Small Scale Military Headquarters

My question is, what's the huge wooden structure under the 262? There is also some burnt wood, but it appears in front of the intake, not at the back (where you would expect burning). Maybe it was another act of sabotage at the assembly plant. "Hey, lets just bolt the entire airplane backwards". Cou...

Hey bud. You might wanna take note of the giant red banner above ^.

Seeing as this is my first print out, there was a couple of points that came up (Grun...

Interesting Model. I just saw an ad for a 1/35 scale one in an Afrika Korps Scheme. If you can get hold of some masking tape, you could try masking that top canvas section off and giving it another coat (just to crisp up the edges). If you've never tried applying a wash, you should give it a go! Wil...

Currently Friday morning here in NZ.
The Kit should be at home when I get back from work.
I'll post some pics this weekend.

I've noticed that every now and then this website doesn't load, and it comes back with a "SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]" page.
It only happens with this site (other sites load fine).
Could be something, could be nothing.

Hey Rudedog. I've just ordered a set and they should arrive in NZ by the 28th of this month.

Hey Rudedog, to be honest I haven't done anything since my last post. The wheel kits are ready to go, but the hold up is my current finances ( :roll: ). I've only just returned to work after 5 weeks holiday which has also been reflected in my bank account. I also just checked and the cost of shippin...

Currently working on these replacement wheels for the 21st Corsair. They are more correct in their thickness (as accurate as the original drawings I measured off). These will screw straight into the current struts using the existing screws. I originally did these, as my current Corsair's landing gea...

Pfeil, for photos, you have to use a website like Photobucket or Webshots (there are others, just google "photo hosting"). We cannot upload photos directly from a hard drive onto this website, so a photo hosting site will act as a "middle man". You just upload your photos to the photo hosting site, ...

I'm definitely interested in getting one. I now have three models which I want to add to the collection: Tomcat, Dauntless and now this Huey. Only factors are money (Especially because of the shipping rates there days). Edit............Oh, and the upcoming 190A.....man, I better start a savings acco...

HPH?

......................or you could just fill all the engraved panel lines, paint the model, and then just draw in the lines with a fine pencil.

It's my own idea of using pencil led. Ahh! I was wondering why the edges of the panels were dark, but not the actual indented lines themselves. While I do like bringing out the panel lines, you guys are right about the lines usually being too deep and wide. Making the lines over exaggerated. If you...

.......I was thinking it could do with a "wash" to bring out the panel lines. Not a black wash, but a grey tone to just bring the lines out a bit more perhaps.

HEY!
Nah, all good Nev. I did see it but was a bit to rich for my blood at the moment. You'll have to show me, if we have another catchup. Looks pretty cool though!

Nice to have you here Pitbull.

Whoa, that A Wing is awesome. Is that the Walmart exclusive? We hardly see stuff like that down here.

You don't have any Kubel's coming up by any chance?

PM sent.

Oh darn it, late to the party again! If you have any other Kubel's coming up Flyboy, I'd be interested in one.

Nice work there! Did you make the "Dads Army" figures yourself?

PM sent.

Is the comet coming from Merit? They were talking about another 1/18th release following the Dauntless.

Hey Axis, How is the forward facing landing gear door fixed?
I gather it's obviously not fixed directly to the gear strut because the gear swings though 90 degrees as it goes up/down.
Is the door attached in such a way, to allow the strut to rotate around a collar or something?
