1/18 P51C Mustang "Lopes Hope 3rd"
GusMac replied to airscale's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Stunning once again but some interesting insights into just how you manage this. Thanks -
Big congrats Harv. They look very happy together. Love the hat by the way!

Communist Russia’s Finest Passenger Service MI-4
GusMac replied to 1to1scale's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
70s pubs in Scotland had lots of tartan carpet - bet ya can't airbrush that! -
Thanks for the info Dan, I'll bear that in mind. My next planned build is some armour just to mix things up but I do love a SLUF so I may build another in the future.
-
Thanks Dan. The Olympus scheme sounds great. Where did you get the decals for that one?

Hobby Boss B-24 Liberator
GusMac replied to RAF Liberators's topic in LSM 1/32 and Larger Aircraft Ready for Inspection
Great result Gary and the Hind looks pretty cool too. Proof that no kit is 'unbuildable' and it certainly looks like a Liberator to my non-expert eyes. Weathering is nice and subtle. -
Ho229 at the Udvar-Hazy Center
GusMac replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Okay, do we just keep naming books at random until we find one you don't have?! That Kaveri one looks very cool though. -
Thanks guys. Was down in London for work so the price of a pint down there curtailed the celebrations slightly! Went to the cinema with the family today and saw the new Avengers movie then for food and beers, so good day all round.

Strange one. They're saying now it was a lightning strike then main undercarriage broke on impact and debris set the engine on fire. Funny thing is Maru everyone seems to have got out pretty unscathed or was killed. Seems to be luck of the draw depending on whether you were seated front or back. Horrible how random life can be

Seen that one mentioned many times in Neil Peart's books as he's motorcycling around Canada. At least they do some repairs, here in Scotland we've got potholes bigger than shell craters.

Ah good point! Brain not engaged. Still interested to see how you get the buckled effect. -

GusMac replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Nice, I'll be interested how you achieve the rusted rear edge to the wing/fuselage. -
Looks great Jeroen. Goes well with the antlers!

That's an interesting cammo pattern on that kid!

1/32 Revell RF-4C 14th TRS
GusMac replied to SapperSix's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Stripes! Now that is a blast from the past. Great movie with Murray and the last, great Harold Ramis. Remember many drunken evenings with my mates watching that on VHS -
What is on your bench right now ? Share a picture :)
GusMac replied to Martinnfb's topic in Modelling Discussion
I thought everything was carcinogenic in California!? Working with radioactive materials everyday you soon realise most people have a pretty poor ability to assess 'relative risk'. Simple fact is there is only one universally fatal sexually transmitted disease.... and that is LIFE! Get on and live it and do what you want coz the next bus round the corner could have your number on it. -
Well the French 'gillet jaunes' have started trying to do something about it but judging by his statement earlier this week Macron ain't listening much! You can see their point when certain corporations find £750 million to rebuild Notre Dame which gives them a 60% tax break!

Finally a Float Plane thread...lets post some pics
GusMac replied to Jeff's topic in General Discussion
I'm sorry but that first picture could lead to some highly dubious replies but I shall refrain. I'll just say that there are some cool pics here, especially that Super Cub. Good reactions Jeff! -
Can't believe you haven't knocked that armoured glass off yet. I know I would have.....

My son uses Blender a lot and does some seriously cool stuff with it. It just seems to suit the way he works especially the multi-layering. He's going to Uni later this year to do computer games design and technology so he tells his mum all the hours he spends on it are 'research'!

The Absurdity of it All. Huge airplane models.
GusMac replied to Clunkmeister's topic in Modelling Discussion
Those B-52s from Barksdale are super cool. -
I used to commute by car into Aberdeen, Scotland for many years before switching to the train and the standard of driving there is appalling. Too many morons paid too much by oil companies who think that their mobile penis enhancers give them priority over all others. Just before I switched to the train I was listening to a BBC radio show and the presenter was interviewing a guy who'd spent years driving articulated trucks all over the world into trouble zones to deliver aid. He'd just returned from a series of trips to Afghanistan and was talking about how they had all these additional fuel tanks and would fill right up before leaving Turkey then just roll straight through Iran without stopping for anything. Presenter finished up the interview by asking him where the worst place in the world was to drive and without hesitation he said, 'Aberdeen'. I almost drove off the road laughing!

Yep, I'll go with whatever superlative Hubert came up with as well! -

Crap, I was hoping just to hold out for the two-seater but the Greek 239 bird is sooo cool. Ah well, it's only money!- 82 replies
