JohnLooking good, love the chipping. Specialized chipping fluid or hairspray? (I'm "frugal" and use the $1.99 bottle of hairspray, lol).
4 July, 18:06
AnthCheers. I normally use hairspray but using some chipping fluid that css as me with a rusting effects set for this.
I think hairspray is quicker and easier but maybe doesn't chip quite do well.
I'd be happy using either.
4 July, 19:32
JohnIt's all good. I have found that applying the hair spray with a brush is making chipping a little easier for me.
Is that rusting set the one from vallejo? I've been eyeing it at the local big box craft store and wondering if it's worth the money.
4 July, 22:36
AnthIt is the Vallejo set.
I used the full set on my T-55A images here

Maksim Kurmaz@Bernd The kit has a decent fit, only couple of places needed puttying. The wheels, landing gear and wells are well-detailed but the rest is not, especially wings and the tail section.

RAPHAEL SANTOSThank you. It is a nice kit from Eduard. I was afraid with the new decals but at the end I didn't peel them off and they look good.

Thomas KolbShaping up nicely! Let me join the spectator crowd! Even though I prefer the Swedish Air Force version myself. 😉

S MThis have progressed faster than my MikroMir kit, but they are nicely supporting each other.
6 April, 22:18
S MThanks Robert and Mr! Now the model is missing just the missiles and landing gears. Before that I want to make some silly photos of it.
9 June, 20:32
ClementI'm not a big on ficitional schemes but boy does the Draken looks good in sand/brown and you've aced the paint job!
15 June, 20:39
S MI staged some action photos that will take some time to edit. Next I could finish the model by making the landing gear.
15 June, 20:40
Greg BakerThis. is. AWESOME! I need to be personally informed of any and all AREA 88 builds.
19 June, 14:42
S MAll the action photos are not edited yet, but otherwise this model is now finished.
20 June, 21:49
S MI finished editing my action pictures. I'm not a professional graphic designer so it might show.

Roland SachsenhoferWith these pictures I am starting a project that I am deliberately building parallel to the Boeing 307 'Stratoliner': both aeroplanes are apparently based on the same concept and not only have identical designs, but also share components such as wings, landing gear and engines. The Academy kit has an excellent fit and a refreshing simplicity, so to speak: the interiors would be practically empty except for the simplest seats. So I borrowed a little from my etched parts box and fitted the metal seats with matching upholstery. It certainly looks better than originally! 🙂
31 May, 09:05
Roland SachsenhoferThe fuselage halves are now together - the accuracy of fit remains excellent...
1 June, 15:13
Roland SachsenhoferThank you mates!
The pictures are no longer up to date, but show an important step forward: all clear parts are masked!
5 June, 18:11
Roland SachsenhoferTo avoid giving the impression that nothing has happened: the first layer of Alclad 'White Aluminium' has already been applied over this black!
9 June, 09:32
Roland SachsenhoferNow the B-17B has its NMF dress and will not take it off: in the meantime I have sprayed a layer of gloss paint so that I can start applying the decals tomorrow.
23 June, 15:27
Roland SachsenhoferThat makes me very happy - thank you!
A few quick pictures of the current state: I tried to apply the decals yesterday, but the Academy material turned out to be extremely brittle. The beautiful decal marking in red-white-blue on the rudder was a complete self-destructior - and that to such a clear and impressive extent that I even wanted to take a photo of it, because it looked funny 🙂
Well, no big deal, I'll just spray this part myself. In general, the photos make it clear that the decals need to be repaired or even redone in some places.
25 June, 07:18
CuajeteMany times it is better to paint instead of using some decals. Luckily that has an easy solution, Roland. You do much more complicated arrangements than this and always have very good results. Cheer up!
25 June, 17:28
Roland SachsenhoferA few new pictures of the B-17B under construction: the tail is now in the characteristic red-white-blue colour scheme, now the phase begins in which the need for improvement and touch ups is recognised and the various small parts such as antennas, brake lines or the engines/cowling - well, here one can no longer speak of "small parts" due to the amount of etched parts. I can't wait to see how the clear parts have held up under the masking!
29 June, 19:28
Roland SachsenhoferDie B-17B ist gestern fertig geworden; ein den letzten Tagen ein wenig foto-faul überfalle ich Euch jetzt mit den Bildern der fertig gestellten "Flying Fortress" in der ersten in Serie gebauten Version!
Wenn man so will, kann man sagen, dass die B-17 ein fotogenes Flugzeug abgibt; dazu trägt auch das blinkende NMF bei.
Die meisten Panel-Strukturen wurden nur mit unterschiedlichen Alclad- Metalltönen geschaffen, das Academy Modell selbst zeigt relativ wenig Strukturen
Ich bin jedenfalls froh, dass die ganze Abkleberei gut gegangen ist und die Klarteile zum größten Teil auch nichts an ihrer Klarheit eingebüßt haben. Bei den Fotos kommt ab und an als Größenvergleich eine Pilotenfigur und wie schon bei vielen 1:72 Modellen als "runing gag" mein Motorrad....
Ich hoffe die Bilder gefallen Euch so, wie mir der kurzweilige Bau Spaß gemacht hat- jetzt auf zum "zivilen" Bruder der B-17, der Boeing 307 Stratoliner!

Łukasz GlińskiMy poor command of Tschürman tells me it's done - congrats, it looks very cool in this colourful NMF 👍

Lenny LiSurprisingly the tracks took me much longer to complete. The individual links were quite loose in fitting. They kept falling off in the process which is quite annoying. Otherwise everything was fine. Tried heavy handed in chipping and weathering this time. Hope you guys enjoy it!

BozzerBlimey Steph, that paint job drew me to it, while I was scrolling through the newsfeed! Excellent work, mate 👍
22 April, 02:28
Emanuele MatteucciI did a good job on this paintjob too, it's not easy and you did very well! I hope for you that the final assembly of your model is better than mine was. Because i trashed the entire car when i saw the gap between the main body and the under chassis. I tried my best to made them fit togheter but it looked like the pieces came from 2 different car models...Untill now the most disappointing model i tried to complete, I wish you the best for the remaining job, the subject is fantastic!
22 April, 13:18
Stéphane Jayet@George, light makes it appear lighter than reality but I think you are right and bit too moght
22 April, 17:32
Stéphane Jayet@Emanuele, I will cross fingers now not to have the same problem as you.
22 April, 17:33
BozzerDamn, you got me again!
This build is reaching EPIC status!
Excellent work, Steph 👍
