real water in the photos but kept it simple.
Wow, that is amazing. A really great model, after all your hard work. Combining so many different materials must have presented many problems of its own.
I wouldn't advise diving with the faceplate open!
ReplyDeleteIts a Palitoy sea where you can do it though!

DeleteI think I recognize every part! That little flag buoy, the weight belt, the air hose. You outdid yourself!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Baron. Glad you recognise stuff. Makes it worth while. I did add some ofy own bits. My divers licence!
DeleteI am beyond impressed! That is a lovely piece of work and fits perfectly my lifelong ethos "If you can't afford it, make your own!"
ReplyDeleteAw shucks Looey! Thanks a bunch. Means a lot.

ReplyDeleteThanks Paul! I do like solving the issues that come up with all the bits n bobs.
DeleteWhat a fabulous build Woodsy - you've outdone yourself with this one I must say! This is deserving of a display case all its own. I'm amazed!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ed! Very kind. It's gone in a display case with his Mountie and Lifeguard mates!
