It is very hard to pick something up.In many cases there is a small local firm which provides not expensive and good quality airbrushes in every country.You have to look around for this more carefully.I've used the Russian one I bought at the local market-place some ears ago.There wasn't even its name.It is made all of metal so the cleaning of this isn't a problem.The airbrush set consists of the airbrush,three nozzeles of the different diameter, that can be used interchangebly,a small tank for paint and a spare steel needle (a pin).There is a possibility of regulating the quantity of paint and trace.The main problem with it is no possibility to stop air,so the airpack cannot be used( a compressor only)The airbrush costed about 25 zlotych that was about 9$.I've heard the Russians sold the airbrushes at Warsaw market-places for about 100 zl.( today 1$=3.20 zl ).

Country:  | 25 zlotych is 181 korun (see the courses: 9,00 USD = 198,93 CZK, btw)...
I don't believethe AB's are that cheap here, but I'll ask at my local shop (I hope I'll be able to go there tomorrow for the putty...  ) | |

Country:  | Sorry for not responding earlier, I just moved into college, and just got hold of a computer lab computer to respond to all my online things. I would love to use an airbrush, but definately not make one. The most I have done in the way of making things is obviously, models, and less obvious, destroying and fiddling with my old NES and games. | |

Country: | Here is progress report of my mini (1/144) F-86 Sabre... It is my first 1/144 since I was...  11?  Sorry for so bad blurry picture, I currently have no better camera at me. I gave her a nice silver coat yesterady, so it just needs to have the cockpit finished, landing gear and some other stuff and I'm going to give her a nice set of USAF decals!

Country: |  Refurbishing a Junkers Ju 88!
Yeah, no problem, I'm quite busy too these days. Still found some time to work on samoloty. 
Thanks.
____________
I started with models when I was around 10-11 years old. It wasn't scale-building but rather a snap-together-drown-in-glue'n'color... I did many models, even dioramas, but all looked more like a Dalí sculpture then scale models... I started with modelling again some 2,5 years ago, but I didn't get on time so so far, there is around 5 finished models in my current mini-depot.
Remember the "Post Your models 1" thread here? I started that one with a few pictures of beslubber pieces. One of them was a Junker Ju 88 in 1/72 Scale - http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/off...dels-1457.html     Junkers Ju 88 A-4, Revell 1/72
Maybe I'm a megalomaniac - I keep starting new and new models. Hmm, maybe it's just the natural progress of an avid builder.
Today I took this model, sat down and like a robot, my hands started to refurbish this crap. I took of the props, engine cowlings, wheeldoor, cabin... Then also the wings and the parts of the front fuselage/nose.
There were some big moulds and **** that I had and still have to sand off. then I'll buy a new cabin and accessories (mybe new detailed engines?) and then I'll try to restore it into a winterized aircraft. Might be an interesting project. (Wow, this is the first time I gave myslef a "thumb-up" smiley!
Check out the pics: | |
