RFM Panzer IV Ausf H (Early)
KevinM replied to Bomber_County's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
I P/U the early Tiger with full interior looks a beast of a model I don't do much in vehicles but they do make a nice diversion.I will be watching to see how a RFM goes together. -
All I can say is "Nice!"

Just very poor in part placement Nice kit extra research was required.This kits instructions on the gear sent me to the books for the tubing forward of the main legs then one part did not look the same at all to what was pictured I give these instructions a B-. Kevin -

Not alot to show just sub-assemblies I also have the engines painted black only ATTM.The straps on the tanks black/silver?This is one tight fitting kit so much almost scares you and you have to look at the instructions more than twice been lucky to back out more than once.Have you ever heard the story of the Dragon instructions for the Scharnhorst..............? -

Thanks Kai but I need not have worried about the MK IX bombsight I was wondering why it was still present a member on another board informed me it would of been removed.The bombsight does make the front office look complete the pit is in the housing and the tail was assembled last night to which the gear around the tailwheel........?The instructions could still need a little more work or I am to simple of a man Kevin -

The copit is basically finished I did make the frames for the back of the seat on the radio operator.I just took some .020" square stryene put needle nose to the stryene and channel locks to the needle nose and got a flat spot then cut the angles to the back of the seat worked well.I am not reaL fond of the pilots belts but think the radio seat looks a little more animated.The bomb sight was the last thing I did tonight it was testing the patience. The whole copit tub slides on rails into the forward fuse area snug as a bug. Kevin- 46 replies

HK's 1/32 Mosquito-Finished
KevinM replied to KevinM's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Well got something done scratch and mods really slow me down hence the reason for most builds as OOB.I was informed by a member on another board no cushions on the pilot seat seeing they sat on there parachutes so I decided to remove them all went better than anticipated.He also stated the stand was good possibility he actually is working on a rebuild of one in Canada.I am now working on the L/side of the pit with that tricky little quadrant box un-hun once I get the fuse buttoned up should go a little quicker till I get to an engine.

I have been working on this one over the last month pretty much OOB with a couple of do-dads thrown in.I painted the plane semi-gloss black,SNJ Al,light coat of light green then Japanese Army Green with light grey on the bottom.The intention was to chip heavily but the second plane in a row it was a no-go it's the semi-gloss it's to grainy lesson learned.I still think it came out pretty nice maybe a little to glossy for a new Japanese crate but it's time to focus on the Mossie.Thanks for looking Kevin

Well I cut off the pedals once I built the PE ones not to bad don't play with the PE like I use too.I have also started black basing the interior with some semi-gloss black enamel.I have a couple things I am looking to add to the pit area thing that are readily seen around the radio equipment a pic of what I will try to replicate from another build which HK did not do the tower.I am hoping get the IP front done and contemplating about doing the wires out back be a first for me.I would like to do more in the nose but one needs to split the front not so good at that kind of surgery but sure opens up your options??
