Hi Eddie,
I cannot waiting for the rest of pic.I have some Halinski paper kits on my shelves but I don't know when I start them at all.They are really high detailed.And also I think that its assembling can be impossible.

But if you are enough patient everything is possible.As far as a scalpel is concerned,it is good you bought it.Using it with a metal ruler all straight lines are direct and accurate.Besides making holes become easiest.Good luck with the model.If you have questions feel free to ask.

BTW I'm glad you like my P-51.

tx will do so

I was lucky with The Halinski's, a friend went to europe and bought me alot of their kits

Yes,Halinski's models are currently the best ones in Poland.Although there are some others that offer also great quality paper kits

to be honest, if been battling last night with the air intake of the p40, where you have to fold the 3 pieces to accomodate the 3 sections, i attached a pic from net just to show you

This is a standad of Halinski's models.Wait for other parts assembling.Patience,patience and once more patience.

Did you assemble that?

grob · 10-18-2007, 01:46 PM

eddie_brunette · 10-19-2007, 03:10 AM

ok....here further development on my first try with paper models.

must state that I absolutely love the way these kits assemble, like building the real thing, not assembling to halves to each other like plastic ones

this the latest. started to use the scalpel now, but more practice is required

luckily I scanned the kit to make sure I don't destroy the original.

I tried the "cockpit skin" last night, but the alignment was a little out, so i had to rip it off again

you can see the remains where I ripped it of the body

I decided to do the whole skeleton before skinning to make sure the alignment stays the same.

You'll probably start to recognize the shape of the P40.

please any suggestions please feel free, as you can see my cutting skills still sucks, but I'm a firm believer in trying

aahhhh and tomorrow i'll buy the metal ruler for sure!!!

Wurger · 10-19-2007, 07:34 AM

Hallo Eddie,
The metal ruler will come in handy for sure.The progress in the model is visible. But could you tell me what kind of a glue you use?

Screaming Eagle · 10-20-2007, 03:10 AM
