Red face Billboard Trailer

I have begun to build up the Reids Flying Circus billboard trailer .I should have loads of fun with this one.I am using one I saw in Barnstormers & Speedkings for reference.I may or may not include the Harley as it depends on hangar floorspace and composition.I dont want to have too much going on. The same book has a lot of good ideas for billboard signage advertising the air show.
I have also begun the build up of the stove in the workshop.It was made for a victorian dollhouse and is very detailed.I have modified it to be 1/16th scale.I plan to light the stoves interior with a red light bulb to look like a roaring fire.I modified the interior to elimate the oven and have one big heating stove.I may leave one or two burners for hot coffee and include a small lunch area.

I know Stephen wont be happy but I would like to ask one off subject question.
I have been asked to restore 3 Travel agent type models that they have over at the museum where the Bleriot is being built.There are very large 1/24 jet models 5-6 feet long made of fibreglass, perspex and wood.They are cutaway to reveal the cockpit and cabin in detail.Would anyone have any info on this? Cheers! John.(sorry Stephen )
