Hi there,

 

Working a combo ; the latest bronco typeXXIII and the Trump. SSyms transportation wagon (built and primed 4or5 years ago or so). I am more working on the accessories more than on anything else. For the sub, hull was completed and cut in 3 sections : bow, center and stern.

Decided to start the stern section and i will focus on a rust paint-work.

 

The wagon will be in an almost "clean" 2 colors livery. Jigs n'stuff in one nice industrial yellow.

 

Display is part of a dry-dock made out of styrene sheets/beams and salt, on a wooden base.

 

 

Sneak peek...

 

More soon.

 

Thanks for checking in !

Hi. Had of bit of bits n'pieces.

 

I am wondering : On the hydraulic cylinder > 1 or 2 electro valves ? I mean one for the incoming pressure and one for the out-coming pressure ?

 

If you have any info feel free. Thanks  

 

 

Started a week ago and made the pics today.

Piping for all the Hydro. cylinders, and a new pressurized air bottle. Ready for the booth.

Hi,

Started the very well known Nurflügel German subject.

AM : HGW's seat-belts.

Sources : A.L. Bentley drawings (scale 1:16) the best source ever for those who know how to read a plan.

 

THE projekt :

Pushing the detailing as far as possible. 

 

Livery :

No clue. Will see later. Wood and metal..........maybe. 

 

Enough said.

 

 

 

 

The box...

 

 

Following the notice, first step is the Jumo 004  twin build. I wanted the pipe systems to be subassemblies for a better painting. I glued/blank-mounted them on the compression section. the 2 sets are glued on a spec. jig, preventing the thin pipes from braking and further on for the painting process.

 

More very soon.

 

Thanks for checking in.

 

Best, laurent.

Another great build mate ! Choices made with great taste. Beautiful and very attractive display.

 

I have built that "thing", i know lots of mojo is used into the building process.

 

Big Up !

Those tyres really have worn out. Never seen chromate legs as well, these were aluminium finished shouldn't they be?

Cees

 

They should indeed, i am going free-ride again...can't help it, i love the machines, not for what they were built for.

[1/32 HKM - B17G - WIP]

Weathered to perfection! Although if I was doing my preflight checks I'd be nervous about those tyres

 

I've never seen zinc chromate gear legs before - which aircraft/variant are you building?

 

Hi Thomas, thanks a lot ! for the tyres i surely would double-check too. But i have to stick to my storyboard...and it's a worn story-board.

Yes they are majorly silver, but here i went for a "what-if" or "artistic licensed" or "have fun" project. (again)

 

Cheers !

Laurent.

[1/32 HKM - B17G - WIP]

Thank you K.

Hi people,

 

Latest update, main gear and rear wheel are on their way to completion. One of the two is completed and now time to finish the triplets.

 

Weathering system is based on overlapping filters/washes/pigments. Bits of buffable silver "dry-brushing". Tamiya paints.
