I'm following this to learn

Martin Oostrom
Another tutorial one needs to watch

Gerald Sigmund
@mks: Komakais Walkaround shows meshes for the left and right intakes and none for the center one.

Bozzer
I have no idea of your subject, but I do enjoy your builds. The tutorial is always a lesson, and very informative. Keep them coming 👍

Pepe
Looking

berni
I take a seat 👍

DerMattes
Watching 👍

Johne 69
I am in too 😃

Ben M
When you thin parts, what technique do you use?

MS K
@Ben M - When I need to shave a lot, like this time, I use file.

Michael Kohl
Martin and Bozzer pointed it out. This will be fun and informative to follow.

Matteo Pescarin
Oh wow, as usual, fantastic documentation of the efforts going into this project. Chapeau to you!
Nonetheless, it makes me want to skip any Revell kit from now on... if I only didn't have any in my stash XD

MS K
@Matteo - The new mold products produced since around 2010 are generally nice quality(2CV, VW T1, 911G, Etc...) , but this product is so poorly made that it is ridiculous. I don't know what the production concept of this kit is. It is poor for a precision model, and it's not even easy to assemble.

Michael Kohl
With Revell you better check in advance how that specific kit is rated by others. They have tons of reboxes and quite a few kits where you just wanna ask: are you serious? But then, once in a while, just to show that they are able - in general - to be a serious modelling company, they release some really fine stuff. Doesn't hurt to be prepared what you're up against.

Alexander Grivonev
A true Revell car kit experience 👍 The casted on wiper is especially painful

Michael Kohl
That diffusor is a tremendous improvement.

Such a tool makes such work as fitting the diffusor panels to the chassis much easier (the thinner the needles/pins, the more precise the contour).
Just a german site to give an idea.
Cheers Michael

MS K
Nice idea. I wish there was something made of insect pins thin enough to use in a plamodel.

Johne 69
Great work so far 👍

berni
A question. What Colours you would use at this kit?

MS K
@berni - The red is Italian Red, and I plan to use Cobalt Blue + Sky Blue (the instructions say to mix Ultramarine and Blue).

Denis Dogadov
I make up the silkscreen on the glass with a very thinly sliced masking tape.

MS K
@Denis - Yeah, I used to do it that way too, before I started using masking film.
My advice is that when masking that way, 'Tamiya masking tape for curves' is much easier than paper tape.

Spanjaard
wow, your attention to detail and how detail your build logs are, never disappoint! amazing

George Williams
That interior looks really good.

Patrick van Veen
Couldn't leave this at the second hand market, unopened for less then half the price

Spanjaard
fantastic details, and the blue color is just perfect for it.....

Pepe
Greeeeeeeeat

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

John
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 😀

Johne 69
Some very nice Modells and a lot of fun 👍

Neuling
Nice collection!

Mr D

Kim Branders
Good work. Grtz Kim.

Es-haq Khosravi
Great job!

Rui S
Thank you for your comments. Very old italeri kit. Waited for years for a zimmerit solution...

Rui S
Kim, Coming from an real Expert in the subject like you, is a great complement, Thanks.

Kim Branders
I'm not an expert, just someone shares the same hooby like you. Keep up the good work mate.

Kim Branders
I meant hobby😉

Rui S
HeHeHe. For me your work is great, so if not an Expert I'm sure you are a Great modeller.

Marko Paakkanen
Very nice tree !😉

Nice dio coming!

Rui S
Thanks Marko. Yes a small one that also died early...

Donald Medley
Love your base

Rui S
Thank you Donald, the finished one is in the photo19

Tim Heimer
I love the detail work, just awesome!

Rui S
Thank you very much Timothy. It's on hold, because I thought in put some figurines in the tank and a horse rider or so in the trail next to it. I'm not very good in figurine faces... I've yet to try the oils on them😉

Donald Medley
You'll love working with oils, trust me

Fabian D.
Your solution for the Zimmerit is genious. Nice finish aswell.

Donald Medley
Very nice indeed

Rui S
Thank you very much for your kind words Fabian, and Donald... as I wrote the kit waited years for a Zimmerit solution... All my latest projects are missing the figurines hehe...

Tim Heimer
Hey I know the pain of not doing faces as well, but all we can do is learn from others and do what fits our liking

Rui S
Agree. I Think the most important is practice... A lot, with new technics. I'm confident that with oils it's going to be better...

Rui S
Some ad on photos. I thought to put some figurines on the side track but for now, I'm going to try a messenger...

Wesley De Braekeleir
Ubercool!!! Love your work sofare! Very beautiful camo pattern on the elefant! 😉

Rui S
Thank you very much for your nice comments, mates.
Much appreciated :
)

CaptGPF
Damn Rui, that camo pattern is wicked! The mud effects are also impressive!

Mr James
I agree with CaptGPF, also that tree is really good. What did you use as leaves Rui ?

Rui S
@ CaptGPF, Thank you for your comment. I hope you liked that Wicked 😄 😉 this Is an old project that is on hold as well as the photos. I hope to take better photos and complete it.
@ Mr James Thank you for your Nice words. I hope you also liked that Wicked 😄 The tree is a bonsai that had died, I cut some leaves because they were too big. If I remember correctly, I spread small wood shavings and other natural ones that I had in my vegetation stash on the ground.
Also, I thank the new likes. Apreciated

Mr James
Ah, its a Bonsai tree. No wonder it looks so good. 🙂

Rui S
I'm very happy to say that I've returned to my mancave this weekend after a to long hiatus.
So to start I preferred a lighter job, although painting horses is not, in my opinion, easy.
Let's see what this will give...

