Chris Harbour » 功能建议Would it be possible to add a required paint list to the kit listings, one that could be copied to send to a supplier. Thanks

scalematesDo you mean to see for each kit the list of paints which are written in the instructions?
27 December 2019, 13:51
TreehuggerThis sounds nice.
I guess a second best would be a digital copy of the build instructions in pdf format, which sometimes is seen on kits listed on Scalemates. 🙂

Franckymy suggestion may make this more complicated but the aircraft are not painted in alclad II, or Tamiya paint but according to a standard such as FS595 or BS. In addition, there are often agreed paint schemes such as SIOP, SEA or "lizzard scheme".
It would be very nice to have a section on real-life paint schemes with their official referene and standardised paint references, and from there a link to the various model paints.
Although I fear this would be a mamoth task.

scalematesCheck here.... our goal/hope was that after filling X amounts of decal options the amount of variants would stagnate. And we could use this as "Popular" schemes/colors. It has been a while since I last check if I can merge similar entries....
SEA Camouflage FS34102 FS34079 FS30219 FS36622
Lizard Scheme FS34079 FS30140 FS30279 FS36251
Color matches an FS code => show related paint schemes having that FScode (+name +other colors)

I will recheck if based on the massive data you all entered can be done to extract something interesting.

FranckyImpressive!!! there is still a lot more to this site than what I know and have seen. Fantastic how you can make the data itself do the heavy crunching instead of manual labour.
Still, we should be able to go from FS or BS numbers or ... to Humbrol, Tamiya numbers ...
I guess it would not be that hard to make a reference table?

scalematesWe have colorcodes for FS colors as well as colorcodes for color cans. If the values are close enough we fan do the match automatically

scalematesThis is now possible, the FS/RAL/RLM codes under Markings are now clickable, on the color page you can see same/similar colors

Lex JassiesPlanning to make a forced perspective diorama? If so, looks like a great idea 🙂 following!
14 August, 14:20
Sky after SnowYes, my first time to try forced perspective diorama. I Also prepared two Akagi, 1:700 and 1:2000. Will try to finish by this weekend.

Thomas KolbThis is really interesting and creative! And the models look absolutely beautiful too.

bruno egralLe montage est terminé. Plutôt simple et rapide... La cage m'a posé un peu de difficultés mais rien de terrible. J'ai passé des couches de blanc pur sur la carrosserie et j'ai peint les jantes en noir mat brillant. Je trouvais ça plus 'fun' que la couleur grise métallique préconisée.

ToE1984This brings back memories. Fantastic idea for a diorama and very well executed. However, you should change the title of the album. As far as I remember, the guy on the right is called Guile.

Mid FranconianIt took a while for me to capture the scene and and bring it together with True Lies 😄! Perfectly done and off the beaten track!
14 August, 10:22
NorKThat is just great! 😂
(Have you tried closing the aperture and increasing exposure time for a better depth of field? Tripod recommended)

Bob Hall"I remember the first time I got shot out of a cannon" CLASSIC! One liners galore !

Thomas KolbWhat a great scenario build of the final action scene of True Lies! Very visual and imaginative!
15 August, 09:16
Harald BesoldCool idea! Schwarzenegger is perfectly depicted in 1:72. Even his facial expression is appropriate. Great!!!

pamaelho » 功能建议Is it possible to link a magazine (or better an article in the table of contents) to a project.

scalematesNo, not yet.
So you have a built project which is featured in a magazine?
Or do you want to link it as a reference?
29 October 2021, 16:36
pamaelhoI would like to link it as a reference. For instance an article about camouflage colours, or a photo feature.

On most An-2s the rigging is painted to the same colour as the underside, so I painted the threads blue.

Moreno BaruffiniI like "what if" models, so following!!!
Ps I also sometimes take pictures with wet paint, no problem 😉👍🏻
23 December 2023, 10:41
Moreno BaruffiniGood progress! Concerning the landing lights, you could sand them a bit, and then finish with polishing 😉
13 August, 11:51
Gergely RáczThank You, Moreno. One of them went missing since then (perhaps not enough glue was applied, and it fell off while I was working on the wings), so I'll have to make one from scratch. A piece of clear sprue might do the job.
