Can't decide which I like best, HS125 or Winjeel, but  they are all great.

Nice Bronco :) :)

I used to work on RAN UH-1B/Cs and Oz ARMY UH-1Hs. A2-384 is a RAAF UH-1B not a UH-1D/H. She's on display at Point Cook still in RAAF green and white colour scheme.  :)

Having just finished using the front half of a Bronco fuselage, I can't express how impressed I am with how yours finished up. Is it the 1/72 Academy version? I think mine was.

You really did a bang up job on that greenhouse! The cool desert camo is the icing on top and most excellently rendered.

Post by: ScranJ51 on July 01, 2016, 02:37:08 PM

Yes - 1/72nd Academy.

The greenhouse was the PITS!  Took me 4 or 5 goes to get it right.

Some other recent (like - TODAY) completions.  Note YET to paint the Hurricane Canopy.  both 1/72nd

I'm not too worried about the minor flaws in the paint coverage (2nd coat) on the Gladiator as it gives a bit of a üsed"look

That Gladiator is very well done! You managed to overcome one of the hobby's Great Challenges, the Dreaded All Silver Scheme. I can only tip my hat to such nice brush-work!

That Night Hurricane is most eye-catching! I bet that baby would turn a lot of heads on any display table!

Esci or Hobbycraft 1/72 V-22 kit or early version of the Testors/Italieri kit in 1/72 or 1/48?  Beautifully done, but it's clearly got the prototype nacelles, not the production ones and lacks a few other features of the production V-22.

Title: Re: Some updates
Post by: ScranJ51 on July 09, 2016, 12:56:11 PM

Esci 1/72nd kit.

Not a good fit on the cockpit and fuselage - pain in the ass to build really.  Glad it's done (and not my best work I will admit)

I really like your Burmese P-40! That camo scheme reminds me of the one Finland used and sure looks sharp!

Looks good to me.  You really should try the Hasegawa kits of the V-22, very accurate (I can spot things, I'm a design engineer on the V-22) and initial fit-ups look good.
