DanielI agree with Neuling, this is another gem you are showing here, I again really like the dynamic pose and the way you took the pics, awesome stuff 👍

TreehuggerI think you should have some fun and use an image editor to erase the stand from at least some of the photos. 🙂 As time goes by, perhaps the photos will be what you have in store.

Roland SachsenhoferThis project has been waiting long enough, now the time has come! The "shell", seen here, is quickly put together, the glued seams are still wet, so to speak. I plan to show the A90 in a proper dio - gliding just above the water!
7 July, 09:08
TreehuggerI just remembered, I have this kit in my stash.
Are those windows on the side? Like on passenger jets?
7 July, 18:13
Roland SachsenhoferIf this was some kind of passenger aircraft, I would book a flight for sure. 🙂
I will drill the windows and fill them with Krystal Klear.
7 July, 18:25
Roland SachsenhoferThank you both for interest and comments! Well, I will think over with that windows.... Thank you for the link!
8 July, 06:46
Raz1I stand corrected. I had originally not seen the windows. Thanks, Skyhiker.
Plenty of interior photos here: flickr.com/photos/la..597/with/45021731405
And the last surviving example (per Wikipedia) is here: museum-vmf.ru/
Even though the appropriate page won't load here, a photo displays in the top-of-page banner rotation.
8 July, 14:30
Roland SachsenhoferI agree, what pictures! The question of the windows should now also be answered "from the inside" as well. Thanks for these excellent links, mates!
9 July, 12:40
Roland SachsenhoferA few new pictures here too: the finished pre-shading has shown a few touch-up needs, but tomorrow I want to be able to apply the surface colour!
11 July, 15:21
Michael KohlProbably too late, but that project would have been perfect to try a levitation display.

11 July, 17:27
Roland SachsenhoferI think it's a really wonderful idea.... A few Star Wars themes are in the making, possibly here: I would also like to see a Tie-Fighter hovering over this base.
A nice encounter - magnets are actually being used in this project! Since I want to show the "Orlyonok" gliding over a water surface as well as standing still, I have prepared two versions of the props. In order to be able to change them stably, I attached magnets to the axis of rotation. The one on the engine was inserted through a hole from the outside. It sits on the tip of a toothpick, which has been inserted through the hole in the inside of the engine. The magnet now sits exactly in the centre of the engine diameter. The second magnet only had to be glued to the two ends of the propeller axles. Now, it works perfectly with a soft "click"! 🙂
12 July, 06:56
Roland SachsenhoferThe Oryonok still looks a bit 'artificial', but in principle shows its surface colours, which will hopefully breathe a little life into it, are the traces of use and wear that I will still apply. The windows on the fuselage will of course also be drilled out and filled with clear white glue.
At the same time, the water base is now being worked on. This time I'm using a light filler on a polystyrene base as a base for this, with Vallejo water gel on top.
The magnetically interchangeable ahrwerk and propeller have worked - which is great news of course!
17 July, 17:34
Roland SachsenhoferA few pictures of the water base in the making: I'm using a new material to build up the water surface. This so-called 'light filler' dries within 24 hours and is easy to shape with the appropriate tools - here with a simple brush
18 July, 11:51
Robert PodkońskiJust a suggestion, Roland - an ekranoplan flying above the sea 'irons out' the waves under its wings in a characteristic manner:

18 July, 14:43
Roland SachsenhoferRobert, thank you for that important hint, I wasn't aware of this!
18 July, 14:47
Roland SachsenhoferRobert, your hint made me to rethink and rebuild the whole thing a bit: the strip of water flown over is no longer deeply furrowed, but has been flattened - the picture material helped a lot.
You can see the whole thing now primed with Tamiya acrylic paint and coloured once, tomorrow transparent water gel from AK will be applied...
18 July, 18:18
Robert PodkońskiWater looks already like on these photos, Roland. I cannot wait to see the plane levitating above the waves...

Roland SachsenhoferWith these pictures I open the book report on Roden's Junkers D.1: I tried to extend the interior with some steel wire, the seat belts are from Eduard. For the detailing I downloaded the very interesting building instructions from Wingnut Wings for the large D.1 in 1:32, which is quite helpful if you want to have a good documentation as a basis for detailing. I'm also going to realise one of the WW variants, which I immediately liked: all in Dural/ NMF with only a minimal set of markings.
7 July, 09:03
bughunterWatching!
I have done the short fuselage already, I hope one day I can do the long one too.
Is the engine painting finished? I can recommend the WNW manual for this, still available on WNW page.
8 July, 20:44
Roland SachsenhoferThanks for the tip - it's definitely a good one! The printed WNW instructions are next to me, so I want to use a little oily black on the top of the engine and add a little "brass"... But not only WNW instructions, also your excellent work is my reference.
9 July, 12:35
Roland SachsenhoferThe fuselage of the D.1 is now closed, the only thing to be careful of was not to damage the corrugated sheet metal joints. A related issue arises with the leading edges of the wings: in my opinion, the prototype shows a continuous line around the leading edge.... this will be difficult to depict: I will try to get close to this with careful sanding and the same amount of reworking with a scalpel.
11 July, 07:09
bughunterYes to clean the wing seem is not that esay. I must admit I used also wings from another kit after I was not happy with the first try. I have both the long and short fuselage kits and the wings are the identical. But that shifts the problem only to a later date, when I will build the long one. A new Part PE set is waiting too 🙂
12 July, 16:49
Roland SachsenhoferThank you for your words, mates! - I completely agree that this is not an easy topic! My approach, which you can see started here, is to work on the front edge of the profile with a triangular file. I didn't even try to bring the corrugated sheet metal runs of the top and bottom together - that would be far too small for me - but simply used the file edge many times.... Well, in my opinion it looks at least a little better now than before, so I'll try to make it a little more precise....
14 July, 08:57
Roland SachsenhoferThe Alclad metal colours mercilessly bring out all the flaws and imperfections, especially when everything has already been trimmed to a high gloss in preparation for applying the decals like here! The Wingnut Wings instructions describe an effect called 'tiger stripes' on the wing sheeting, which I recreated using various aluminium and dural colours.
18 July, 11:56
bughunterThe stripes are great - can be noticed, but both shades still looks like aluminium which it was.
18 July, 14:53
Roland SachsenhoferThank you very much, mates!
The opinion on the 'tiger stripes' really really pleases me in a very motivating way!

