Post Your Models!

[Maestro]

Nice kits.I like the figures.I didn't think anyone was still into them.

Here a couple from my "O" scale western train layout.Figures are 1/72.

Wow ! Good job with the painting !

Is it just me or does it somehow looks like a Union soldier being hanged by a bunch of Confed soldiers ?

 

[Matt308]

Ah ! And I thought it wouldn't be too obvious ! Looks like I was wrong... Again !

No worries, Maestro. She was a beaut. Us 'super-critical' monkeys are always looking for things that don't exist. Modeling is all about others educating you about your mistakes. Just witness my A6M5 fiasco.

Please don't take it as an insult. My builds have taught me more about WWII aircraft than any book with these forum blokes.

And for Godsake, please post more pics of your efforts. I'm always inspired.

 

[Maestro]

Oh, I didn't felt insulted in any way... Just surprised that the difference was so obvious.

I'll keep on posting pictures of my completed kits... Now I just have to decide which one will be the next to go on the "workbench"...

 

[Matt308]

Bring 'em all man. Bring 'em all. I'm looking at my Zeke on my counter after our family dinner. But can't work on it more tonight. Wish I could. So you have to work on yours, buddy. So I can at least see someone's progress!

 

[Airframes]

Agree with Matt, love to see some more. As for that colour being obvious - remember, the eye sees what it 'wants' to see; the camera sees it 'how it is'. With the convenience of a digital camera and a PC, it's a great way to spot potential mistakes, flaws etc, and be able to rectify them before it's too late.

Bring 'em on Maestro!

Alright guys finally finished her off tonight.

This Heinkel has been floating around for a while and I just decided to knock it on the head. As you will note 1 machine gun is missing from the starboard side of the fuselage. I also managed to lose the landing light inside the wing ( it was in place perfectly and I knocked it in )

Anyway here it is albeit shoddy but a 1/72 Italeri Heinkel He 111 H6

Top stuff mate ,Looks superbly done espically for 1/72! in particular the canopy

 

[Heinz]

thanks Daniel I will though admit I cheated on the canopy a bit

Its painted masking tape that I then sealed the edges with white glue.

Cheers mate.

 

[rochie]

good stuff Heinz, i did the same thing with the landing light on my academy tempest !!!!

 

[Airframes]

Good work Alex. That aint cheating with the masking tape, it's a recognized method, and a very good one too! Many people have forgotten all about it in these days of pre-cut masks and such like. Tsch, tsch! That's not modelling, it's following instructions for pre-made pieces!
Good to see you using your OWN skills mate!

 

[Matt308]

Nicely done. I gotta buy me another He-111. I love that bird.

 

[Catch22]
