Hi
Lots of GT engines are started by pointing some kind of blower (R.N. 60s 70s stuff used a "Palouste", the spelling may be wrong) shoved into the intake to get them up to running speed. What did the German British GTs use? Nimbus (Wasp) and Gnome (Wessex 5) were electric and I can not remember what the engine in the Wessex 3 was but I think it was a cartridge start like the Whirlwind.
And for anyone who knows the Palouste as an electrical generator, yes, it was, but it was also an engine starter.
If this is the wrong thread I apologise and will move it but a diorama could use the authenticity.

Hi,

here I post some pics of my models. I am a not well-experienced modeller, as you can see... (They're all craps, hope that the projects will be better...)

Avia S-199 "Sakin"
101. Tayeset of Chel Ha'Avir (IAF), 1948
KoPro, scale 1/72
- camo scheme based on a book "Desert Eagles" by Leo Nomis, model hanging over my bed

Ki-43
Unknown unit
scheme based on a japanese manual, scale 1/72, hanging next to my WWII bookcase.

Tempest Mk.V of Pierre Clostermann, Revell 1/72, hanging in my bro's room. This one is an awful one...

P-51D "Shoo Shoo Baby", die cast model 1/144

...I got also a combat pair of Moran Bloch MB.152 of a Czechoslovak unit with Ju 88 but I have no batteries to take a pic. I'll do soon...

---

And now the projects:

Bristol Blenheim NF Mk.IF, No. 68 OTU, 1941, 1/72, Unknown Czech firm.
Needs 2nd spraying...

La-5 FN of Czechoslovak Independece Unit in USSR (you can see the orig. camo in top left corner), 1/72, KoPro.
Needs to add cabin, finishing the camo...

P-51B Mustang, Revell 1/72, still not sure which plane it's gonna be.

Airbus A-321 of Lufthansa, Revell 1/144


and still have about 30 untouched boxes with models of all kinds and all scales...

Post yours!


Cheers,
Pisis

Pisis, I like them- and you'll get better as you go. My first plane was wood. I put the right wing on the left and left wing on the right. After that, I read the directions! Never pick on your work... There's always someone willing to do it for you!*grin*- Karl

[Karl Sitts]

Les, First, thanks for the info! second, The tank was great!Can't believe the detail! Last,I have a folder of my art pen Ink and pencil, ofplanes, fantasy art -dragons, etc. How do I post them? Sorry to take so much of your time! -Karl

 

[Wurger]

Hi Karl,

You can upload these arts one by one in a new opened thread by you in Personal Gallery section for instance (I would suggest it).Or you can make the Rar or Zip archives file with the folder and then upload it in the mentioned new thread in the same way like a picture is uploaded.Everybody can open the file and see your arts or extract all these on own HDD to see them.

Well done Dan and Alex! Two great looking models there!
VERY impressive weathering on the Panther Dan.

Alex, hold fire with the engine painting - There's a great colour photo of the P&W in an F4U-4 on it's way to you after work!
