Hi Barrie

This might be your best source of info:

Space 1999 Eagle Transporter Forum - Powered by vBulletin

but I honestly don't hold out much hope for blueprint-style drawings. Try looking on Amazon too for books by Graham Bleathman who did the

Thunderbirds FAB Cross sections: Thunderbirds FAB Cross-sections: Amazon.co.uk: Graham Bleathman: Books

and

Thunderbirds Hayes Manual: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Thunderbirds-Manual-Agents-Technical/dp/0857331175/ref=sr_1_3

Good luck and remember to post a WIP when you begin :smiling3:

Those are for the TERRIBLE, AWFUL, APPALLING live action move from a few years ago so not the classic design.

Did I mention how bad that movie was? It was HORRENDOUS!

Thank you for the help boldman or should I say BOLDMAN I have some of cros section books but still leaves a alot to the imagination if you know what I mean. YES the latest movie was terrible in every sense of the word typical hollywood they make a mess even of there own good programmes or comics they have to change everything to what they think people like they should just improve a little where needed not alter the shape and dimensions of everything..

I will keep trying if I get going I will post my progress of course,

thanks Barrie ( the old guy )
