That's a cool idea using a car sponge to hold the model. I think I will have to get one.

Regarding the Gnat, use white or pink (really!) as a base coat for yellow and it covers in fewer coats. Tamiya's yellow is probably better than most but it's still a difficult color to work with.

Mr D
Great 👍 thanks for letting me know, l been a bit confused when I've seen people spraying pink 🤔?? Then paint over. Now it makes sense will try it next time. Cheers 😀

What a nice RC-bird 👍 But it is an Albatros 😉

Neuling
Nice collection!

Mr D
Thanks Neuling...👍👍

Keen to understand your technique with these 1/700 ships, after a clean start - watching & learning Mick.

Christian Abraham
Looks like a great project

Tom B.
Looks veeery promising! These Japanese gunboats are interesting subjects which a nice little "brown water"-scene with that small boat should do really nice justice 👍 Looking forward to the final result!

Villiers de Vos
Fantastic detailed work.

Christian Abraham
Awesome build

Alberto
Wow, it's fantastic! Considering the scale you must razor sharp vision 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Awesome indeed! And there are sailors...it is beyond an ordinary man skills...

Shar Dipree
Fantastic work! 👍

Zbynek Honzik
Just as Alberto wrote! Unbelievably awesome!

Michael Schubert
That is incredible! I honestly can't fathom how you can get that much detail in that scale!!!

Alexander Grivonev
Incredible, the scale, the detail, the water. Magnificent 👍

Any chance of getting even closer with the camera?

Curatorm
Very fine; nice atmospheric vignet...

Neuling
A masterpiece.

Mick Markiewicz
Thanks a lot. I'm glad you like it 😉
I think there's no point going any closer, MACRO is enemy of modeler ;D

Alexander Grivonev
Come on, I am sure you gave each sailor an individual face expression 😉

Bruce Huxtable

Brill.

Curatorm
Wonderfull!

Alexander Grivonev
That is amazing 👍

Robert Podkoński
I am just speechless! Awesome job! I particularly love Polish Trzmiel (the original still resides in Krakow) and HZ-1 Aerocycle (imagine flying that with such "chopper blades" below you...)

Nicolas
Impressive work. 👍

Neuling
Stunning! 👍👍

Alexander Grivonev
How did you even get the blueprints and reference material for these obscure birds..

Anatolii Smyshliaiev
Mainly on various aviation websites - aviastar.org, airwar, secretprojects and the like. There are often diagrams or drawings and basic dimensions.
Various diagrams are on drawingdatabase.com.
And just searching the Internet has not been canceled yet.
When creating the JK-1, I used paper model patterns. For the H-3 Colibri, I found a brochure from the manufacturer from 1958.
Plus, working from a photo.
With the Kellet KH-15 Stable mable, it is more difficult. To determine the dimensions, I had to work from frames of video footage of helicopter tests. And so on.

I'll try to make reports more often, this is my first ship, but so far I like it, the convergence is even surprising considering the age of the model

Doubtingmango
Hah! Starting my first 1/350 scale soon too!

David Taylor
