Brothers in arms

One of the Big Dakota models for Band of Brothers, they were filmed as several different aircraft for the Arnem parachute drop sequence in the first episode.




One of several Squirrel helicopters I made for "The world is not enough" I carved the wooden plug to make the moulds from as well, they were seen in the film with big saws hanging underneath, and like so much of my work... they got blown to bits!
