Nice one! Looks great!

Michael Kohl
You mastered all the challenges. Very well done.

Treehugger
Clear parts look very nice.
Q: Do you have any tips for cleaning up the paint work around window frames, or working with clear parts when painting around them?

Neuling
Looks very good. Something different. 👍👍

Maksim Kurmaz
@Treehugger There are no special magic about clear parts. As I don't use any additional coatings a-la Futura and use only water-based varnishes and paints, I can easily clean clear parts from paint with a toothpick because smooth parts do not hold paint very much. Also, masks are helpful but only from kabuki paper, everything else don't hold on curved surfaces.

Nice Ka-29. 👍

Finn
Well done indeed

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat!

Starting stronger since the A350 catastrophe. Cockpit sub assembled with the Eduard Detail set, painted and weathered. Couldnt take more pictures of the progress due to the details being so small 🥴🥴

Michael Kohl
Nice cockpit

Thomas Kolb
My goodness, that cockpit looks stunning! Are you sure it's not 48 scale?

Miguel Vaquero
Thanks Michael!

I could have hoped Thomas😅😅. It would have made my life way easier. Though the PE details helped a lot

CaptGPF
Agree with everyone - the cockpit looks great! Chipping at this scale is impressive

Nicolas
Nice progress so far.

Miguel Vaquero
Thanks guys, waiting to get free from work this week to star painting the fuselage and engine. Let's see how that turns out

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍

Miguel Vaquero
Engine almost done, except for the PE parts. I'm amazed of how it's all turning out tbh, didn't expect this great finish on such small parts

Mr D
Looking good 👍 the instrument's look good, did you get the clocks to sink in with softener ??
I have this one to build next after my lAR-80.
Thanks for uploading 😁👍

Miguel Vaquero
Hey MrD thanks! Well Im sorry I can't help you with that because I used the photo etched and plastic instrumentation provided by the kit from Eduard. Sure someone with more experience with Tamiya decals can help you with that in here.

Looking forward to see how yours turns out!

Mr D
Thanks 👍👍
May look into the PE kit.
Belts come out nice, do you glue PE direct to plastic or do you have to prep first ?
Coming on nicely 👌

Sergej I
Watching! Love the water bottle and even more smokes!

Christian
Thank you! The water bottle is from a Black Dog kit. I'm going to build one or two Ammo can's an add a M16 and a M60 as well. There will be two M134's for the doorgunner positions and two rocket pods as well.

Sergej I
Would prefer an M60 at the door, but minigun is also legit 👍 🙂
Great stuff, thanks for sharing, looking forward for more.

Christian
🙏 thank you so much Sergej!

Neil
Shaping up very nicely indeed. Will follow build 👍

Christian
Thank you Neil, I really appreciate that 💪

Dariusz Swiderski
Love the details! Already looking like an awesome build.

Christian
Thank you Dariusz, but there is absolute no progress since January 🥵
We're too busy by completing our new home.
But I can't wait to get back to modeling 🤩

Mr D
Hi Christian, looking good, bit more room for detail with a helicopter,
I just purchased the Zvezda mi-8 in 1:72.
I want to do a Chernobyl diorama in the winter, with Mi-8 dropping sand and boron on the damaged reactor.. they sell little 3d printed Chernobyl power stations on eBay.
Do you prepare the surface before gluing on PE ? Or just S-glue direct to plastic.?
Thanks for uploading... nice project 😀👍👍
