A Sleek lil so n so

Looking good !! Looks light years ahead of the old Tamiya clonk .

Absolutely superb , on Apple TV .

Absolutely cracking pony that one !👍👍

Break out the scourges !

Can you imagine how insane it would be, to be inside a metal bell when the cannon fires.

Is this going to have the crazy Swedish Splinter scheme ....talking of masochism ?

Nice one , if you ever get to France , maybe look up La Coupole in Normandy , it was V2 underground Factory & Launch site , never went /live, but scary stuff. Link

Excellent. , and Martin will put me up to save on the hotel ? Awesome offer will be on skyscanner today 😄 I’ll bring a few mates as well

I built this few years back , the engine covers are a small challenge to ahve closed as it's designed to all hang open . The Arado is apparently similar . If you want them shut it's just a matter of shaving the cylinder heads. It's not a particularly hard job TBh , just trim them back below the line of the circular support . Rest went together fine . ....& I know Prillers wasn't an A8

TBH I'm not convinced by black primer on models , in 1:1 car/bike painting I was taught to use white or at a push, grey primer for silver/ metallics . I've got some Alcad Gloss Black which I chose not to use this time around. It seems to more a modelling thang. I'm down to hand tinting individual access panels at the moment ...for the love of Pete .... 🙄

Impressive scenery! You just don’t get that in the UK

More than likely . It's just a thought , if you don't try something new you never progress I feel ? Last time I built this , I was deeply unhappy with the lack of effect I achieved using the traditional "build it then paint it" method , so it's a shot to nothing in some ways . Small progress today .....20g of lead shot in the nose , jet pipes coming together. Used flory wash for the soot in the cans , though jack all of this is visible one in place hence not loosing sleep over those ejection pin marks

If you can hack it ....I can recommend yoga is a great way to keep from seizing up . I did it a lot when i was driving 50k miles a year and used to cry on climbing out of the car. ....although you have to pick an age appropriate group to avoid being the only middle aged man in a group of 20 something yummy mummies. Unless thats your thing .....🥷

Looking really good !!

Nice call , I'm going to have to watch the film now 😀 I've done dioramas before trying to match newsreel or stills ....it drove me nutty , so I tend to do "inspired by" rather than try to match blade of grass for blade of grass anymore🙄 I don't know what i was thinking some years .!

Pretty bombas. Is the aircraft ready for take off yet ?

Insanity x2 as ever, but wonderful work and research Jeroen .

I'm guessing this is all modelling in one hand and watching the screen next to you for the reference pics ?

Looking great. Might need to watch the Madalorian again .

I love this sort of work , fictional but 100% plausible . You're making the blends look far easier than I suspect they are . 👍

I'm making this all up as I go along , just reckon masking two flat sides is easier than one round , based on the Mig 21 and Sabre Dog I did in 2021 . The top spine of the aircraft is all black on the final paint job, so easy ish to fix / fill / paint . The vert stabiliser will be painted and just slot in The belly is a bit harder but again , just some ....rather than lots of masking . The fit on this thing is reasonable , it's no Tamiya , but it doesn't require a shed of filler. Also it's pretty low parts count so not too fiddly. Tremblers ....maybe its that lightning flash but still the sexiest theme to be seen in.
