1:32nd scale Junkers D.I
HubertB replied to sandbagger's topic in WW1 1/48 and larger Ready for Inspection
I almost missed the start of your WIP thread before seeing it here ! You’re definitely a fast builder, Mike, and the result is, per your usual, stunning Hubert -
I was about to argue the same. If the goal is broad coverage, the cheap knockoffs you find on EBay and other sites are good enough in most cases. Hubert

Mengnut Wings Fokker Dr. 1
HubertB replied to Wolf Buddee's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Now that you have mastered the vocabulary of rigging, chapter and verse, how about a DH-2 or RE-8 ? Stunning result with the DR-1 is the other well deserved expletive ! Hubert -
Not being as smart as a certain LSP member, I found myself started on the Silhouette with less than an afternoon’s learning curve (and the task was to enlarge to 1/32 and make masks from the pic of 1/48 decals for a North Korean Mig 15 for Martin ) I later found out that, if you are using another CAD software, then the (for extra $) « pro » Silhouette software, that allows the import of vector files is a great plus. In short, never regretted this buy Hubert

Gottfreid Weiroster Bf 109G6 R6 Revell 1/32
HubertB replied to GazzaS's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
If you google Marion Ball, you'll see some of her techniques / advice on-line. IIRC, she talks about a 10:90 dilution for painting acrylics. She says that, as it dries fast, she can build up the layers quickly. HTH Hubert PS: there is also Kiril Kanaev's amazingly good (that is an understatement, believe me) - but probably expensive when shipped down under - book, sold on AK / MIG's website -
Gottfreid Weiroster Bf 109G6 R6 Revell 1/32
HubertB replied to GazzaS's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Your figure is hundred times better than what I could achieve. From what I read from the experts like Marion Ball, the secret with acrylics is to use multiple very diluted layers to achieve the same blending effect as with oils. Keep going. You’ll prevail on that pig of a kit in the end. Hubert -

Many here know my obsession interest in civilian subjects, and requests wishes to see more of them kitted. So this is my private moment to praise the initiative of a manufacturer, who just announced that preorders are open for their new 1/32 baby: The De Havilland DH 90 Dragonfly ! For those of you who don’t know it, the Dragonfly was the small brother of the DH 89 Dragon Rapide, aimed at the private / executive market. If you think the Dragon Rapide lines were beautiful, then wait until you have seen the Dragonfly : the epitome of British flying sexiness ! Well done Lukasj ! I hope you will get plenty of orders for this one (mine’s already passed), especially as the price, for a short-run resin kit with this level of details, seems reasonable enough. https://lukgraph.pl/en_GB/p/De-Havilland-DH.90-Dragonfly-132-PREORDER/182 Come on guys, join me to relish on the Dark Side Hubert

Agree with you, Wolf. Andy’s build shows an inordinate amount of fitting issues and design flaws. On the other hand, HPH kits are notoriously the opposite of Tamiya when it comes to fitting and eas of build, and Infinity is just an injection-molded plastic version of HPH … Don’t get me wrong. I am not an « HPH-basher ». HPH at least have the guts of going where Tamiya will never be spotted (which is why I have plenty of HPH kits, and only one Tamiya kit, in my stash ) Hubert

Short Sunderland MkII
HubertB replied to ThomasProbert's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Based on my own experience, Engines n’ Things products are on par with SAC « metal » landing gears, i.e. an even better opportunity to waste money than a night in a Vegas casino … On the other hand, Vector do a great Pegasus, although the budget for 4 could become steep … Hubert -
