Your lozenge camo paint job is amazing…talk about patience and eyestrain. It reminds me of a paint by number canvas …without the numbers …but done by Piccasso.
Every morning I read these FSM posts and every morning I am blown away by the incredable work and cleverness of the ideas you modelers come up with. I am learning so much valuable information and my skills have greatly improved because of you guys .TY TY TY !!!
At what point in the lozenge painting process did the men in the white van pull up to take you away?? That is some serious steady dedicated effort there! FANTASTIC! And in 1/72 to boot!
You are something else. I believe that I have witnessed something as bad as putting indi track links together. ( I have never done it, but it looks like a pain ). Your results are amazing. I built this kit once and painted the whole wing blue.[:$]
LOL thanks all it actually went pretty quickly and I left way to many white spaces in there but… If I had to do it over I know what to look out for.
Anyhow lately I managed to do a pretty sad job of getting the struts and wings together. Its a work in progress but lets just say I got some super glue crazing etc. Oh well.
Okay well I finally finished this little project. I am not really thrilled with the results, many things went wonky on me not the least of which is the top wing is on tilted, paint fails, glue fails, etc. etc. I may get another copy of this kit and do a version 2 of it now that I know where the pratfalls are. Anyhow off to the completed pictures.
Thanks for the kind words Ace but I was not really all that pleased with the outcome. I am definatly getting another copy of the kit for a re-doo. Probably make a new thread for it.
That’s so Tee-Tiny! Come up to the 1:48 scale where you don’t go blind as quickly! =D
That’s a nice effort. With some better lighting I think you’d be surprised to see how well it came out. Don’t sell yourself short. 1:72 can be a tricky scale to work in depending on the subject.
