Nice job. Looks great. I like how the supervisor decided that was time for a nap.

Thank you for your kind words 🫡
@Neuling-I unfortunately don't have your incredible talent for dio. I tried figurines a long time ago, without much results. So I stick to the vehicles that have always given me good times 😉
@Dave-for once the supervisor didn't fall asleep ON my equipment 😬

I've got four of the old ISD kits with fibreoptic lighting in my stash. I was thinking of doing one of them as Booster's ship.

Thanks! I'm interested to see how you trim the ends of the fibers. I'm still unsure how to do that..

Looking good, are you cutting the fibers with a sharp blade or nail clippers? I'd like to see a pic of how you do it. 😁

Hey thanks for showing how you're cutting the fibers. The cutter looks huge by comparison! Are you able to cut close enough? Maybe a sharp blade is not ideal, or would take forever to cut them all.. very interesting 🙂

The Errant Venture in scale, what a great idea. I love it because it is so well done. Only thing left is a green X-Wing in scale entering the hangar bay. 😉

That's a cool idea using a car sponge to hold the model. I think I will have to get one.

Regarding the Gnat, use white or pink (really!) as a base coat for yellow and it covers in fewer coats. Tamiya's yellow is probably better than most but it's still a difficult color to work with.

Hi Gorby 👋
Thanks 👍 l wanted a ZiL to put beside my Beriev ( got to painted today) The ZiL kits didn't look that great for the money, l like scratch building up little bits so got a cheap M-35 4D kit unfortunately they didn't do a ZiL.
it's ABS so all work in S-glue.

Hi Skyhiker 👋.
This was my first Album, it was made up before l knew how to sort individual projects ect.
I wasn't to sure if l would find the 4D M35 kit ... So just added it the old album.
I have organised some projects out of it. .. l do move the photos of the current build up to the front.
But it is a bit of a mess that album..🤣

Really nice model.... Presented in a clever way, be a shame to hide that engine work.
Like it 👍👍

Thank you! Unfortunately there is a bit of dust behind the clear part. The seam between the two halfs needs a lot of sanding and filler and I couldn't avoid it completly.

Very nicely done. I have the same kit in my stash, I'm in two minds about using the clear half or not

Great start and cockpit. I am a big fan of the Tamiya kits from this era. A very fun "canvas" to play with for detailing and painting. They still hold up compared to modern tooling if done right.

Thanks John and Mark. The cockpit is excellent just OOB, considering the year this tool was released. And the kit is still pretty inexpensive these days.

Mine did, when I applied the VMS Gloss on the Shiden, prior to decalling. Did lose a bit of subtly, but not much. Looking good so far Alberto.

Thanks Mark. It's tricky to guess when's the right time to stop the blending without loosing the pre-shading once the model is finished 😄

That's exactly my experience Alberto. The line between too much and not enough is very thin for sure. I've noticed that's especially true with darker colors like olive drabs or the IJN green like here. In those cases, some post shading with some lighter versions of the base color might be necessary to restore some of the tonal variation. Looking good 👍
