That's cool. Is there any way that you can replicate the reflective Westpace symbols on the side on the kits so they look right Anthony?

No the winch gear was scratchbuilt. He really has put a LOT into this model.
I have some ideas as to simulating the reflective logo, although it wont reflect I think I can make it kind of appear that way.....smokes and mirrors!
Did you check out his Lifeflight Metro as well Joe.
Cheers
Anthony

Don't tell me you are going to electrically back-light the logo?

Ha no..........Not cleaver enough. I think I can achieve it by differing shades like whites, silvers and bronzes etc.....have to experiment

Hi Guys, Thanks for the comments. Pete did a good job with the decals for me, they were two part and he added a silver over the white on the westpac which turned out pretty good though not very noticeable on the photos. Joe, I don't think I've met you yet either, I'm just a casual and haven't had many shifts since Ryan took Nicks full time job. I'm full time at airport fire over the runway and used to work with Sam before he Left to join the NZ fire service

That would explain things then, so... Hello!  ZK-LFT used to be ZK-PAA and was never with Air NZ or Origin Pacific. Nice build, I think Iain G was looking at making one of these up. |

Maybe you were thinking of the two Metro 23's POE and POF, which were until recently both in a version of Origin Pacific colours. POE I think is now in overall white with Courier Post logos to go on, POF will follow soon.
