Taking a seat too!

Skyhiker
Welcome gentlemen

Ben M
It is like a duck

Skyhiker
Yeah, it's a bit like the Su-34, just a little less flat.

DerMattes
Watching 👍

Skyhiker
Hi, DerMattes, welcome.

Guy Rump
Following. 👍

Skyhiker
Wings are on and surface details beginning.

Mr D
Coming along nicely 👍👍 More building 🤣 going ahead,
Smart and interesting aircraft, lm going to have to research n watch some YouTube videos on this aircraft.
Like the cockpit 👌

Mr D
Watching a YouTube video on the Berkut now, interesting aircraft 🤔 ..

Skyhiker
Yeah, it's kinda cool. Certainly it's different from the other Russian planes in looks.

Skyhiker
Worked on more details today.

Mr D
Better job on the nose shaping now, it was probably quite dependent on front aero due to wing position and design.
Could help with sonic boom too ??

Doubtingmango
Nice background on the vehicle. Watching…

Looks like the installation of a new boiler... but is the very first shell of the 'Trevithick', the first steam locomotive....
The vintage kit doesn't appear to be bad and quite well thought out, only the plastic material in an unhealthy-soapy looking green plastic made me a little uneasy. But it will be fine! 🙂
I'm really looking forward to the next steps - a highly interesting and refreshingly different topic!

gorby
Looking forward to see what you can do with this oldie.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Appreciated, Gorby und Alex!

Roland Sachsenhofer
The main assemblies have now been completed. Care must be taken here to clean up the numerous ejection marks and the many moulding protrusions, but that's the only thing holding it up 🙂
The colours on the parts shown are, apart from the primer with black acrylic paint, Alclad II metal paints, namely Gunmetall, Steel... and above all Alclad ''Panzer Grey''. Traces of various shades of pastel crayon brown have been applied on top with a dry brush.

Sehr cooles Projekt - ganz nach meinem Geschmack. I'm curious about the outcome.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Das freut mich- very appreciated!

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat here, of course! (I have built another incarnation of this kit...)

Roland Sachsenhofer
Robert, very pleased!

René "Lord Bilbo" Bartholemy
@Robert Podkoński : Me too! Much less details than this one though...
Taking a seat!

Roland Sachsenhofer
Hello Rene, the seat is happily yours, but the show is already over 🙂
I am proud to present you the completed 'Trevithick'! It was great fun taking photos of this gearwheel, linkage and flywheel work of wonder. Please excuse the resulting large number of pictures.
This time Alclad paints were used for the colour scheme, but not only from the metal range: what you see here is Alclad's 'Panzergrau' primer, together with 'Gunmetal' and 'Smoke' and similar shades. I have replaced the plastic parts for the push rods with metal bars. I hope you like the result as much as I enjoyed building it!

bughunter
Sehr geil 👍

Alex K
That was quick! Great result, great photos! 👍

gorby
Nice result Roland.
I was wondering how they added more coal to the boiler when the tender is so far away and the boiler door is under the pistons.

Ben M
Great subject, great build!

Robert Podkoński
You've turned this kit into the piece of art, Roland. Chapeau bas!

Roland Sachsenhofer
Thank you very much, mates! This is highly appreciated and motivating feedback! I'm glad to have ventured into an area new to me; the kit, for all its age, has charm and possibilities 🙂 Your words really make me very happy!

Juergen Klinglhuber
Great what you have mangaged with this kit in such a short time - wunderful!

Roland Sachsenhofer
I'm delighted with your praise - danke Jürgen!

Roland Sachsenhofer
.... and Gorby: You're absolutely right! The layout of the loading and coal tender also seems puzzling to me 🙂

gorby
I had a look into this and it turns out the original company who produced this kit got it wrong:

Sorry Roland. 😉

Bruce Huxtable
Goodness! You wouldn't want to get your fingers (or hair) trapped in the moving parts!!

Nice build, Roland, I'm enjoying the sound-track to the video, whilst admiring your model 🙂

Roland Sachsenhofer
Thank you very much for sharing this great video! Yes, Bruce, a highly dangerous device, and a highly illustrative demonstration of it too

Neuling
A beautiful build anyway and wonderful photos!

Lex Jassies
Didn't airfix have a similar kit in the 60s under the name Museum Series?

Yes, they had 🙂

Robert Podkoński
That's the one I've assembled.

Villiers de Vos
Very nice work on an unusual subject.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Thank you mates, for reactions and informations!

George Williams
Trevithick came from the small town of Camborne in Cornwall, UK. My family lived there for a few years in the 1960s and there was a statue of him and his steam engine outside the to

Outside the town library.
