to illustrate the answer to Aaron.Mai just below, these little pics of my 2 US drones in 48th… the bigger is a Global Hawk, on one pic it’s next to a 1/60 VF-1, the other to…
A little more progress on the 1/48 Lancaster. Under a time crunch so wanting to get it all buttoned up asap haha. Just finished with the cockpit and about to install and…
Piouuuuu this landing gear is just huge… the reason I don’t do the big bombers in 48th…
for the moment, the biggest I’ve build (excluding my Gundam OO Ptolemaios) is a 48th Global Hawk, making 73cm in wingspan… hum…
Very good job on this cockpit, it’s like the real one !
maybe you can add paint scratches on some parts, to get a light…[Read more]
a very old F4U4 from Academy, built almost 15 years ago, had a light cure to train me to new techniques… still missing the gun sight, too lazy to make it by now…
and goodies for future tarmac scenes, and the beginning of a build on SBD4 from Accurate Miniatures…
Thank you Aaron.Mai !
This one is an old Academy mold, not accurate… it was for training me to aero and dry pigments essentially…
Got others Tamiya Corsairs to build, I want them to be far better than this one… work to do with CMK’s ultra detail parts for some of them ^^
Started my 1:48 Tamiya Lancaster. Will be a Dambuster edition with the markings of Squadron Leader John Leslie (Les) Munro. Slow and steady progress, I am using the Eduard photo-etch sets with it.
Cheers Ratatarse! First time playing with photoetch so it’s a bit of a steep learning curve for me especially at this scale. It is however a lot of fun and has made the interior look great. ^^
I love PE but I’m not much skilled for making it “perfect” at the moment… will train again and enhance my models, when I got the time… and cyano, I ate all i got on a macross custom, need to buy more ^^
finally can start back after shifting houses (which sadly caused me to miss the contest entry .. well, onwards )
managed to get this off a friend .. which was built halfway ..well at least the cockpit is built and detailed extremely well ..
Really nice, I love the westland it’s a very good looking helicopter. And great work on your build, very clean, and helicopters are always complex to build.
Thank you :). This is my first helicopter project and the Sea King is an easy kit to build. I had fun building this kit and looking forward to build another one soon.
The build that almost “killed me” :), Testor’s 1/48 SR-71 Blackbird – gears up.
I’ve added True Detail’s cockpit – which I regret later since not much can be seen with closed canopy.
Initially, I wanted to build a hi-vis version but the decals deteriorated once it touches the water. I gave the decal sheet a layer of clear coat and switch to…[Read more]
I like the work that your showing with this Blackbird. I don’t know if you build any Gundam kits, but another modeler built a Blackbird plane with a Zeta Plus C1 into one model kit, and it also transforms into a plane too.
Thank you! I originally started out as Gundam modeller :). Now I have expand my interest into other genres, mainly aircraft. I’d love to see the said Zetaplus C1. Do you have any links of the work?
