Sir Percy Boo Hiss as I like to call him

And for interest the Avro Triplane used in THE film still flies on windless days at the Shuttleworth Collection.

He looks a bit like Terry Thomas!

That was the general object: Sir Percy Ware Armitage, the evil villain in the movie, "Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines" - as played by Terry Thomas. He also works as a steampunk subject....

Just sayin'.....

 

[Richard Baxter]

Ah, you got me there. Haven't seen that film. Was thinking of some of the Carry On films.

[Viking Bob]

The Shuttleworth Collection recently managed to acquire all the flying replicas made for “Those Magnificent men in their Flying Machines”. They have Stuart Whitman’s Boxkite and the Sir Percy’s Triplane Flying and the others are to be assembled soon. The Replicas are very faithful to the original designs. If I recall the Triplane has a Cirrus engine from a moth which is “modern” but dates back to the 1920s .

If you're going to search for it , also look for "School for Scoundrels"

Actually I quite like the way Mr Good has portrayed them, very realistic when some one is in the bright sun.

 

[Red Five]

Bought mine!


I’d better scratchbuild an Avro Triplane now!

But then he must frown

I sculpted the figure but did not paint it. If I were painting it, my personal preference is to paint the eyeballs. I always do that and it is especially important when doing a portrait....
