Hey Phil, this seems to be an interesting project. I won the mosquito kit once in a lotery but sold it. It looks great in unassambled condition - a lot of details, especially in the cockpit. I hope it fits like it looks.

Great paint job at the truck and figures

Good luck with this project Phil, it looks promising already !

Very nice truck.

it's just pitty you've chosen the wrong mosquito, there's big troubles with this revell one, wheelspars are too short
5 July 2012, 20:46
Kim Branders
looking forward to it, looks great.

Philip De Keyser
Thanks guys for your commence,
@Zimmy, thanks for the info about the wheelspars, I've have this kit in my stash and it's a pitty not used it 😉 the kit have nice details and a lot of details in the cockpit, I'll try to make the best of it,

Hey Phil! A dio is a good idea! You made a promising start, go on babe!
6 July 2012, 07:19
Holger Kranich
What scenery do you like to create? Pilots are heading to the plane to get airborne?
6 July 2012, 12:34
Philip De Keyser
Hi Holger, the Idea was that they returns from a raid, but i just don't no yet, all the ideas are welcome 😉 and if somewone have nice pictures plaese post them on scalemates, greetz Phil

stefan natus
So so a secret project 🙂 maybe a slight battle damage at the mosquito.
6 July 2012, 15:57
Christian Lehmann
This is what I would also suggest. The crew ( maybe wounded), returning from a mission with a dammaged plane. The challange would be that the mossie was built of wood 🙂

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Hi Phil
I am sure you will make a great dio.I looked at your Spitfire,its a superb one!
6 July 2012, 17:43
Philip De Keyser
Thanks guys for the ideas and the nice commence, a dammaged plane, I like it, I've got a little resurched to do 😉
@Markus, thanks for looking at Johny Johnson Spitfire, that was a lot of fun to built it, I'll hope that this one is just the same

Hi Phillip,
the Mossie is a wonderful kit!
I`ve built for 2 times the Mossie ( Nightfighter and the Bomber) from Tamiya and let me tell you, there are no significant assembling problems!
Only the assembling of the wing tips to the main wings is a little bit tricky. Don`t go the way of the construction. Glue the tips separate to the wing half's so you won`t be surprised!
The Austin is pretty well painted!
Wish you a steady hand and a lot of fun!

This evening is the rear fuselage with the tail wheel on the agenda, slowly it comes together, friday evening begins the holiday for three weeks, I'll hope I can do some modelling the next weeks, greetz Phil
Thanks for your nice words mates 😉

There is progress on the Mosquito, here are some pictures from it, greetz Phil
16 July 2012, 20:37
Christian Lehmann
Hi Phil, you damaged the rudder. Interesting method to build up the canvas.
17 July 2012, 05:58
Christian Lehmann
This is somenthing that caused me headache for my Bf 109. I decided to do it with aluminium foil which will be perforated after painting the model.
17 July 2012, 06:00
stefan natus
Nice progress phil,almost ready for paint........
17 July 2012, 06:49

Phil, i must say, i love your work on the pit! It looks busy!

Lovely work
21 July 2012, 07:23

Here are some new pictures from the Mossy with some color on, next will be a claer cote and the decals, then I can started with the chipping and finisch the small parts like spinners and wheels wheeldoors,

Looks promising! Good job, Philip! Looking forward to your progress!

Thanks Frank for our nice comments, greetz Phil

Christian Lehmann
Hi Phil., it seems that the left landing gear had a breakdown 🙂 because the right gear is still visible and the left not. Also the propeller blades on the left are damaged 🙂 And the propeller on the left still run during touch down.
22 July 2012, 18:04
Christian Lehmann
Nice built
22 July 2012, 18:05
Philip De Keyser
Thanks Christian and yes you are right, left landing gear breakdown and spinner damaged,
How is it with your project? is there any progress 😉
Greetz Phil
22 July 2012, 20:43
Christian Lehmann
There is no progress yet. I am a little bit exhausted from work and started vacation now. I am not sure if I will get straight forewaerd with this project. I found a 120 mm figure that I get 15 years ago as a birthday gift. This is more a paint job but will allow me to practice my painting skills. Maybe I will proceed with this and put the 109 on hold. For the 109 is a lot of work to do besides building the model. For example tho get clear of the wing structure etc. I have to do some sketches first.
22 July 2012, 20:51
stefan natus
Great progress phil,how you gone do the chipping?
23 July 2012, 07:11
Philip De Keyser
@Stefan, the nose section and the engines are not from wood, even the small wing elivators are not from wood, that plaeses need a little bit of chipping, the chipping wil be done with a little peece of a spons, but first the decals, there are almost done, greetz Phil
23 July 2012, 09:38
Chris W
I really like how you do your cockpits! I am at a level where I can do the shading and the highlights but yours seem to have that realistic lived in look to them. Most go over the top with chipping, etc - you hold off at just the right amount. Thanks for showing!
23 July 2012, 11:59
Holger Kranich
Hi Phil!
Its coming along very nice! What colour have you used to prime the undersides?
23 July 2012, 12:02
Philip De Keyser
Thanks C W and Holger for looking and your nice comments
@Holger, I've used the enamels colors 302 from Revell for the basic color and than the 9 from Revell for lightning them up,
23 July 2012, 15:13
Holger Kranich
Wow, Phil! It looks like a special car lacquer with metaleffects!!!

25 July 2012, 13:57
Philip De Keyser

@Steve, I have something in my mind, but how it will look when it's finished that depence on my pre-bill of the scenery, first I have go to the store for a second vehicle
Greetz Phil

Wilfried Bogaerts

Impressive Phil, and as Holly already pointed out, what a building pace you have ! I'm looking forward for the finished dio...

