TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
That is art! I have to take a first row seat here and see the progress. Very impressive 👍

Spanjaard
certainly not going to miss thus master class

Dave Flitton
Wow, watching!!

Skyhiker
Right on!

Greg Baker
Oh, sign me up. I'd watch F_IV do the laundry.

Robert Podkoński
I will follow this talent show with pleasure.

gorby
Lovely work.

Michael Kohl
Surely another build that will leave me speechless and striving to come closer to this level.

William Adair
Omg thanks everyone. You guys are the best! I'm interested to see how this one comes out. I'll add more progress soon. 🤞

Ludvík Kružík
I like old planes from the early days of aviation. Your scrathbuild is fantastic. I admire how you can render all the little details in this scale. I wish you continued success in building this model and look forward to the sequel.

Bruce Huxtable
Your talents are beyond my comprehension.... Totally amazing scratch building 🙂 This little gem is already gorgeous🙂

Shar Dipree
Great work so far! 👍👍👍👍

bughunter
Another great little bird in that microscopic scale 👍

William Adair
Added a new pic. Starting on the cockpit details 👌

Bruce Huxtable
More micro-perfection. Astonishing 🙂

Michael Kohl
By the way: will your book be available in Telford in November?

William Adair
Hi Michael, I'm not sure. It should be out by then but I don't know if any sellers will be stocking it. I live in Australia unfortunately, so Telford is well outside my maximum range 😢

William Adair
Added the large control wheel to the pilot's cockpit from soldered wire and heat curved sprue. I like the little brass hub in the middle 🙂

Skyhiker
You seem to have really good control over your soldering. What tools do you have? That control wheel is impressive.

gorby
The many years training to be a jeweler probably helps. 😄

William Adair
@Skyhiker I have an inexpensive soldering iron from an electronics store. It is nothing special, but the best thing I have is liquid soldering flux. Using that allows the solder to grab the surface and stick without requiring too much heat or flooding the area with solder.

@gorby Being a jeweller helped at first. But now I am finding that the modelmaking is helping me be a better jeweller! 👍

Alec K
Outstanding work! The book is on order 👍

William Adair
Wow, thank you Alec! Hopefully it will be in your mailbox soon 🙏
I added a few more pics. Test fitting the undercarriage and one of the prototype wheels.

Christian Bruer
Outstanding craftsmanship. I really like your tiny scratch built projects 👍

Michael Kohl
Me too.
But obviously he doesn't show how he did the wheels to prevent us from fainting. 😉

Skyhiker
I just don't get how its possible. Really man, you need to get a life or something. This shit is just way too good!

Mr D
Wow, what scale👌, l struggle to build a 1:72 without breaking of a tail wheel or antenna 🤣.
Really nice n interesting subject 👍👍

Skyhiker
Where do you get your blueprints?

William Adair
@Michael Kohl, I made an album about the wheel back in January, showing the stages of construction. Spoked wheel test, 1/144 | Album by F_IV
@Skyhiker, Windsock Datafiles provide the best drawings. I also use the 3-view drawings from the Wingnut Wings kit for some areas.

Zbynek Honzik
A masterpiece is being created here!!! Scratchbuild at this scale and this quality! Unbelievable! Bravo! 👏👏👏

Mr James
Beautiful painting and weathered to just the right amount

John Kristoffersen
Oooohh! Beautiful build!

Zbynek Honzik
Beautiful! 👏👏👏

Odin Thor
Guten Tag, er ist neuwertig. Er ist so wie ich ihn im Laden neu erworben habe, kleine Lagerspuren, er ist vollständig.
Versand würde noch dazu kommen.
Die Kosten für Versand wären dann 25 CHF. Gesamtbetrag wären dann 75 CHF.
Der Versand würde versichert sein bis 50 CHF und mit Sendungsverfolgung.
Grüße Thor

50 Franjen fürs Modell passt für mich aber 25 Franken Versand finde ich schon recht happig....wenn ich Dir was mit DHL schicke kostet mich das inkl Versicherung 15€....

Hast du Paypal???

Guy Rump
The next one of my projects will be the RAAF Boomerang by Special Hobby, a mix of plastic and resin. 🙂

Sergej I
Interesting and unusual topic 🙂 👍

Guy Rump
Made a start on the Boomerang, the cockpit is a fair number of pieces. The internal main colour is Vallejo BS Interior Green. 🙂

Welcome along Sergej, hopefully it will go together in a decent fashion! . 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Sergej I & Matti T. 👍

Moreno Baruffini
Following! I have just added it to my stash, and I also noticed that the cockpit is made by a lot of pieces!!!!!

Nicolas

Djordje Nikolic
Me too!

Guy Rump
After quite a bit of to-ing and fro-ing, I managed to get the cockpit in and the fuselage together. Wings went together ok. 🙂

Welcome Moreno, Nicolas & Djordje! 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Bernd G, Moreno B, Daniel K, Sukhoi242 & Derek B. 👍

Patrick Hagelstein
Looking good Guy! I kinda like the stubby purposeful shape of a Boomerang.

Guy Rump
Wings were added to the fuselage. Filler added to several parts but not too much. 🙂

Thanks for your kind comment Patrick, it was definitely a strange shape for its time! 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Neil & Franck D. 👍

Guy Rump

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Rudy P, J35J, Lost_Erik & 1 other mate. 👍

Dave Flitton
Excellent work. How was the build?

J35J
You are certainly the NOVO/FROG master!👏🏼
Taking a chair 👍🏻

Ben M
This is fun. I built the prototype D.XXI that went to the east indies.

Duster_d
Ben M, in fact, this model (FROG F156\F223) is more similar to the prototype of the Fokker D.XXI than to the production version.

Dave Flitton
Watching!!
