First windshield vacform test is promising
-
I see a lot of chatter about the price. I myself think it's fair though if you see the details you get.
-
Saw this at Telford. Great looking plane.
-
Good man!
-
So far i can say i’m really impressed woth the fit and detail. Really diving deep in my references and i only spotted a few minor things: Fire extinguisher could be better shape and detail wise. The props are off. I drew a new set. Wing sack is too prominent. The wings were plywood and only showed a little sack. There is a venturi tube missing on the top of the left engine. That’s it for now

this exceeds my skills. I need grimy weathering to hide my fudge ups!
-
So... I thought about it and I might... 3d draw a turret without framing and 3d print the separate framing. This is tricky because the framing should be really thin and the fit should be flawless. I did a quick trial in 3d and I think it might work. Not sure yet. I think the vac form I pulled with the framing incorporated will do nice as well. Masking it is doable too. We'll see.

Started painting the figures. 6 in total m. First time using vallejo water based paint.
-
I thought about that. I'd need to draw a new version with just the bottom ring and the opening. Then add the framing later with strips of tape I guess. I would not want this ribs to overlap, making it more work than I initially thought. I think masking this turret in the end is easier. Maybe...
-
I just carefully pulled and twisted :))
-
Also drew up the Lofte bombsight. The MDC one was toast and looked like a piece of chewing gum. Also drew the upper access panel to the bomb aimer. And made the glass by vacforming it.
-
Since i lost all my previous data, i’ll add some older in progress shots as i go along. Here’s the measurement apparatus as seen in the read cockpit of this machine. I drew this up in Cinema4D.
-
Speeding things up now. Matt coat and panel line washes are on. Now adding scratches and patches. Also adding the groundwork and grass.
-
Lovely! Following this
-
Sweet!

Some succesful tests with the vacformed gun turret
-
Perfect
-
so cool. I'm building this kit as a Brit Tomahawk II with photo recon conversion. For this I also bought the Master Barrels, but then the .303 brit Brownings.
-
After a few failed attempts I'm finally getting close to a proper prop. The bottom one you see is just a template I made for the shape, taken of a photo and drawing.

This is maybe my best model. Or: the one I'm most proud of. It started of as a Revell Fw190A, which I transformed to a A8 by 3D printing the cannon bulges and ejection chutes under the wing. I was gifted a piece of aileron with the paint and some fabric still on, recovered around 1980 in Vreeland. Close to Schiphol Airport in The Netherlands during Operation Bodenplatte. Heinz-Jürgen Kilian of 3./JG1 was hit by friendly AA and managed to bail out. His chute did not open, or opened too late and he landed hard on a frozen stream and died. The base was made of laser but and bend aluminium sprayed RLM66. The trim gauge and fuse button are from a Fw190A and can both be found in the left console. I used 1ManArmy masks, all the Eduard sets I could find, etc..

Yes it is, but I helpend Ai by also uploading a vague photo I found of the rear. You really need to help Ai a lot.
