Eduard mig 21 1/48 hunagrian markings 2018-05-28_11-16-24 by tim ivatts, on Flickr

1/24 Tamiya (domino model) Escort RS cosworth 4x4 finished

Primed in Ultimate white primer, sprayed in Tamiya Ts-26 Decanted and airbrushed and Clear coated in MIPA 2k

Out the box bar the fabric seatbelts, decaled using a mixture of original tamiya and the supplied shunko decals, the shunko blue decals just wouldn't conform and were tearing, the 20 year old tamiya ones went down no problem.

WIP: Industria Mechanika 1/35 The Hornethopter.

My initial attempt at a paint scheme to loosely resembles a real Hornet failed, but after some great advice I had another go and came up with this using a mixture of AK Xtreme Bronze and Mr. Metal Color Brass and Dark Iron.
Still lots to do, but I think (hope) the colour scheme is now on the right track.

So finally completed my take on a P51-B from RAF Sawbrigdeworth in the Uk as apart of my entry to "Local Airfield" Group build in the Model Officers Mess. Of coarse used Ultimate primer and a mixture of the Mr Color RAF standard and Aircraft interior color sets. Finished with what else but Ultimate dark wash.
Decals are the correct for AG550 �XV-U� of No. 2 Squadron RAF based at Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, in flight over Cambridgeshire. AG550 is being flown by Wing Commander A J W Geddes, the squadron commander."
Off to get it on the actual airfield for it's final revel shots on Saturday. Thanks Dan for read my waffle. O 1.48 scale Accurate miniatures "Blue Nose" P51-b kit was used and adapted. Not sure on the wash line may need to re do that......!

Thanks for all the comments about the Harrier dio from last week guys. With that one out of the way I've managed to get back to my Tasca/Asuka 1/35 Panzer II Luchs. I started this back in January and haven't touched it since March but I've finally got it just about finished. The build was very straightforward, and I've added some AM resin track links from GTG in Australia which went together nicely and fit well. The whole thing was primed in Ultimate black, base coated in Vallejo Model Air dark yellow and the camo was brushed on using Vallejo Model Colours. I've given it a dark dirt wash and will probably leave it at that. Just the commander figure to go.

So here's my first try of showing something at the show...doing so only once in the forum for a completed work and another one for the current bomber SIG. The work I'm showing is my current building of Revell's JU 88 A-4 in 1/72 for the Scott's bomber Sig. I'm currently working on the cockpit and find the project much harder that I would have tought being a beginner, doing my first bomber ever, and tackling a lot of PE for the first time.

The cockpit was painted with Vallejo's RLM 66 that I tought was too dark for my liking. I then highlighted the raised areas with a neutral gray. Added a few scratches with a lighter gray and aluminium. Painted the details with different colors. I the gloss coated everything with aquagloss and added a dark wash in specific areas to enhance the contrast and add more depth. Added the PE and started last night working on the damn belts ! 1\72 scale is so small !!

Evening folks,

Work continues on the Marks and Spencer rebox of the Revell 1/72 Lancaster B Mk.I/III (1/3 Dan). Engines built and fettled into the inner nacelles and said nacelles stuck to fuselage. Huge gaps so fill/dry/wipe/sand and repeat all week with Squadron Green Putty (yes Dan I use that too). Other progress happened on the Mig but not too much as I realised I'd forgotten to prime and paint some important small bits

Thanks for looking.

Been working on this Eduard Fokker DR.1 for a while now for a buddy build in the local IPMS club. Not the most fun kit I've done, it has kind of killed my mojo so it has taken far longer then I had planned. I've built it pretty much OOB except for the rigging and a couple of small parts in the cockpit. Didn't want to do it in one of the normal paint schemes, so did it as a captured french one by making some masks and painting all the markings on it. Most of the paint used was Gunze and some oils and pigments used for the weathering.

I present the little red turd
