My Brother's second car. What a fun car it was.

István Szücs
Another masterpiece!

Spence Wilson
@brent, I owned a few of them in the past myself. It was a blast to drive even tho it was not huge power.

@Istvan, thanks so much for your comment. It is appreciated.

I loved this generation of the CRX of my sister. In Germany we had it as 16 valve engine with 125 HP. This thing was fast. May I ask: what rims are on your model kit? I can't see them clearly but it looks like this are just steel rims. They don't look like the alloy rims of the kit.

Spence Wilson
@ Christian, you are correct about the rims and tires, they are not from the original kit. They are from the Hasegawa Civic SB-1 kit and they fit just about perfect. The discs in the front are a little big for them to fit flush but a little modification and they are snug in there.

Chris Church
Very nicely done!

Watching!

tuned in

Nice paintwork. Colors look good, I wouldn't worry that's an issue. Can always change the tone with a wash anyway. 👍

TV_scalemodels
Thanks! Yes that is very true. I think after the weathering I don't see the original colours too much..

James C
Nice progress 👍

Michael Kohl
Beautiful

Daniel
A true legend! awesome painting, the chipping is just perfectly made for this particular jet, (not an easy task, theres a thin line between realistic used look and repainting the whole thing...)

Shar Dipree
Extremly nice and awesome details (overpainted insignia for example). Excelent. I'm curious how the phantom will look like in the end.
Is there a photo that you use as a reference?

TV_scalemodels
Thanks for the comments!

Weathering was interesting, it is always difficult to balance realistic and nice looking. I'm glad you like it!

I used pics on the Internet and excellent fundecals instruction
for reference. And my books of course too.

Thanks for the links.
I think the weathering has become great. The aircrafts were partly very weathered during the war.

James C
Stunning looking F-4! 👍

I keep saying to myself that THIS will be the year that I pull my finger out and build one; but it never eventuates. This build has definitely renewed my desire to finally do it. 😉

Spanjaard
that is a great Phantom. excellent.

Bruce Huxtable
Wall to wall stencils, but your scratch building skills and eye for the painting and weathering are awesome. Wow!

Thanks for your feedback! Here is a build video if you are interested:

Weathering, chipping, dirt, grime and heat staining all done to perfection!

CaptGPF

Sitting down for the show!

It's been a while my friends. Have been working on 3 subjects at the same time since October. Stay tuned!

That looks like it's going to be a remarkable diorama.

Lenny Li
Some updates. First time using hot wire foam cutter. It turns out OK for setting up the base. Applied AK diorama paste on top.

Made the first mistake when using spray can - the paint or the agent reacts and corrodes any exposed foam surface. Had to reapply paste for the 2nd time to fix. Painting is quite straightforward, just Tamiya acrylic paint with airbrush.

Next step will be weathering.

Derek Ryan
Fantastic work, great job

Neuling
Very good looking vehicle! - Where in Africa stand these giantesses?

playtime 222
Are the figures of Indiana Jones and his dad next?

Neuling
Your reference picture shows the Erechteion on the Acropolis in Athens.

Rui S
Great paint work so far. 👍
@Neuling yes They will leave soon to Afrika😉

Lenny Li
All done. Still working on my figure painting skills...

Hanno Kleinecke
Wow that looks superrealistic and lively ! Excellent modeling ! The only question that comes to me is - how did this Steyr manage to sink two subchasers and 10.600 tons of enemy shipping - in the african desert..... 🙂 No offence ! 🙂

Moritz Fentzahn
Great scene. Love it 👍

Neuling
Top paint work on the Steyr and the figures!👍

Konrad -
That is indeed a very very nice dio with all that details in it! Great presentation on this unique background!
Absolutely great 👍!

Rui S
Impressive work and dio. Great weathering on the Steyer, lot's of details. Very well done 👍

Spanjaard
it looks great. fantastic details. Interesting to use copies of the Caryatids as statues (as normal Caryatids they are quite over dimensioned, and the Afrika Korps was never in Athens, I think 😉 ) fantastic dio.

Dimitrios Balanos
Nice work, but Kariatides are located in Athens.

Mathias Decommere
Very original! Love it!

Finn
Superb!

Pietro De Angelis
Damn I just saw it now, awesome dio!

Mr James
Missed it too. Beautiful stone work

Lebloge
Splendid! 😮

Pepe
