Refurbishing manufacturers' metal desk models

There’s a guy always advertising in the classifieds of Flypast offering to make up kits- don’t know him but may be worth a call, as stated above some of these guys are pretty talented. Alternatively maybe Diverse Images can help- they work exclusively in metal.?

No joy in finding a suitable chap, so far.

For your AW logo, have you looked at back numbers of Flight from the period?

Good plan, perhaps.

I’m close to Oxford…..

For the (easy) unpainted metal finish try aluminum wheel polish from an auto supply store.
For the (hard) windows you could try a careful mask job.
Or if you don’t want to try it yourself, try to find a local IPMS member…a lot of those guys are very talented and are willing to do the odd “outside” job for the challenge or for kit money.

BTW:
I need to find someone who can produce new decals for a plastic/resin Argosy manufacturer’s model I found awhile back. Most of it isn’t hard, but I need the Armstrong Whitworth logo on a computer file someone can shrink and print as a decal.
