Slants are readily available in kits (I know I've build and traded off several) But besides that, did you build this one yet ?

A little time has passed so I decided to put on some winter camouflage

Just keep in mind, your printer does not print white (it leaves that open) so if you want white, you need to iether print it on white decal paper, or paint a spot of white on the truck, and use clear decals over it And be sure to get the right paper for your printer (inkjet or laser)

did you make the trunk open? (i never seen that line like that on a model) what scale am i looking at, 1:25?

It's funny, there wasn't a whole lot of focus on the US in history class back then They never mentioned 1776, or the Gettysburg adress, but they honed in quite well on your activities between 1940 and 1945 Back to the plane I'm not totally happy with it, but it's starting to look like...

If he's still around, tell him I said thanks! In case you are familiar with operation "market garden" I was born and spend the first 20 years of my live in that corridor (In fact, when I moved to the US 20 years ago, the locals still called it that) Now, I speak a little German, and I don't...

Found a few moments to put the second coat one I'm not happy with the overspray, but hopefully that will clear up when I try to weather it

I was able to lay down the first coat of my top camouflage I was going to go with Grey, but for some reason I ended up grabbing "mud brown" instead I'll put some green over it in a splinter pattern and put some of the green mottling on as well (I'll draw some more in with a brush, but so far...

that one will do just fine it looks like it has the swastikas i was hoping for, as well as the distinctives on the nose (not sure what they were called) ill PM you my address thanks ! and yes, the kit is horrible the two halves of the fuselage no where near lined up, i probable sanded a...

Me and the boy spend some time working on our models yesterday (he's building one of the hanomag half tracks aswell) and I got to work on the beamer I still need a few more coats on the rider, but he was able to pick his date up for prom nite

I appreciate you looking for me

Got the primer down, and the yellow (Not sure about the yellow yet)

funny you mention that about a decade ago, when i was doing a lot more moddeling, i actually used to make my own decals, and do some custom work for a small fee i had sheets that were made for my printer, i would just download the image i needed, scale it and print it on the paper, then after...

that would be great, O scale is about the same as 1:48 the tail panel it would go on is a little under 1/2 by 1/2 so i think anywhere between 1/4 by 1/4 and 3/16 by 3/16 should do the trick awesome the kit is the starfix BF 109 (the box says E, but the instructions claim G-6 fact of the...

I figured that would catch your attention I always loved the looks of the German messerschmitt 109s, and especially the paint on them With a little time on my hands I bought a couple a 1/48 kits of these that will go together in a few hours (I think it's a 28 piece kit) The decals are...

.not displeased with the color, but I had a terrible time getting it to flow through the airbrush I got to figure out if i want to just brush the hull, or what

Got two coats of white primer on...allready seems to pop nicely

Got the bottom primed, and a make shift paint stand made for the top I'm planning on doing one of those fancy 2 tone primer jobs on the top, base primer in white, shadows in black primer and then hopefully that will give some depth to the topcoat and make the detailing easier

Got her just about ready for primer (This will be an interesting primer, the bottom will be Grey rattlecanned, the top will be airbrushed white primer) The only parts not glued on are the guns, life preservers and raft

Thanks That one is twice as big as the one I'm building and has a ton more detail, but it's pretty cool for comparison

i may have to go with green...thats the color the wife thought looked best and to be honest, i kinda feel like grey is german, green is good guys but i really like Yunicks suggestion

that is pretty cool the one im building is maybe 16 inches? way less detailed, but im hoping to do a nice weathering job on it, so we will see how it comes out im really on the fence what color to paint it, here are two examples, what do you guys think ?

Thought these fresh air vents needed a little attention as well

Ran into a little issue It appears this kit was offered as a battery powered boat at some point and there are 2 holes in the deck which must pertain to that Iether way, I had to find a way to fix it (wish I had noticed it before I put the deck on the hull, but im happy with it) On the side...

well, the real reason is, i never seen McHale's navy (i had to google what the significance of PT-73 was) but a better reason is, from what i found when i googled it, the PT-73 used in the show was a 72 foot type II vosper, while the real PT-73 was a 78 foot Higgings...neither one is the exact...

I know, I ain't finished any of the other ones I started yet But my parents were visiting and we stopped by hobby lobby and picked up this little PT-109 The main reason I picked it up was because I build one back when I was younger and I thought it be fun to see what I can so with it now...

I've shot nail polish through an airbrush before, great results, but boy does that put an odor in the air

I tried it back in my car model days but never could get a finish that was good enough to make the switch from rattle can clear to pledge

That's cool, I love extra like that (Seems a lot of kits came with dirtbikes) Did the snowmobile get build first ?

I missed it several times aswell, post #5, twister No idea who made it though