Roland SachsenhoferHere are first pictures of these lovely kit. Again, Airfix has to be praised for parts fit, sound general layout and crispness of detail.
To make things not all too cheap I got a cockpit set and a new canopy from Pavla; you can see the Resin being fixed to the plastic fuselage halves. The Resin-seats got further harnesses made of painted Tamiya masking tape.
5 April 2015, 19:14
Roland SachsenhoferThank you Michael! The "Gnat" is quite a small and neat aircraft, no wonder that´s its 1:72 representation seems to be a fast build. There is not much more to be assembled; just some cleaning up of the few glue seams- and then it´s time for Alclad.
7 April 2015, 06:40
Roland SachsenhoferIndeed, Michael...
Some little progress here. Gunzes Gloss Black paved the way for Alclad White Aluminum; next step will be masking the Alu to get the glossy Red on the surfaces.
8 May 2015, 18:09
Roland SachsenhoferSome steps further... Decals have been applied on a coat of Gunze Clear Gloss Acrylic, next the surfaces will be sealed by a second layer of the same.
Some corrections with dry brush have to be made, but the Gnat is undeniably nearing completion... 🙂
25 May 2015, 14:50
Roland SachsenhoferThank you both! That´s very kind, Soeren 🙂
Oh yes Choppa, I would be pleased. She did marvelous work on this colour scheme. I need the 48er scale Gnat too!
26 May 2015, 05:50
Choppa NuttaThis the trouble with watch cool builds go together, my stash ends up that bit larger because now I fancy a 1/48 Gnat !! 😄
26 May 2015, 10:53
Roland SachsenhoferOh yes, all these offers are just too tempting...!
The "Gnat" is nearly finished, just a few things left to be done....
29 May 2015, 05:20
Stefan FraundorferHallo Roland! Mir gefällt Deine Gnat in ihrem farbenfrohen Outfit sehr gut.
30 May 2015, 06:34
Roland SachsenhoferHallo Stefan, danke für Deinen Kommentar! Die nächste Gnat- und die kommt bestimmt und in 1:48- lässt höchstwahrscheinlich alle Farbe Farbe sein und erscheint in glänzendem Schwarz 🙂
That project is finished, the new picture show you the final result: all in all a marvelous, precious and trouble free kit, well worth being build!
Thank you all for comments and interest!
30 May 2015, 16:53
Christian RistitsHallo Roland, kann mich hier nur anschließen! Ich kenne die Gnat in 1:72, deine Präzision an dem kleinen Modell ist wieder einmal bewundernswert! Sehr schöne Arbeit! LG Christian
30 May 2015, 17:03
Bart GoesaertModel seems nice. do you also have pics from the underside? I've thought I saw some silvering or is it he work of the light at the XP-decals in the orange parts. I do have the same on my Blohm and Voss, it seems like silvering, but is a strange effect with the light, and I wanted to know wether it will be fixed by adding some clear varnish over them...
3 June 2015, 10:17
Roland SachsenhoferThank you all for your kind words!
Bart, I have added photos from the Gnat´s underside. You have been right: the first layer of Gunze gloss clear as a preparation for the decals was not enough to prevent a kind of silvering, but the following layers did seal the decals and stop that effect.
6 June 2015, 07:34
Bart Goesaertthx, it give me also some confidence for a solution... with kind regards
6 June 2015, 10:34
Clifford KeeslerDarn nice job. Between your's and Augie's , it makes me think I better invest in one. LOL.
6 June 2015, 14:22
Christian BruerUps I missed this. Very nice and clean work on that tiny bird. Well done Roland!
6 June 2015, 17:57
Roland SachsenhoferHi Christian, it´s just a little "Gnat" easy to be overlooked! 🙂
Thank you, your words mean a lot to me!
7 June 2015, 06:16
Nick DragoneExcellent. A difficult paint scheme that requires patience while masking. You nailed it !
20 July, 03:03
Roland SachsenhoferSuch attention nine years after construction makes me happy - thank you for your feedback on the Gnat! I remember it as a good buildable kit of a, well, small aeroplane
