NeulingPerfect work! So many interesting details to see, all of them taken care of with great attention. Great modelling!
22 August 2022, 10:09
Maciej T.Thanks Neuling 😄
As an author, however, I can see some mistakes - fortunately I don't have to point them out myself 😉 😛
22 August 2022, 10:31
NeulingI didn´t notice any mistake whatsoever ....... keep on making mistakes, Maciej, they´r a joy to watch!
23 August 2022, 07:45
Michael KohlI think 9 pics are sufficient- for each of the figures. And then a couple of dozends more for the rest. Hey, what happened? You ran out of battery power? 😉
The build? Absolutely amazing - from what I can judge from the insufficient amoung of pictures. 😉
23 August 2022, 14:40
Maciej T.Gentlemen, you put me to shame.... Thank you very, very much 😄
Michael: it seems to me that in the video you can see virtually everything (including the interior after the tower is raised).... But if you want I can take some more close-up photos.... Just from which side? 😉 😄
23 August 2022, 15:19
Rui SWell, it's a Maciej T. Work what to expect? An Excellent Dio of course 👍
If I'm allowed, just the shiny uniform's... 🤔
23 August 2022, 15:46
Maciej T.Yes, these uniforms in normal daylight are OK. This effect of "shining" can be seen only under the influence of photographic lamps (softbox)... Although the figures are finely powdered with satin varnish....
23 August 2022, 16:29
Rui SLike said Maciej, Great work and Dio, I would go with mate varnish on clothes 😉

Tom B.Gorgeous work mate 👍 Remembering the Panther´s realiability issues and hard to access transmission, this scene must have been a common "event" for tank repair crews!

All the tiny stencils and completing the national insignia was quite a demanding task.

gorbyInteresting!
Incidentally, as you keep producing some very interesting subjects I've just had a look at your stash - wow fantastic range of kits, I'm green with envy. 😄
28 June, 09:53
Bruce HuxtableAnother space-saver! Wondering what interesting livery will bring this little gem to life? 🙂
29 June, 18:35
Robert PodkońskiFeel warmly welcomed AJMM and Bruce! @Bruce - I like most the most 'exotic' livery - the Manchurian one. @AJMM - I am a bit concerned about the main undercarriage legs, they are very thin.
29 June, 20:00
Robert PodkońskiFeel warmly welcomed, Spanjaard and Neil 🙂 I am back from vacations, so there will be next updates soon 😉
15 July, 06:22
MarkoWell, I'd like to look at that. Worthwhile role model, that will be a nice model👍
18 July, 17:25
Zbynek HonzikTaking a seat, Robert!
What a tiny little plane it will be... Fingers crossed and looking forward to the result! 👍
20 July, 06:33
Ludvík KružíkAnother great little project is born here 🙂
Of course I can't miss it. 👀
7 August, 09:00
AJMMBravo. Brilliantly well done and great to see one of these finished. You've done a super job.
26 August, 08:27
Łukasz GlińskiNiiice 👍 you also did a Bird Dog in 144 without losing your sight? Respect!
26 August, 08:54
Robert PodkońskiThank you all: Spanjaard, Gorby, and Łukasz. Much appreciated 🙂 @Łukasz - I built this Cessna quite a long ago... and it is quite a simple kit. I find it useful as a "size comparison" item to my 1/144th builds 😉
26 August, 10:00
Robin (WhiteGlint)Great work Robert! 👍 These tiny models sure are something.
I am still curious how the J-20 fits into this. Is this project connected to an airshow?
29 August, 11:34
Robert PodkońskiThanks, Robin, much appreciated. (Firstly, Manchuria is now a part of China, so it is probable that J-20's are flying over Manchuria as well 😉. Secondly, both models are in 1/144th scale, and I find it interesting to compare the dimensions.)

