Holger Kranich

well not that long, it should ready with in the next few weeks.
The fuselage is a little bit tricky, too mush junctures an too many part. But it looks good too me!
I would called a creative chaos

Holger Kranich
Creative chaos is well said! But the bird looks good, too! Is it the Revell-Kit?

Great work matey, I look forward to seeing it in the flesh at Heiden.

It´s the men´s scale Trumpeter Super Hornet.

10 February 2012, 09:56

Holger Kranich
And? Are you satisfied with the kit?

10 February 2012, 10:30

Thomas Poelkemann
yes and no, as I said before the Fuselage is tricky but the rest is Ok. i´m pleased with it.

I am planning a move to "men's scale" for my next model, it's about time I broke away from the "boys"! How does the Trumpeter kit compare to the Academy F-18C models which I know were generally good but had some awkward components such as the air intakes?

10 February 2012, 11:27

Thomas Poelkemann
It put a smile on my face that you join the men´s scale community. good boy!!!
I thing that the surface detailing from the Academy Kit is better. It look more "crispy" maybe it dependent on the Plastic they use by Trumpeter. The Trumpeter plastic is from my point softer as the Academy that makes also the cockpit detail no that good as the F-18C. The air intake was not a problem it works quite well.

Holger Kranich
Aha i´m learning... 1:72 = Braille scale, 1:48=Boy scale, 1:32=Men´s scale but what is 1:144?😢

10 February 2012, 12:47

Thomas Poelkemann
it´s not for the public

Add few new pictures too my Super Hornet album. Thank´s too the extremely fast drying xtracrylix form Hannants it take only a day too get the paint job done. My Hornet will get the the SJU-17 Ejection Seat form Wolfpack Design.

Andrew Brown
Fabulous Mr P, I'm glad to hear of your new love affair with Xtracrylics, they are my favourite paints of all time, I only wish that they had a bigger range of colours or that I could easily purchase Agama Paints in the UK.

A short update today. Working on the Wolfpack Seat with a liffle nasty surprise they didn´t fit into the cockpit. The seat´s are 3mm wider than the cockpit is. UPS!!!!!!!! I sand off the details on both side of seat. and then it fit´s. not that good but it looks good to me.

16 February 2012, 22:19

Holger Kranich
Oh s..t, it wont fit! Sorry to see that the seats dont fit the way they should! I would cry if i had to sand all the detail off!🙁
