BAT21
Thanks for your nice feedback 👍

Anatolii Smyshliaiev
Excellent work. And mine has been standing unpainted for several years. Only in the Mi-10PP version with a container of electronic interference.

Thomas Wirsching
finished painting the AT gun crew today

Thomas Wirsching
Project finished😊👍

Kate Ward
Nice! What did you use for the grass?

Mathias Decommere
That grass is very convincing!

Thomas Wirsching
Thank you Kate and Mathias. That gras diorama piece was from dennisminiaturesdesign.de/shop/diorama/ a german producer of 3d printed figures and some other stuff. I´ve bought it from Modellbau König in Germany. I am not sure if they still carry it. I was not overly impressed as I had to cut quite substantial parts of the corners because the grass was applied irregularly there and looked ugly. I got a discount for that by the dealer and kept it for a while didn´t knew what to do with it until I decided for this diorama.. For this small scenario it did fit perfectly 😊

Nicolas
As soon as I finish one of my 3 current projects (2 of them ar nearly done) I will start with this little helicopter.

Nicolas
The build startet this weekend.

Nicolas
As I am covid positive (fortunately only with very mild syntomas) I had some time to build again today. So far I am positively surprised by the accuracy of fit. There are no locator pins, but I can now click the fuselage and cockpit together and even the tail section holds without glue.

Nicolas
I would like to do some rivets on the exteriour, but I couldn't find some good drawings. If somebody has a hint I would be grateful.

Nicolas
Today I started installing the controls. Doing so I noticed, the collectiv controls are missinh in the kit. So I started scratchbuilding them after photos. Also fabricated and installed blinds for the paxes.

Nicolas
Started some work on the exteriour.

Freak
Interesting project! Love the WIP pics and demo of various detailing techniques.

Nicolas
Hi Freak, welcome on board.

Shar Dipree
I have the same kit too. I'm really looking forward to your results. Following. 🙂

Nicolas
Hi Shar, welcome.

Łukasz Gliński
Cool, will watch. Still afraid to start mine 😄

Nicolas
Welcome Łukasz, there is no reason to be afraid. The fit seams quite good, and the missing details is somthin one can improve. 😉

Qwertzel
Sieht gut aus! Nehme auch mal Platz

Nicolas
Moin Quertzel, Danke für das Lob. Noch sind Sitze im Hubschrauber frei. 😉

The Colani design is cool 👍 Have fun!
And I hope your covid is gone without bad effects!

Nicolas
Hi Bughunter, thanks.
Covid wasn't to bad, I got 3 day with mild syntomas and 5 days waiting for a negativ test. 😉

Mr D
Done some nice improvements Nicolas... Be worth it, it's good to do this as puts a nice personal touch on it, l need to pick up some card like you have used ( what is it l need to look for ?)
The 2 Revell models l built ...l found the decals took a bit more softening than others models l have done!? the decals said made in Italy....no company name.
Looking good 👍 be nice bright unusual one this 😁

Nicolas
Hallo Mr D and thanks.

You can look for plastic sheets and profiles (tubes, chanels, I-beams, etc,) from various manufacturers like AK or Evergreen or use packing material eg. most blisterpacks. 😉

Guy Rump
Looking good Nicolas, following. 👍

Mr D
Hi Nicolas, doing a good job on the extra detail bits.
Be worth it, you only get to build it once...so worth getting it how you want it.
Nice 👍👍👍

Nicolas
Hallo Guy & Mr D, welcome, have a seat.
Thanks for your compliments.

Kesa Tiho
Very nice build. Ive always been curious though, how do you get such a precise paint job. Especially with the interior.

Nicolas
Hi Kesa, I do most of the interior freehand with a small brush (mostly size 000, but details sometimes with size 10/0) and well diluted paint. You kan put your brushhand onto the hand holding the part to reduce shaking.

Mr D
Looking good Nicolas 👍
Taking good shape now.
What do you use for a primer??
😃👍

Nicolas
Thanks Mr. D. I used Mr. Hobbys Aqueous white surfacer 1000.

Miguel Vaquero
Trying something completely new for me this time around. I found this resin model of Grogu on the internet, and since my girlfriend loved The Mandalorian, and of course, Grogu, I decided I wanted to surprise her with this figure painted by my self.

It's my first time painting a figure so let's see how it goes

Christoph Kunz
Taking a seat.

Villiers de Vos
Taking a seat as well. I have both these models in my stash.

Edouard Carr
Hey Villiers/Christoph - hope you enjoy the build and thanks for watching the progress. Thinking about a custom paint job on the second spitfire with reference to the album power slave of which Aces High is from. Have some home print decal sheets that I have been meaning to use for years so might try testing them out. Revell have been kind enough to send a second Eddie Sprue so will have him seated in both planes when completed.

Mr D
Brilliant 👍👍
Great project, Pilots looking menacing 💀💀
Enjoy

Edouard Carr
Cheers Mr D 😉

Jan Peters
Love the maiden song, and will be following this 👀

Villiers de Vos
Very nice progress.

Edouard Carr
Thanks Jan/Villiers hope you like to outcome!

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍
