  1. Nice work on the cockpit and engine Gary. I would have replaced the wires you marked with a brace by copper or lead wire. Regarding the wing it’s really a shame that all disappears under the skin. Typical of ZM-kits.
  2. Great progress and the landing gear is awesome 🤩! Amazing work Mark!
  3. Great subject Gary and I will follow your build of yellow 10 😉 closely.
  4. Just came across your build here today Rob. You really build a broad range of models: planes, cars, figures, ships…! The ship and figures are looking awesome. Great build! I never thought of building a ship. Should think it over. I just build a Mayflower from Revell when I was a young boy.
  5. Just saw this here today Gary. Great job on the MiG and the dio! The foiling is simply perfect 🤩! And the weathering of the vehicle is spot-on!
  6. Thank you all for your feedback. I’m happy that this challenge is behind me now. Now onto one of my favorites: the paintjob.
  7. The pit and the main LGB are looking great. The 104 is one of my favorites and I love the sleek look of the fuselage. First big step is completed Carl.
  8. Great looking bird so far with a beautiful shape. Good to see that you mastered all challenges up to now.
  9. The area of the wing-sweep-mechanism had to be painted and weathered in advance since it’s not possible to reach all areas of it when the covers are attached. For this job I prepared some homemade masks for the sweep-area. I used fotos as reference. Then I started replicating the grinding marks in the wing pivot area by using the masks and a photo of this area of the aircraft I build. I used „soot“ of the Tamiya weatherine set applied with a reworked brush and an eraser. Repeated this on the undersides of the wing and then glued the covers in place. Making of the masks: Preparation for application of grinding marks: Guiding-lines applied with a pencil: That’s how they look like on the original plane: Things used for application: Applied before erasing: Finished result on the lower wings: And on the upper wings: Next step will be the priming of the rest of the plane.
  10. Awesome looking Viggen, Mark! Can‘t wait to see her cross the finish-line!
  11. Copy Peter, Harv! All the best for you and I wish you a fast recovery and return to the modeling bench!
  12. Great build so far Peter and I’m sure you will manage to overcome all obstacles on the way to your next beauty.
