These pictures are the start of a model project that I had long shied away from with respect: the kit parts promised a lot of fun and a highly interesting aircraft as a result, but also a lot of 'toil and trouble'. On the other hand: the adventure simply beckons.... 🙂
Here you can see the parts in almost raw condition, I only started to detail a little with round and flat wire. The tricky question was how to treat the sensitive and already somewhat battered transparent part of the unusual cockpit glazing. I decided to cut off the two side parts, mask the inside and outside of the windows and only attach the central clear part at the very end. I like the pictures with the over-designed radial engine: what a power-to-weight ratio for these racing machines!
The last two pictures show the current state of construction and detailing.... Well, we'll see...

There she is now - at least on her own two feet, even if the appearance with engine and mighty cowling - not to mention the upper wing - will change a lot. The construction steps up to this point were accompanied by a lot of sanding, but the accuracy of fit turned out to be surprisingly good.

Ok now that's one interesting plane. Certainly not a Laird a**. What a huge engine!

You're right!
A friend asked if I was building a flying washing machine - in fact, the empty mount for the huge motor still reminds me of it. All the more so now that everything is white: it went well with all the white that Martin Mars is currently applying and forms a good basis for the following 'lemon yellow'.

Looks a bit like a cement mixer to me, but I can see a washing machine in there.

Thank you Skyhiker, Cement mixer - I'm laughing my arse off, the Solution is obviously an inspiring sight: how apt!
It's probably time for the massive cowling with the mighty radial engine to go on the front end. One step towards this is the colour yellow, which will remain on the wings and tailplane. I would like to use Gunze's 'Emerald Green' for the fuselage colour.

From this morning with freshly applied decals: everything seems to shimmer and shine appropriately - but it turned out that the decals are absolute 'self-destructors'. The ones you can see here on the model fortunately went reasonably well, but the large markings on the wings and fuselage were beyond repair: just crumbs. Now I'm looking for someone who might be able to make me some painting masks on a PC. Luckily I scanned the decal sheet beforehand.

I always enjoy the surprise you reveal to us. Often with a type of aircraft that I had never seen before. Please keep it up! 👍

Beautiful paintwork!
I don't know if this helps but I've sent scans of decals to stsdecals before and they were able to make replacements for the ones that shattered.

Hi mates, I'm sure you can imagine how motivating your reactions are - thank you very much! I'll try that, Ben, thanks for that too!

Thank you Jürgen! I've just returned from the 'Bavarian Modelling Days' in Erding - a most enjoyable modelling weekend! 🙂 STS really doesn't look bad, but I may have found a quicker way: A modelling colleague has taken on the task of creating adhesive masks for the outstanding identifiers on his PC. The way things are going, it should be possible to spray soon.
This morning I was able to brace the Super Solution using what I think is a good method: The flat wire is stapled into one hole with cyanoacrylate, the other end is drilled through so that the wire is fixed in place with a drop of super glue while one end is pulled hard. Once everything has hardened - with a spray from the 'activator' in seconds - you can let go - the wire tightens perfectly and all is well. Now all that remains to be done is to sand the excess wire and glue flat before applying a new coat of paint.

Oh it's looking so good!
I use a similar approach to wires but I use fine rubber string. I learned from Elias K on here to drill the holes and then patch the finish like you're doing.

Hi Alec, indeed. It is a good kit, quite simple with a manageable number of components. Just like the original: no comparison with the Seaking in terms of equipment and complexity. In addition, it should only be one project in between. According „to my terms" OOB. 🙂🙂

Looks great! Nice to see that the pieces fit so well.
I can't wait to see which blue you decide on. I picked up Gunze H54, but I'm not sure if I like it yet.

Nice weathering!
You portrayed the Stryker well👍
Will there be a dmall dio for this?
Ps: The OKB tires are worth their money, aren't they?!😄

Thanks Simon, I'm working on it 😀The tires are pretty good, but needed some work to make them fit. Probably it might be easier on the Academy kit. The ones provided by Trumpeter looked quite small and thin.

If Hobby Boss will release the announced Leopard 2A6 CAN, I might consider buidling such an umbrella! But for god's sake this will take much longer than Hobby Boss claims! 🙂
To be honest, I have only one picture of the Ozzy umbrella...

Black base colour, some lighted AK Australian green. Needs even more lightening... The installation of the tracks was quite fiddly but finally it looks much better than the oob ones.