Alec K
Nice to see you back at the bench, and another shelf queen resurrected. Horse looks great imho 👍

Doubtingmango
Great job breathing life into an old kit, and I can't think of a better use for a dead bonsai tree! Looking forward to the finish!

gorby
Good to you back modelling Rui.
The horse looks great.

Rui S
@Alec, Thank you for your kind words and support. It is always great for me to receive such encouragement, even more so, when they come from a master modeler.
@Doubtingmango thx mate, I agree with you., but hey, I can only return to my bench on weekends, só it Will take some time to finish. For me the most important thing was getting my mojo back.
@Gorby, Thank you very much my friend, for your motivational words. They are always very important to me.
The horse will still improve, I hope. At least that's what I'll try to do without ruining all the work that has already been done 🤔 😉

CaptGPF
wow! you aren't horsing around (pun intended)! They look amazing!

Rui S
Thank you for your comment CaptGPF, Glad you like my hors ing 😄. Apreciated

Landlubber Mike
Nicely done!

Desert Marlin
Looks great! The coat should shimmer like a newly minted US penny. (Shiny Copper). I'll follow!!!

Ben M
I hate to be the first to inform you, that is not a tiger, nor is it an elephant, it is a horse.

Kim Branders
Rui, the horse looks amazing.

Rui S
@Landlubber Mike. Thank you for your comment. Glad you like this one
@Desert Marlin, I know whar you mean. I've been hesitating about highlights with a soft airbrush of satin black or satin varnish on the most exposed surfaces. I hadn't thought about copper. But yes, it will have to have some shine.
@Ben M, Hahaha. Thank you. Your comment with a triple meaning has made me laugh several times, but in my defense I can tell you that this horse It is known as having the strength of an elephant and bites like a tiger. That's why they nicknamed him tiger elephant. 😄
@Kim, thank you very much Mate for stoping bye and comment. Always apreciate your suport.

bughunter
I'm not really into tanks but that is a great looking horse 👍

Rui S
Wow, this is an unexpected comment. It's always great to receive a compliment from a Master. Thank you so much for stopping by and for those encouraging words. Appreciate it.

Ben M
Did you give the horse a dark wash around the tendons or post shade?

Rui S
Hi Ben, If i reacall corrctely, I gave a little bit of both, sarting with a black primer, overal coats with oils leaving those spots almost unpainted or with less coverage.

Angel Yovtshev
These horses were a nice surprise, Rui!

I'm currently fighting the harnesses of a two-horse team pulling a gun carriage(it's a hard fight- I can tell you!).
Your reins look splendid!

Cheers,
Angel

Pietro De Angelis
Damn, what a gestation this work has had,
it gives me hope that sooner or later I too will finish something!😅
Congratulations for the scene and for what you managed to do with that old Elefant, the horse is wonderful!
Admiration and respect

Desert Marlin
Very well done! Keep it up!!!

Rui S
@ Angel Yovtshev, Thank you for stoping by. Mate Your comment was also a nice surprise to me. Apreciated. I'm sure that for a master scratch builder like you, the harnesses will be a piece of cake. Looking forward to see it.
@ Pietro De Angelis, Thx a lot for you praise, really Apreciated. But you are right and If you would know the century I started the Italeri kit... 😄 I'm a slow modeller wich fails to keep the Mojo high for long periods, so, it's nice to make a few more steps to conclusion. I'm glad you like my work on the Elefant and horse.
@Desert Marlin, Thx again for your suport, it means a lot to me. I'm sure you noticed that i've followed your advise and gave it a soft overcoat of satin Varnish on the upper or most exposed surfaces 😉

Desert Marlin
I did indeed notice! Bravo!

Gary Victory
Really nice progress Rui. Impressive work on the soldiers camo.

Alec K
Nice progress on the embarrassed rider 👍

Doubtingmango
Headless horseman arrives just in time for Halloween!

Desert Marlin
Looking absolutely great!

Mark Sherwood
Nice work on the Hoss' the shading's brought out the musculature. The camo' on the headless horseman is top notch too. 🤟🥸🤘

Rui S
Hi, mates, sorry for my late reply, but I prefer to do it with some new uploaded progress photos. Gettting near to the end on this two. Hope you like them.
@ Gary Victory, Thank you very much for stoping by and nice comment;
@ Alec K, Thx again for your words, the rider come back with proud;
@ Doubtingmango, Thx for looking. Now I think he is redy for another kind of Halloween, if you get my drift;
@ Desert Marlin, thank you for your kind words, suport and Encouragement. Apreciated;
@ Mark Sherwood, Thank you for your nice comment. I know nothing about horse anatomy, so I follow the reliefs and I Think I can be happy with the result.

Desert Marlin
Just looks awesome! The progress is excellent!

Guy Rump
Superb so far!! 👍

Rui S
@ Desert Marlin, Thank you a lot for your Great suport.
Near the end as intended in photo 19 (June 20, 2016, 😮).
A few more bits and pieces and I can finaly close this chapter. That makes me very happy.

Rui S
@ Guy, sorry, didn't notice your comment during the uploading of the photos. Thank you. I'm glad you comment and like it.
@CaptGPF, I take this opportunity to post the images that inspire the camouflage painting. The numbering remained on the decals that I had.

Desert Marlin
Aye! It's a good feeling!

Rui S

Still Huummm 🤔
