  1. Sprayed the registration codes on the fender and license plates.
  2. And here’s little ol’ me
  3. Getting there! i had 2mm transparent bases cut for the bikes.
  4. Sure. With the iphone. I used the app Sapling. Perfect for scanning smaller object, but when you want to scan an entire person, you need to do it in segments since the polygon count per scan is limited.
  5. Made a new effort to scan myself and print myself in 32nd scale. The stance depicts me spotting mistakes in my own work. Should be fun...
  6. New test with different settings
  7. Tests with the masks show more laser force is needed to get rid of all the tiny fibers that now seem to block paint. Trial and error. First painting steps on the bikes.
  8. The Norton bikes need codes on the tank and license plates. I put some tape under my laser machine and managed to cut the codes! I guess now i can really cut all my masks and even stencils. Need to do a little more tweaking but almost there.
  9. Haven’t been able to do much lately, bit just lasered this small wooden base for the Norton.
  10. I've always loved the look of this huge Do335 with the US soldiers gazing at it and swarming around it like ants. For the base I used a very high res US map from 1945 that I had printed on canvas and then... cut it up. No decals were used. All masks. Lots of Eduard and Master upgrades and a Tamiya Jeep with Alpine figures. I could have gone all out on the weathering, but I didn't.
  11. Not neglecting the Norton bikes. I printed dozens and loose about 3/4 if the print botching them during cleanup. The connectors and parts are just too dekicate. I only need 2 complete and intact prints! Almost there and then ready for primer.
  12. Things are getting lined up. Be it painstakingly slow… My hands are itching to get back to some other builds, but this will be finished first!
  13. Installing the engine bearers. Still fiddling with the nose gun section in order to get the right angle. Almost there.
  14. Back from a short holiday and returned to the bench. Matt coat is on and started adding scratches and blotches. This will take a while. Also added a lighter ocean grey under the slats.
  15. The Matt coat is on and started with the AK weathering pencils. Dryfitting the nose guns, which need some alteration to sit in the proper angle. some warpage on the still to be installed barrel ends, but some boiling water will solve that.
  16. Flaps are on. The can be positioned in any angle. Pretty cool. washes almost done. Then it’s time for a flat coat.
  17. I understand. But if reference is lacking you have to use common sense. This makes sense.
  18. Another thing I was wrestling was this: How would the colour be like UNDER the extended slats? Would the camo pattern stop there? Impossible to find any photographs. The only thing I have to go by is this in game footage of the Warthunder game. You can see the green of the camo stopping there. I will change this on my model.
  19. The colours are maybe better in this light.
  20. So. A few people noticed the red upper roundel was too far inboard. I couldn’t live with it so i stripped the wing. Resprayed the camo and reapplied the roundel. Pfff. Let’s weather the heck out of this thing now!
  21. Somehow the distance between the code and the Bellows Uruguay is way bigger on my model than the reference. At least i fixed the spacing between the two words. I need to get this bird finished or it will end me!
  22. Started the panel line washes. Can’t wait for some matt finish and pencil weathering…
  23. Might as well go all out! Only needed the W/T mask for 10 decal replacements. Bought the 1manarmy mask set for the Spit mk1 for that purpose. I used one mask 10x and it’s still perfect!
