Title: AXU's whif models
Post by: AXOR on December 29, 2011, 07:57:59 PM: Hi all
First I'll present M-IL-32.It's made from Easy Model MiG-3,some parts of IL-2 and scratch. To simulate jet engines I used parts of a pen,not so realistic but works for me.

Messerschmitt Bf-109 G6 early,1/72 HobbyBoss,not so impressive but it was interesting to imagine a different camo for Romanian Bf's

Hurricane Mk II from Hobby Boss 1/72 called Hurri-C-LanceR...
I was inspired by the camo of the romanian MIG 21 Lancer-C

Cheers,

Are you kidding? The camo scheme/paint job is extremely impressive. Hand or airbrush?

I don't have an airbrush (yet),so all my models are hand painted.

Never thought of pen parts. Am filing that in my mental list of possibilities.

Post by: finsrin on December 30, 2011, 07:11:55 PM: Question -- does anyone else get mental flashes of the movie "Sky Captian and the World of Tomorrow" when you look at M-IL-32 ?
Title: Re: AXU's whif models
Post by: AXOR on December 30, 2011, 07:26:40 PM: Is not the first time when someone says that,however,the movie was not my source of inspiration.
After I finished the IL-2 Starfighter, with the remaining pieces had to do something ... and I did.

Post by: Stargazer2006 on January 06, 2012, 04:00:18 PM: The M-IL-32 is just AMAZING. Not only the pen parts work very well but I also love the rendering you give to the paint scheme.
