    Bug Eye Turret for the Catalina
  8. Dave J
    Looks to be good kit... but I can't get excited about it... Maybe once I start seeing some built up then my thoughts may change...

    Thats pretty below the belt indeed... Not everyone works like that, and my dealings with the guys at HPH are pretty damn good as I am currently offering them information and a master for nothing.

    I still Squirm at the price.... But that will change once I have the kit in my hands!
  11. Dave J
    Trust me I know about it!
  12. Dave J
    I want!!! But have the Catalina inbound sometime soon... So I'm going to have to wait!

    Wheels and Prop are now fitted... I just need to add some chipping to the prop, but I need to find a brown coloured pencil and the kids are asleep so I can't go raiding their bedroom! Added a bit more chipping to the port wing root with a silver pencil. I removed the Canopy masks and something has ran underneath and marked them.. I am going to have a try of saving them, but I think I will be trying to get some parts from Tamiya... Lamps and weathering done on the underside, Oil streaking was done with AK Interactive Engine Grime and dust with AK Pigments..

    They are way better than the hobby boss wheels...
  15. Dave J
    Well what ever it is... I can't wait!
  16. Dave J
    I have only used the Fuel Stains and Oil Grime for streaking so far... I was happy with the results... I will have more of a play on the 16th Tiger I think.

    Cheers Grant! The AK Interactive stuff is still new to me too.. But the couple of times that I have used it, results are great! You would need a good protective gloss coat you should be fine to remove it with some thinners or white sprits if you cock up.. I have been applying all the stuff with brushes and removing them by blotting a paper towel or a brush dipped in some thinner to get the required result..

    Got a little more done last night.. Touched up that Starboard wing root... Looks way better now. I have weathered it bit more with some AK Pigments.. which tone down the Camo scheme quite a bit.. Anntenna and Landing Struts fitted! Just need to paint the tyres, Cockpit door and added some fuel/oil/dust weathering and I could call it done!

    Beautiful! When my 6 Tamiya Mustangs decide to grow up... I hope they turn out as well as yours! So the next question... Whats next?
  20. Dave J
    Fantastic Franck! Is that an article for Air Modeller?
  21. Dave J
    You would need Lacquer. I have only tinted the mixture by using the Tamiya Rattle can stuff.
  22. Dave J
    Yea I saw that one too... That was the one that I was going to do... But its a early MIG 3 and the Trumpeter kit is an late... Montex did do an conversion set, but I tried to locate one but didn't have any luck!

    After being impressed with the AK Interactive stuff on the Bf109F build, I used it once again on the spit. I used the Africa Korps Filter and Dust effects on the upper surfaces and the Salt Streaks from the Naval range on the lower surface. Using Chainmail from the Citadel range, I dry brushed the wear in the wing roots... I'm happy with the port side... but not so with the Starboard side... I going to have touch it up...It looks good in the photo, but not in person....
  24. Dave J
    I just posted some pics and didn't have any issues...

    Time for another update... Over the last couple of days I have applied another gloss cost to seal the decals in and given it a oil wash to start fading the panels.
