Italeri 1\72 HS 129 B2

Post by Modelpro72 »

Hello all.

This little gem was a nice build with only a few fit issues. I wanted the winter battered look and I think I got it. Well a little.

As always, any comments and pointers are very welcome.

the HS 129 is one of my favourites, built the 1/48 scale one from revell many years ago.
yours looks great, the faded chippend winter camo turned out very convincing. i like it a lot :)

Yeah. It was the first time I had used that method.

Nice job with the hairspray. Turned out really well.
You really made it look wind worn.

I've never tried that my self, but I've only done a few pieces with a winter white wash.
I just saw a video that Hamilkar did, he has a neat little trick that I've seen him use with Humbrol Maskol.
Since I've never tried either method I don't know myself which one would be easier for your next trip down white wash lane, but Hamilkar's looks pertty easy.
I may give it a whirl with my next one.

Hairspray worked well on this mate, nice work!

HS129 is a bit of an odd looking thing, not sure I have ever seen a model of one before.

You make me sick!
