Nice work.

Denis Dogadov
I wonder what is written on the tank's turret? I didn't understand anything at all, did you?

gorby
WOW! The PE really lifts this kit to another level.

Mr D
Nice little job, fiddly to do l built a ship n it was difficult, l had to get a tweezers set.
Good stuff 👌

Łukasz Gliński
Oh wow, how are you going to mask it now for the camo?

Marcin Dudek
Wow! Looks greate. It makes me want to build it too

Robert Podkoński
This is far beyond my skills... I agree with gorby here.

Alec K
Cool, following 👍

Finn
I'm in

Xinnan Zhao
Fantastic PE works bro!

Skyhiker
This thing almost looks steam punk. Crazy it's real.

Robert Podkoński
And here is the real thing 😉
Invitation to Polish Army Museum, Warsaw - part 2 | Album by podkon

Simon Nagorsnik
Wow! Thank you mates for all your interest!
@gorby: oh yes, They really make the difference. The age of the kit is noticeable, so the PE is a nice plus.
@Łukasz Gliński: There will be no camo pattern. The vehicle is small and such an elaborate multi-color camouflage would make all details visually disappear. In the end, it would only look colorful and misshapen, i guess.
@Robert Podkoński: thank you for the pics! A good source, also for later projects 😉 However, the exhibited specimen would have to be a replica, because according to my research, no original vehicle has survived over the time.
Thanks for all your comments and likes!! 🎉

Skyhiker
Brilliant!

Robert Podkoński
Of course, it is a replica, Simon. In fact I was thinking especially about you when uploading these photos. You've done awesome job on this kit - I know the 'quality' of the kit itself 😉 Congrats!

CaptGPF
Holy cow! Everything on this build is phenomenal! The insane OE work and the final painting and detailing at this micro scale is insane!

Tom B.
That is some top-grade PE and detailing work 👍 I guess one can get something out of those RPM lts after replacing like 75% of the details 😉

Mr D
Lends it's self well to armed vehicle the PE construction.👍👍

Robin (WhiteGlint)
👀 I am late to the party.
Very good looking tiny armored car, Simon. 👍 I am curious what nice base you will give it to stand on.

DuperScale
Oh wow, thats Crazy

Neuling
Small and beautiful!

Thomas O'Eh
Fantastic job on such a tiny vehicle!

Guy Rump
Great job! 👍

Villiers de Vos
A beautiful little gem.

Michael Kohl
Nice. Only the id-plate doesn't match the country sticker.

Dima
Oops. What country does the plate correspond?

Alex K
I'm in - of course...

Michael Kohl
I only and sincerely hope that you quadruple checked your references that the original plane didn't have an "Airfix" molded on the cockpit side walls - lest you have to scratch new ones. 😉

Łukasz Gliński
My heart broke when I had to do it 😁

Nicolas
I'm in. Got the Airfix kit and the Pavla detail set in my stash, but I'm thinking about replacing it with the AVI kit. I think your report will be a big help there.

Cuajete
Great! The Bird Dog Society has begun. I have felt a great disturbance in the Force, but I remembered that Łukasz is a great tamer of hard plastics 😉

It looks like those photo-etches are doing a good job 👌

Alex K
So... if the AVI kit is destined for the representation of Major Buang-Ly's plane... I'm also eager to see what the Airfix kit will be...

Łukasz Gliński
You're absolutely right Alex - AVI's going to be Major's BirdDog and Airfix is destined to be boxart DJ-coded one.
I was thinking of Maltese markings for it, but there are none available.
Cuajete, the PE are quite good, but the Airwaves set has quite unclear hand-drawn instructions, which is challenging sometimes.
Nicolas, wish I could fetch the Pavla tail set, I need to try restoring the raised lines after having to remove the injection marks.

Nicolas
I'd wish there would be a conversion kit to a Siai SM 1019. But I think I have to scratchbuild the different cowling, propeller and tailsection.

S M
I'm in!

Łukasz Gliński
Terve! 😛

István Szücs
Interesting project, I'm watching!

Robert Podkoński
Watching too.

Łukasz Gliński
Welcome mates 👍

Clement
Nice project, I'll take a chair and follow along 🙂

Cuajete
Very nice interior, Łukasz! 👍

Guy Rump
Looking good Lukasz, following. 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Thanks and good to see you. I progressed a bit with AVI set as Airfix requires some corrections, namely tail and windows

Cuajete
Good progress, Łukasz! 👍

Thomas Kolb
Wow, that cockpit looks beautiful! Are the wings joined to the transparent canopy only? Are you using CA or regular styrene solvent? I find that transparent plastic doesn't create a strong bond using regular styrene cement, but maybe you are more skilled than me.

Łukasz Gliński
Shhh, Thomas, so far it does stay together 😉
Actually the greenhouse is build using CA in some places and Mr Cement SP in others.
I think it depends on the material used by the manufacturer, for example Zvezda lately is known for using polyethylene afaik.

Mirko Römer
Small, but I'm in.

Cuajete
Łukasz, looks like you did a good job with those windows 👍

schecter87
A start has been made

schecter87
The engine is done. At the end it will be covered by the side cowl and will be visible by 15% 🙂

Mr D
Brilliant, a good start 👌.
Tamiya know there bike's 👍👍 l did the NRS-500 it had a see through fairing, So l did an oval area unpainted to see engine.
Like it 😁

schecter87
Finally finished the exhaust. For this kit it was a bit tricky, because of Tamiya provides a bit different way of assembling it (in my opinion is not very successful).

schecter87
The project is nearing completion, but I'm really tired of it. The sets from the '90s are cool, but they have their own peculiarities.

Michael Kohl
Looking good.

Mr D
Coming along nicely now good exhaust heat effect 👌
What paint system do you use.
Nice bike good project 👍👍

Mike Grant
Superb 👍

Wow, stunning work!

gorby
I've not sold anything on here so I could be wrong….
Got to your stash.
The item you want to sell, click the '+' to the right of that entry.
Click 'move'. Don't worry that it's connected to the bin symbol, it won't delete it.
That will show a number of options in green boxes of which the last one is 'For sale'.
I don't want to go any further than that as I don't want to sell anything. If you need help from that step someone else will have to step in.
Hope that helps.

Michael Kohl
After that you press 'return' and then again on the '+'. Now it will show you some options like i. e. the 'price'-button. By clicking you can set a price, change the currency you wanna trade with and so on.

My two cents on selling on Scalemates: I prefer ebay. Here I encountered much less interest in what I had to offer. On ebay most of the things sold on first presentation.

bughunter
I think the new notification system will help here - you will get a Notify if someone sell a item on your wishlist. I like it!

Andrew Read
One of my first attempts at a limited-run cottage industry kit, and I am thankful I left it more than 40 years before tackling it. I now have far more patience for what is a tricky kit for a casual modeller such as me!

Guy Rump
Interesting, following. 👍

Cuajete
Interesting and unusual model. Following!
