What's on The Workbench

[N4521U]

Ahhh Mr. Bill your a marvel at the hobby you are!

I just hope someone from Large Scale Models doesn't see this!
They'll look at what I do and the "WT......"?

 

[A4K]

I could use some.Especially the numbers

Do you have a specific one in mind? I have number and letter sheets for fuselage and underwing serials, plus roundels and fin flashes. Just need to know which kite you're doing to know which type to send.

1:72 ClearProp XA2a-1 Skyshark
1:48 Eduard F4F-3 wildcat
1:32 Kotare Spitfire Mk.Ia

 

[SaparotRob]

Very, very nice stuff, the aviator. The Skyshark is a model I rarely see.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

The 1/32 Spitfire looks interesting and I like the paneling marks on the Wildcat.

 

[Capt. Vick]

How was that clear prop kit?

 

[A4K]

Great models mate. What happened to the Spitfire markings - too thin?

 

[Wurger]

 

[Donivanp]

Very nice especially like the sky shark

 

[the aviator]

How was that clear prop kit?

Complex, good fit and detail. Lots of P.E. Decal preformed well, but have small, barely visible cracks in the white areas. Fiddly in places, ie, landing gear, overall I enjoyed the build

paint pulled up during masking. Those marking are paint. I'm in the process of fixing them. Thank you for your kind words. Great kit, IMHO

 

[A4K]

That is some very impressive painting then, well done!

 

[Viking1066]

Great work!!

Not looking for anything specific other than used in Canada for training

Working on 2 different Red Albatros kits both Eduard 1/48 but 2 different versions.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Both looking good and I like the lozenge on the upper wing of second pic.

I missed that the first time I looked. Had to go back and zoom in. Very cool

So far so good, Godwin Brumowski's aircraft was painted all red then for some reason he made some guy hand paint the ochre colored sworls over the entire aircraft including the bottom! I was able to get 3 sheets of the Pheon decals with the ochre sworls, hopefully that will be enough to cover everything! Lots of setting solution needed as even with a gloss red the ribs are a little too high in profile, I should have lightly sanded them down but am proceeding with micro sol and micro set.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

I wish you luck and I can see lots of micro sol needed to mould the decals down.
