  1. Hi Erik, Yes. I believe (from memory) there are only cables connected from the control column to the underside of the wings. No cables run upwards. The cables on top (running over the small wheel) provide the opposing forces. Now stop drawing! and build..
  2. Now i know why you never finish anything. You draw them first! Geeeeeezzzz..
  3. Just blown away at the quality you put into this model. Dare i ask what's next? Cheers, Jeroen
  4. Wow! So now i know where these weld beads come from i saw in a finished build. Amazing stuff. Clean and crisp. Great review. Cheers, Jeroen
  5. Yes! That 'Do not turn' is just too cool. Love it! Are you going to flatten the tires a little?? Cheers, Jeroen
  6. Thnx guys, I have an amazing figure as is, but I'm always open to suggestions!
  7. Nope. Parking it under the wing of the Snipe. I can see it now... Aaaaahhhh...
  8. Cees, If the kit disappoints, I'm taking you out for Indian!
  9. Thnx Grant, Just finished the stand. I broke the resin one, so I fixed it with plastic rod. Also made some holes for the hinges, so it can actually fold in and out. Lets see how long it takes me to break this one...
  10. Hi Dave, You're right, but the fit is soo good, you can insert the spoke disc. position and then glue. Here's the front wheel with the same copper tube axle. As soon as i glue the front fork to the frame the main components are done. Then it's on to smaller irrelevant details like the steering handles
  11. I'm sure I haven't asked already, but what scheme are you doing?
  12. Hi there, I'm guessing you're missing the anti slip surface. I would mask the areas off.The use mr surfacer and use a stump brush and tampon the texture in. That's the way. Cheers, Jeroen
  13. Yup! I love indian food and don't mind the Burning Ring of Fire the day after. Just checked: my 163 has shipped! Bring it to papa!
  14. THis looks promising indeed! Mk108 baby! (I ordered one too)
  15. Thnx Guys, I must say it's photo's like this: and this: that really do it for me... May mean I need to get the resin Verlinden shells too....
  16. Wow! That's really nice. Another Need-to-have for the already amazing WnW kit...
  17. I'll have an Ohka instead. Will look nice next to my Reichenberg!
  18. That looks great. Are those weld beads on the model?? Or did you make them yourself? Cheers, Jeroen
  19. Hi Nick, You are right. I have only on a few occasions seen well weathered and painted 1/16 vehicles. Fun for remote control sandbox games, and oversized to display in a nice way. I'll give it my best!
  20. That's a 40 dollar Part PE set w'ere talking here! I'll think about it. Need to see some REAL nice examples on this page first. There are numerous things I have done to this kit that I would do different today. I guess that's what makes it hard to finish it. I also had the T-34/85 version but sold that. Cheers! Jeroen
  21. Hi James, They are flat, but with the axle i managed to cone them somewhat by glueing one side of the axle first, pushing it outward and then connecting the other edge of the axle.
  22. Hi Guys, With the need for more armour I pulled this from the shelf of DOOOOOMMM! I started this build maybe 10 years ago. Did the interior, engine and then lost interest. Still haven't gained quite enough interest to really pick this up, but maybe if someone posts his (or unlikely hers) rendering of this kit, I might get back into gear. The barrel is after market. Forgot what brand. 10 yrs ago and all.. So.. anyone ever finished one of these??? Cheers, Jeroen
  23. Here's a pic of the rear wheel in place. Some dry fitting and testing is required to make sure the frame aligns. After glueing it all and eyeballing it yesterday, something seemed off. The luggage carrier was in a slight angle. I took it all apart. Cleaned it up. Made small 'what do you call it' from rod and the angle of the tank and luggage carrier thing was straight. Next step will be smooting out the joints with some mr Surfacer.
