Looking great so far.

George Williams
The decals look really good.

MS K
Thanks George. As expected, the quality of Cartograf decals is top notch 🙂

Robin (WhiteGlint)
This looks great! Decals look like painted on.
I really should start sanding down the gloss coat/decals like you did. In your comment you've written that no polishing is necessary. Will you just apply snew gloss coat over top after cleaning it a bit more?

MS K
Thanks Robin.
Llivery of this car is matt 😉 the reason for sanding is that removing the step in the decal, even on a matte surface, creates a smoother curved surface.

Martin Oostrom
Lovin' it

Michael Kohl
Love to follow your car builds and learn.

Guy Rump
The next project will be this old tool Italeri Horsa glider. My first glider, so here's hoping it will be a good experience. 🙂

Robert Podkoński

Nicolas
I'm going to build this one too. Im watching with great interest.

J35J
I'm in!🙂

Guy Rump
Made a start today. First thing to do was decide if a MK.1 or Mk.2 was to be built. I've decided on the Mk.1 so I had to cut out the parts as shown in the photo. 🙂

Welcome along Robert, Nicolas & J35J, nice to have you with me. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Robert P, Neil, Chris & J35J. 👍

Many thanks mate for your interest and like Pietro DA. 👍

Neil Patrick
I built this about 20 years ago Guy as a gift for a WW2 Horsa pilot who was a friend of my wife's family. He'd flown Horsas into Normandy and Arnhem. He loved the model and it sat in his living room for the rest of his days. It's a nice kit as I recall.

Guy Rump
Invasion stripes are now on the wings. Next is to start painting the invasion stripes on the fuselage. 🙂

@ Neil, it is quite a nice kit considering its age. The fact that you gifted a Horsa model to an actual Horsa pilot veteran is something that must have been hugely gratifying. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Villiers DV, Sebastien C, Neil P & 2 other mates. 👍

Guy Rump
Fuselage painted Dark Earth, BS Dark Green and black including invasion stripes. Gap is for where the wings are added. 🙂

David
Nice upgrade to the interior on this kit Guillaume. The 1/48th Trumpeter kit has a few scale errors in it (if you choose to attempt to fix these... or not) There is a bit of detail on my build of this kit at: flypastrush.com/post..-s-m-79-ii-sparviero - Good luck with the build 🙂

Villiers de Vos
Booking my seat.

Vincent
This looks like a great project! Following for sure.

@David I'll make sure to read your article to see what modification I can do on my build.

Transall NG
Hello Guy,
You may try fishing wire "UNI-Caenis 20 Den Black" for your next antennas wire : it is like spandex, has some elasticity, and doesn't need to be stretched so mast doesn't bend.
It is also very convincing for 1/72 : i can't see it if i don't wear my glasses...
Fine work !

Guy Rump
Hi Transall NG, many thanks for your kind comment and tip for an improved method for antenna wire, I'll definitely be giving it a go in the near future! 👍

Monte
Very nice! I would like some of the multi-engine Japanese aircraft on my shelf, but I have a lot of things to build before that. How old were the Hasagawa decals you used here? At what age would you be concerned about using older Hasagawa decals?

Guillaume Blanchet
love it!

I saw the Red Arrows last year in Duxford. Great show. I'll have a look over your shoulder.

Guy Rump
I've made a start on the Hawk trainer. I've put weight in the nose so hopefully it won't be a tail sitter! Cockpit put together and inserted into aircraft. So far, so good. 🙂

Hi Guy 👋😃👍
Taking good shape now, has it all gone together ok so far..?? Tamiya are usually good?

Best of luck with next steps 👍👍

Guy Rump
Primer is now on! Next is the undercoat colour. 👍

Many thanks Mr D for your kind comment. It's fitted together really well as you'd expect. I'm experimenting with this one with a bit of weathering and chipping, hopefully it will turn out ok. 👍