Robert PodkońskiMake yourself comfortable, István and J35J. This will be surely a long party... 😉
27 August, 13:25
Robert PodkońskiBelieve me, István, A-model kits are much more modeller-friendly than Mach 2... Take a look here, for example: modelingmadness.com/..korean/us/hammx2.htm
27 August, 15:20
MarkoThat's something to be excited about. Mach2 kits don't have the reputation of being shaking kits. 👍
27 August, 15:50
MartinAs I said on the project, I wish you luck with this, it is something you seldom see, but it looks cool in the end. It is quite a long time ago when I did mine - al the best!
and, so far it does not look that bad for a mach2
27 August, 15:57
Robert PodkońskiWhat an audience I have... I feel a bit under pressure now 😉 @Martin - you're right, at least the polistyrene seems to be of a good quality.
27 August, 17:23
Mid FranconianExtra like for the striking project title 😂! I expected an old KP kit first…
27 August, 20:56
Bruce HuxtableSoo many seams.... Watching this tutorial for sure 😉. OMG, Robert, that's quite a critique of MACH, kits.... Good Luck!
27 August, 21:11
Ben MIt's such a cool subject, I remember seeing it in my dads airplane books when I was young.
27 August, 21:42
Ludvík KružíkRobert, once again you have chosen a great topic. The French experimental jet powered Leduc aircraft looked really futuristic at the time of its creation.
I wish you strong nerves and a lot of fun building your model!
27 August, 22:30
Robert PodkońskiNow I feel even more pressure 😉 ... @Bruce - I know what I am talking about, I have completed a few models from both producers already 😉 @Ludvik - I was lucky enough to see both Leduc 010 and 022 in Le Bourget museum and they still look futuristic imho 🙂
28 August, 05:35
Ludvík KružíkHe certainly wouldn't be a disgrace as a space fighter in Star Wars. 😄
The photos of the kit parts show that you really have a lot of work ahead of you.
28 August, 08:16
NeilHi Robert, Haha! 'da Putty Party'... Love it!... Following with great interest 🙂
28 August, 10:29
Robert PodkońskiStill, the plastic is workable, Ben. As far as I have checked: it can be filed, filled, and glued... So, there is hope... 😄
28 August, 13:40
Ben MI looked in the stash and I have a mach2 kit I bought when I was young and foolish.
28 August, 13:45
Robert PodkońskiI have five, not counting this one... Hmm...the testimony of what kind of mental disease it is? Nothwithstanding, only Mach 2 offered models of some exotic planes, like X-24.
28 August, 14:19
gorbyI wish you luck Robert. Your going to need it (and probably a stiff drink or four). 😉
Was the kit mould made from soap? 😄
28 August, 15:14
Robert PodkońskiThanks for your encouraging words, Gorby! ... It seems probable, taking into account that in some Mach 2 kits the material itself is "soapy"... 😄
28 August, 16:08
Alex KA French prototype and a Mach 2 kit? Can't miss that... I see I'm late but a seat way back in the gallery must be still available...
28 August, 16:34
Robert PodkońskiFeel warmly welcomed, Alex, Jennifer and M0rce! I am glad to have you all aboard. @Alex - I have started this album yesterday, so you're not late 🙂
28 August, 17:32
Gary VictoryThat's nasty....! Good luck with your build. Robert. Take your time and enjoy it.
29 August, 07:45
Roland SachsenhoferYou are a brave man! I will definitely be watching this with great interest - great!
29 August, 07:46
Łukasz GlińskiWhat a party I've been missing, till now. Wishing you lots of perseverance, mate 👍
PS. Are you going to add the Broplan's Languedoc later on? 😄
[img1]
30 August, 10:54
Robert PodkońskiWelcome, Łukasz. I've been waiting for you 🙂 I don't think so - not enough space, time, skills, and I am not sure if the kit is still available
Sud-Est S.E. 161 Languedoc (Broplan MS-146, 1:72)
BTW. On the photo you posted, there is the earlier of Monsieur Leduc's creations - model 010.

Łukasz GlińskiGot one of them from a shop in the Netherlands in unpronounceably named village near Schiphol, not sure they still offer them
Fingers crossed for your Mach2 endeavour 👍
30 August, 14:17
Robert PodkońskiLucky you! So, perhaps you will assembly the Languedoc...and then we will join your forces, Łukasz? 😉
30 August, 17:11
Łukasz GlińskiNot sure, mine has to be Polish marked 😛 If I ever come to assemble it 😄
30 August, 18:08
Juergen KlinglhuberHA-- I had done this once (Leduc 021 | Album by jott (1:72)) and....OMG. Therefore I like the head-line of your album and... I done know how to put it: good that you take it with humor 😉
6 September, 20:00
Ludvík KružíkRobert, you're handling this brilliantly. I wish you continued success with the construction...
... and that your supply of putty and sandpaper lasts. 😄
7 September, 16:28
Robert PodkońskiThank you, Ludviku... perhaps some substantial amount of thick CA glue as well...
7 September, 20:15
Bruce HuxtableLiking the internal modifications, very neat fine work. Each part is a kit in itself, with which to aim for perfection.... 🙂 👍
7 September, 21:23
Dave FlittonExcellent work on this kit. I hear Mach 2 kits are a huge let down, yet they are the only game around for certain subjects.
17 September, 19:00
Ludvík KružíkThe moldings are really terrible. The last time I saw such a horror was on an old Russian Il-2 in 1:48 scale. Plus the kit lacked any surface detail and the parts didn't fit together at all. I eventually built it, but the result was so bad that I left the plane for my sons to play with.
Compared to the Russian kit, this model is significantly better. Although it is far from finished. It will still need a lot of work, but the current state of the model suggests it can be done.
Fingers crossed. 👍 😉
2 October, 16:14
Robert PodkońskiThanks for your encouragement, Ludviku! I have not much spare time now and that's why the progress is so slow. Nevertheless, the only problems I have encountered so far, are molding imperfections...that can be sorted off quite easily. In general, fit of the parts is surprisingly good.
I am also encouraged by the fact that both Martin, and Juergen have successfully finished this kit:

