1/48 EE Lightning ...how to make at patchwork quilt
CANicoll replied to PanzerWomble's topic in The Great Twins Broup Bluild
PW, the finish really is amazing. Nice work! -
Peter, Happy birthday my friend! I was trying to look back to when we first met, but I think that was well neigh 15 years ago at the other place? So good to have met you and enjoy watching and learning from your excellent work. I really enjoy your builds, and your latest foray into the railroad buildings is just fun to watch. Many happy returns!

Rob, the sand effect is very cool and I'll have to keep that in mind. But despite the problems with the hairspray, I think your plan B looks AWESOME. The Metal looks perfectly worn. Also like what you did with the clear window - not sure I would have thought about using Tamiya Extra Thin like that but perfect effect. I was wondering if the glass would have been penetrated? Regardless, the total effect is terrific. You have a real talent. Love the look.

Thanks for posting, Maru. Maybe see you there next year. Coming over for Nats anytime soon?

Thanks Carl! I think this needs to go into a pinned 'Hits and Tips' thread for posterity.- 17 replies

And this is "An update but nothing spectacular to show"??? OMG, I don't get half this much done on a complete build!! Your work is amazing to follow and is far beyond my simple capabilities. But fun to watch.

I think I see F-4 intakes, and perhaps some tank spindle bits? I'm with Scott. I'd lose what little is left of my mind. Heck I can't keep ONE kit organized! -

Nice job!! I have never heard of using thinner as a decal softener, but the results are fantastic. These panels look amazing, without the cost of a 3D Printed set. Beautiful. Following along and you may force me to get my ZM F-4C out of the closet....- 17 replies

Nice work! What did you use for the formation light on the tail? Is that a decal, Eduard PE or something else? Thanks!

B-17G "American Beauty" Part 1
CANicoll replied to Rod Bettencourt's topic in LSM 1/48 Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Rod, Beautiful job on an impressive kit. Love the B-17G but have only built the Monogram/ProModeller kits. Your finish and weathering are top-notch - well done. But your photography really pulls in the subject. Looking forward to more pictures. -
Awesome work! Love the details and the story and seeing how you stage something, then get it painted and set in place. Fantastic work and great to be able to follow along. Thanks for sharing!

Martin, That looks awesome!! Nice work on the weathering. -
I have the RB Productions metal Wood airbrush stencil set as well as the plastic AK flexible airbrush stencils - just have not used either of them yet... I would think you would have to be careful to lift the stencil straight up to avoid smudging the paint? I go through a lot of low-tack home DIY tape when I'm masking camo lines. Inexpensive and comes in big rolls.

Somehow or another I've stumbled across Propeller 77 and their product line of stencils and work bench accessories. Has anyone used their stencils? Check out here and here. They also have some paint and glue holders. The stencils look very interesting, especially the squiggly line one for Luftwaffe planes. Any thoughts? Thanks! Chris
