Thank you very much Timothy. It's on hold, because I thought in put some figurines in the tank and a horse rider or so in the trail next to it. I'm not very good in figurine faces... I've yet to try the oils on them😉

Hey I know the pain of not doing faces as well, but all we can do is learn from others and do what fits our liking

Agree. I Think the most important is practice... A lot, with new technics. I'm confident that with oils it's going to be better...

@ CaptGPF, Thank you for your comment. I hope you liked that Wicked 😄 😉 this Is an old project that is on hold as well as the photos. I hope to take better photos and complete it.
@ Mr James Thank you for your Nice words. I hope you also liked that Wicked 😄 The tree is a bonsai that had died, I cut some leaves because they were too big. If I remember correctly, I spread small wood shavings and other natural ones that I had in my vegetation stash on the ground.
Also, I thank the new likes. Apreciated

I'm very happy to say that I've returned to my mancave this weekend after a to long hiatus.
So to start I preferred a lighter job, although painting horses is not, in my opinion, easy.
Let's see what this will give...

Great job breathing life into an old kit, and I can't think of a better use for a dead bonsai tree! Looking forward to the finish!

@Alec, Thank you for your kind words and support. It is always great for me to receive such encouragement, even more so, when they come from a master modeler.
@Doubtingmango thx mate, I agree with you., but hey, I can only return to my bench on weekends, só it Will take some time to finish. For me the most important thing was getting my mojo back.
@Gorby, Thank you very much my friend, for your motivational words. They are always very important to me.
The horse will still improve, I hope. At least that's what I'll try to do without ruining all the work that has already been done 🤔 😉

I hate to be the first to inform you, that is not a tiger, nor is it an elephant, it is a horse.

@Landlubber Mike. Thank you for your comment. Glad you like this one
@Desert Marlin, I know whar you mean. I've been hesitating about highlights with a soft airbrush of satin black or satin varnish on the most exposed surfaces. I hadn't thought about copper. But yes, it will have to have some shine.
@Ben M, Hahaha. Thank you. Your comment with a triple meaning has made me laugh several times, but in my defense I can tell you that this horse It is known as having the strength of an elephant and bites like a tiger. That's why they nicknamed him tiger elephant. 😄
@Kim, thank you very much Mate for stoping bye and comment. Always apreciate your suport.

These horses were a nice surprise, Rui!
I'm currently fighting the harnesses of a two-horse team pulling a gun carriage(it's a hard fight- I can tell you!).
Your reins look splendid!
Cheers,

@ Angel Yovtshev, Thank you for stoping by. Mate Your comment was also a nice surprise to me. Apreciated. I'm sure that for a master scratch builder like you, the harnesses will be a piece of cake. Looking forward to see it.
@ Pietro De Angelis, Thx a lot for you praise, really Apreciated. But you are right and If you would know the century I started the Italeri kit... 😄 I'm a slow modeller wich fails to keep the Mojo high for long periods, so, it's nice to make a few more steps to conclusion. I'm glad you like my work on the Elefant and horse.
@Desert Marlin, Thx again for your suport, it means a lot to me. I'm sure you noticed that i've followed your advise and gave it a soft overcoat of satin Varnish on the upper or most exposed surfaces 😉

That astronaut on the ground reminded me of something. I saw a clip from a movie about some war on the moon. It made me think about the fact that war on earth is bad enough but war in space is horrifying. When you get shot on earth you can hide in a ditch, take some rest, tend to your wound and either go back to base or into the fight. If you get shot in space and it penetrates your suit your done for, you just die, no amount of bandages can help you in the few seconds you have. The last thing you see is the vast emptiness of space and/or the person who killed you. Your body dosent even decompose into the earth. You just lay there till you get back to earth or incinerated. Wow, see gorby a good build makes a person think about more than what meets the eye, this build is a perfect example. It makes you think. 11/10

This won't be in FAA colours as I don't have any more FAA decals for this era of phantom so it's going to have to RAF.

Hi Dave pain in the but when something like this happens to paint..?
It's all a learning curve.
I snapped a canopy in two recently.
Don't let it put you off, Velejo paints are very reliable and don't let you down.
I purchase a basic colours set when l first set out and never looked back.
Good luck with sorting it out..👍👍

Shame about the crazing as the model was looking very good. Do you know if it was the paint or the top coat which cracked?

Mr D , nothing puts me off, as you say it's all a learning curve. Gorby, I "think" it was too heavy a paint coat,. I've stopped using pure acrylics. I now use Tamiya acrylics thinned 50/50 or more with cellulose thinners (and a mask) gives a super smooth finish and no primer needed to key

I've not heard of Tamiya acrylics being thinned with cellulose before. Normally I use the Tamiya thinners and find that works very well.

If you thin with cellulose (and leave it for a few hours) it breaks the particles down and gives a ridiculously smooth finish as well as etching into the plastic.

Hi Dave 👋
It's bit to Harsh for modeling Cellulose.
Isopropanol alcohol or Tamiya thinner is better and safer.
Cracking can happen if X2 paint coats are drying at quite different times.