Chris ParsonsOh ya!
Built a couple of Broplan vac kits, a real challenge but great for the feeling of overcoming a challenge and creative accomplishment
11 July, 23:27
Thomas KolbOMG, what a challenge! 🙂 Those panel lines look quite uneven, will you try to rescribe them or just take them for what they are? In any way, I am super curious how these sheets of plastic can be turned into a model, so I will watch with interest!
12 July, 02:31
DuperScaleWelcome mates, the panellines are aweful but the material is so thin, i'm scarred that i cut right trough it when i try to rescribe them.
12 July, 06:24
NicolasFollowing. Got my first vacu kit this weekend. I hope I can learn something here.
16 July, 14:48
Chris ParsonsHi DuperScale, I built a couple of Broplan vac ATR kits, converting one 72 500 to a 42 300. A few pics of the work in my "albums" if you're interested in the kind of model you can achieve from a Broplan kit with a bit of work…sweat and tears, foul language, alcohol and time….
16 July, 23:24
TreehuggerDuperScale, how about scribing into a layer of primer paint?
This way, scribing should be a lot easier afaik, scribing into the primer layer of paing, and not plastic.
This guy on youtube did this, on regular plastic models though.
20 August, 05:21
TreehuggerAs for the clear parts, I wonder if it could be done this way
1) Cut out a square/rectangle shape, removing the oval form from windows. The larger the hole the better, to create some extra space around the old window shape. Enough space to work with putty later on.
2) Glue in a flat thin strip of transparent styrene on inside of model.
3) Glue in a square/rectangle shape transparent styrene, outside the model, laminated with the existing strip of transparent styrene on inside, so double layered.
If keeping the new window parts larger than the old window shape it should be easier to use some putty after adding masking tape that have the shape of the old windows. The larger these new outer square/rectangle window shapes are, the easier it is to add putty to create a smooth surface, then hopefully the center part is clear enough, to mask off the final shape of the old window shape, before painting.
Afaik a common issue using Mikro Kristal Klear is that you can't sand the clear part afterwards, because the clear part is like rubber iirc. You can iirc easily remove this clear part though, just poke/pull it out. Unsure if there would be any residue left after removing the rubber like liquid clear stuff after it dries.
20 August, 05:25
TreehuggerAnother thing one could do with clear parts an idea:
1) Glue in a long strip of transparent styrene on inside of plane.
2) Add some kind of epoxy or something that can be sanded, without the epoxy damaging the underlying transparent styrene.
3) Idea is to use the liquid stuff to fill in the perfectly shaped holes for the windows, then sand the liquid stuff flush after it dries.
What won't work imo, is doing multiple rounds of adding liquids to create some goo that goes transparent. I think if you sand this stuff multiple times adding more liquid stuff, you get a flawed result I think. I tried something like that with gloss varnish, trying to build up a solid clear shape. Did not work as expected.
20 August, 05:35
TreehuggerIn this thread, and in photo #13, the guy apparently put tape outside, and poured clear resin on the inside to fill the window holes. Unsure if such resin will react and maybe eat up or warp any thin parts ala vacuum kits. I guess this can be tested with some scrap plastic if having some piece left over.

20 August, 07:35
Łukasz GlińskiThe UV transparent resin is usually sandable (to some degree), maybe that might help?
Similarly to Treehugger I'd reinforce it with a transparent styrene from the inside of the fuselage anyway.
Or you might leave the windows open and fill them with Kristal Klear after painting - this is what I did on my Jetstream, Avanti & Yak-40. But if you want to seal it with gloss varnish, remember to keep very thin layers (guess how I learned it 🙂).

DuperScaleHi, thanks for the input mates. I'm quite happy with the kristal clear on the small windows and i think i do it like Lukasz said. After everything is done i do the windows as the last step.
The windscreen window could work but i think i used little to much of the kristal clear.
20 August, 16:10
Mr DLike the cockpit..👍
Lots of work but doing a 👍 job... Be rewarding when done.
17 September, 20:48
J35JThe kit is coming together very good. You are skilled and brave!
Great to follow the journey to see the final result. 👍🏻
30 September, 19:28
DuperScaleThanks for the nice comments, from far away it looks good but the fit, lack of detail and scale problems are really annoying.😅
