Excellent work Wojtek.

Great work on the wings Wojtek, I'd have made a bollix of that if I tried it!

Has anyone emailed a link to this thread to Academy? They need to see how a 190 should look.

Wojtek the master!

What a bl**dy good idea M!

 

[Wurger]

Oh... thanks guys.I appreciate !!!!

For my farther work I needed to make a pattern for the accessing panels of the outer MG151/20 cannons that were on the undersides.These on lower surfaces of the model wing are of incorrect shape totally. For that purpose I bought a can of beer and made it empty by drinking ( quite tasty was ).Then I cut open the can and made the aluminium plate flat.Second step was to use drawings that I printed on the adhesive transparent foil.The panel was cut off and sticked to the plate.Then using drills I made some holes and cut down the panel with a scalpel razor.For finishing edges and getting a proper shape I used files.

Superb job! It must be difficult having to drink the contents of the modelling materials, but I suppose someone's got to do it!!

What we men have to suffer through, eh? Be strong Wojtek, we're all here for you in time of need!

[Wurger]

Not especially Terry.But I don't suggest any glue, paints etc.. drinking.

Thanks Jan and Marek.

Here next pics of the work progress.The first step was to sand off these panel projections.Then I used Superglue as a putty to fill the wrong panel lines.

 

[marek]

Keep working, master! We are watching!

 

[Airframes]

Great stuff, and so accurate, Wojtek. Amazing!

 

[Lucky13]

You know Wojtek, you should retire from your present job and start for one of the modeling manufacturers OR start your own company!

 

[marek]

...start your own company![/QUOTE]

We are good company for him, I think!

 

[Wurger]

I agree with Marek, you are the best company and I don't want any other.

OK. Here a couple of shots that show the work on these panels to its end. The next step was sanding the Superglue with
a nail-file and then engraving.
For that I used a thin needle and the Trumpeter engraver.Two last pics let see the effect of this.

 

[Lucky13]

Permission to swear!

 

[marek]

Yes! And with That optymistic accent...!

 

[A4K]

Wojtek - bloody fantastic mate!!!! I love seeing your work!!!

 

[Wurger]

THX Gents.

BTW I have sanded off these rivets from leading edges that remind me nails rather than rivets.

 

[Wurger]

Also I started making corrections to the main landing grear bays..the first step was to remove "interiors" of the wheel bays......a couple of pics here.

To be continued.....