Are you working with sub-contractors ? 😉

25 July 2012, 16:13
stefan natus
Cant wait to see the scenery,what do you have in mind?
25 July 2012, 17:49
Philip De Keyser
@Wilfried, no, no sub-contractors 😉 this is simple a lot of fun, thats holiday for me, the wife is still at work so ...... 😉
@ Stafan, the Mossy is some where at the fields, that's the idea, i just get today the Bronco Staghound AA to give the Mossy protection while the RAF people get to recovered the plain, there is still a lot of work!

Dirk Heyer
Hi Phillip,
I`m a bit jealous about your quick and perfect results!
Your battered Mossie reminds me to " Les petits hommes from Seron in the 70`s. There is a story called Mosquito 417 with also a battered Mossie!
Now I`ve realised that you have chosen the difficult Revell modell and not the Tamiya. Sry for my first posting here.
The lucky return of 333 is well painted and as I indicated earlier, your personal trademark is obviously! A very subtle paintjob, nice weathering effects and an amazing colour choice.

Thanks my friends for the nice comments, this meens really a lot for me, I love this side, I have never reed a negatief reaction on this side, every one is repected on his level of modelling, that's what this side makes great and plaesures
@Dirk, your serults are better then mine and even quick as mine 😉 don't be jaelous, I'm shore when you bring out your next finished project that I am jaelous 🙂 thanks for the nice words my friend
Greetz speedy Phil Gonzales 😉

No time to write.. Need to watch your wonderful progress, Phil!
26 July 2012, 08:01
Philip De Keyser
Hi guys, I started with the base, these are a few pix from the pre-setting of the scenery, this will be the idea of my dio, there will be a second vehicle on the base, the Staghound AA from Bronco, this will be placed on the right side from the Mossi, there is still a lot of work but there is alreaddy a lot of work don, I love holidays, greetz Phil 😉
29 July 2012, 13:15

Hello Philip, i think that is going to be very good when finished, probably you are still working on the Mosquito, because i dont see the lights on the wings, dont forget to put them

Would you recommend this kit??
29 August 2012, 19:25
Acki
Hi Philip, great models on a great dio. I love it!
29 August 2012, 19:59
Philip De Keyser
@Dirk, Yes Dirk it's a beauty this one, this is a great kit to build with a lot of details on it, there's even a small part of foto etch, the kit build easy but you must have pacient and take your time for it, there are a lot of little pieces, but still I recommended this kit, it's the best on his scale,

Thanks Frank, Markus and Acki for looking at it and for the nice comments,

looking forward to see this at our show in december

ps: wist je dat Tamiya ernaast zat, dit type Tilly heeft nooit gediend bij de RAF 🙂
30 August 2012, 13:25
Philip De Keyser
@Jan, Dag Jan, neen dat wist ik niet dat de Tilly nooit heeft gediend bij de RAF, veranderen doe ik het toch niet meer 😉 weer iets bijgeleerd, groetjes Philip
30 August 2012, 14:20
Dirk Heyer
@Jan
Could you tell me the source of your informations about the Tilly?
Why did Tamiya provide a decal sheme for RAF service if it is not fact?
That`s really a stupid error from Tamiya.

Staghound build is finished, I've put some figures on it to make it a little bit more attractive, now I can begin with the paintjob, greetz Phil
30 August 2012, 20:10
Christian Lehmann
Looks nice. Who is the manufacturer of the figures? Are they part of the staghound kit?
30 August 2012, 20:12
Philip De Keyser
Hi Christian, they are no part of the staghound, it is a set Englisch figures from tamiya, they look nice and with a little surgery comes everething nice together, greetz Phil
30 August 2012, 21:40
Jan Goormans
Philip, keep the Tilly on the dio , it looks great

some additional info about the Tilly
first take a look at the site in the respons from Frank, that's all basic info you want
seems that the Tilly was produced in severally factory's, resulting in slightly different versions, and the version Tamiya boxed never served with the RAF
But just after the war a RAF movie was made with that type of Tilly, so you could find some old pics (from the movie) with Mosquito's and the Tilly on an airfield
Dug this because i have the 1/35 Tilly that i also wanted to use in combination with a Tamiya Spitfire in 1/32,

Hi Phil looks very bright. Is this real or a result of taking the phot?
1 September 2012, 20:17

Hi Christian, the real it's darker, these is the result of taking the photo, but anyway get its darker when she gets her filters, greetz Phil

Vitor Costa
Hi Philip that is coming really nice, i look forward to see it finished. that little vehicle is something amazing, very well done.
2 September 2012, 10:49
Philip De Keyser
Hi Vitor, I've just give the staghound a thin layer of Olive Drab from Hobby color, mix it 80% thinner and 20% of olive drab, this will bring the colors nicely together and makes the colors softer, pix will folow later, greetz Phil
2 September 2012, 10:57
Philip De Keyser
Here can you see the result with a thin layer of Olive Drab, afther that I have give it a clear cote from revell, now you can see that the colors are much darker and smooth nicely together, ahther dry time will I apply the decals en seal these, greetz Phil
2 September 2012, 12:17
Christian Lehmann
Wow, what a difference. Looks much better on the photo now.
2 September 2012, 14:00
stefan natus
Nice progress phil,is the lifecolor paint any good?
2 September 2012, 15:54
Philip De Keyser
Hi Stefan, the lifecolor is not that bad, the color nuances on this set is beautiful but you must build it up in several layers of coat, I wanted to try this new set of olivedrab and I'm sedisfited, but mine opinion is that the Mr color paint is mutch better, but hé that's mine opinion 😉

After the figures must it come all together on the Dio and if there are open spaces than I have a brainstorm to fil these up, so there is still a lot to do,
Greetz Phil and see you tommorow 😉
