Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
That's a technique I need to practice! Never would have thought of that. What a time saver and no brush marks to boot!

What a catch
All models are equal. Some models are more equal than others.

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Coming along nicely in all cases - especially struck with La Haye. Don't forget to model the small angry farmer who threatens tourists if you're going for complete accuracy

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Looks good Nigel!
I'll be interested to see this cunning plan to mask the glazing on the 111. I've been wanting to do one myself, but have shied away from it because of that very reason.

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Easy enough to do with a brush and a sharp cocktail stick, not something I'd like to try with an airbrush!
They both look great Nigel!

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
keep up the good work
...yeah, I shy away from planes with lots of canopy framing, too!
For example, I´d like to do an Aichi D3A Val, but just remembering those canopy frames, makes me leave her in the stash pile

Waiting for the day, when wars for territory will be something to be read about in history books only.

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Haven't given the glazing a go yet. Got the lower wing decals on
And the second colour goes on the top of the 109
Hard to see but it is on there A second coat tomorrow should have it finished. I'll do the fuselage mottling using the sponge dabbing technique. The next victim appears on the bench
First stages of construction. Just the cockpit and instrument panel glued to one half

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Nice one, Nigel, that Gustav is coming together nicely. Mottling 1/72nd Luftwaffe fighters is not one of life's great pleasures IMHO - instead of airbrush, sponge or paint brush, I usually use the avoidance technique when it comes to mottling in scales under 1/48th and it's very easy to do, saves hours in fact
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Re: Clashcityrockers Stage
Looking good Nigel. Strange but having seen your latest work it reminded me of the film Dunkirk. If you haven't seen it yet Nigel I would highly recommend it especially the Imax version. Anyway keep up the great work mate.
Cheers
Ian
