That sucks Antonio 
Could you try scratch building some replacements?? some brass tube, styrene stock and cement
Just saying, might be an opportunity to dive into that form of modelling which is quite fun
I could help you along if you like

Hi Scott, thanks for the feedback, yes is something I am considering, to scratch building the parts.
Has my abilities allow me the difficult part is part 14 ( the cannon holder part)
Thanks again for the support and yes I will take all the help I need.

If you can get some brass or aluminum tubing, those cannons could easily be re-madearilo76 wrote:Hi Scott, thanks for the feedback, yes is something I am considering, to scratch building the parts.

I lost a blaster for a X Wing on my floor so remade them all with aluminum tube
Happy to help, we could work it out with photos on here together

Thanks for the ideas, however the Part i am missing is not the actual guns. Actually it is a good idea to replace the guns with nice ones.Twokidsnosleep wrote:If you can get some brass or aluminum tubing, those cannons could easily be re-madearilo76 wrote:Hi Scott, thanks for the feedback, yes is something I am considering, to scratch building the parts.

Last Night update
happy Enough with the result of the mottling on this vertical stabiliser. the others are not really good unfortunately but better of any other i did in the past.
I have to do some correction and patching on the paint but so fare happy enough.

Update from last night work
During my decal session, I noticed that my pant job was sloppy in certain areas and I also i forgot to paint the top of the vertical surfaces of the Arado

Ok I tested the Oil Filter technique, I believe the photos they don't really show the the tonal variation but beleveme is ther
the lower part i will not use the oil technique but i will use the pastels, the reason is because i rushed and i put the landing gear up rather to wait
