Hi every one I have been jumping from build to build recently, having to wait on client instructions etc.
so here are some build shots of the , with lights etc
This is going on to a deck which is rather large, 1Meter lenght, this will enable 3 other biulds to be on the same deck
Dude…this is seriously off the charts!!! Where does a guy start in complimenting this??? This needs to go behind an enclosed and dust free display on a carrier museum somewhere for God’s sakes!! Five star job all the around from every angle I can see.
Spectacular work. I am very impressed with the Tomcat but what really blows me away is your work with the figures. The first picture of them look like you have one of those miniaturization machines and you just miniaturized 3 real crewmen. Wow, fantastic work! The carrier deck section is also very well done.
May I ask, where the figures are from? The painting process…What paint did you use and did you airbrush Future your paint job before decals and flat after?
Just beautiful. My head hurts just thinking about the hours that went in to this one. If its not too personal, what would a client pay for something like this ?
the figures are from REEDOAK http://reedoak.com/ in France, these are a rubber composite and not resin, they are made on a 3D printer, just brilliant.
the paint process is base coat white, then dark grey sprayed from below upwards to catch the darker areas, then spray the main colours following that up with a brush picking out the individual colours, I used the badger sotar 20/20 to do this.
I used Tamiya paint for spraying then vajello for the brush work.
the F-15 was sprayed with Future and then matt coated after the decals were applied
all I can say is he made me an offer, I didnt give him a price, I then decide if I wnat to do it, as you can see I did, this was built with adding 3 more aircraft to the deck, possably F-18 and another F-14 but we will see
