Country: | Yeah... Ditto on the wow what a great looking hotrod of an aircraft.
I haven't seen the Avaitor yet, I think it's time to keep an eye open for it.
Ok an update on my current Me262 build which has sort of put the Kate on hold for a short time.
These shots are after all the decals have been applied and the final gloss coat has been sprayed on.
Hope you like it... |

Country: | Hey, you posted two minutes after I just did!
It looks wonderful. The finish really shows off the smooth, smooth paint underneath. That's hard to get.
And Heinz, thanks. That's a lot of unfinished planes you got! But they look good, especially that TBF or Dauntless???

Country: | Hey thanks Soundbreaker Welch... couple of hours of careful airbrushing, freehand rather than masked, little bit more difficult when working in 1/72! | |

Country: | WOW Wayne you make it look easy!
She really looks superb However from your other work I expect no less from you!
Soundbreaker cheers mate and thats a Avenger in blue. Its a 1:72 Academy model bit of a rare one I think.
They will all be finished but dont expect anything until Dec when I'm school free! 
I'm really curious how my F 16 ends up never having built a modern fighter before

Country: | As most of you know, I just started a new rubber powered balsa/paper
model of a "Fairchild 24"...... whatever that is. This dude has a twelve
inch wingspan, and the fuselage is only 7 1/2 inches long. I've started
a new thread under Modelling called Fairchild 24. Come and check the
progress

Country:  | First time 1:48
Hello guys, after almost 10 years of not building any planes (concentrating on my HO railroad layout), I finaly came back to work. I used to model 1:72, but in my "rebirth" I decided to go 1:48. For my first model I chose the B-26 Marauder, my favorite mid size bomber. I was a little rusty, and experimented some new techniques aquired from the modelrailroading thing. Overall the result I think was OK, some things could have been donde better, others just didn't work. A B-25 Mitchell is waiting in his box. I hope it comes better with the experience aquired.
The weathering was emulated from real WWII color pics.   | |
