WnW DH9.a Ninak
JeroenPeters replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
My name is Jeroen Peters and I'm a user of CA accelerator. One thing I've noticed though is that the bond is stronger without the accelerator. The accelerator makes it britle. -

I think we can safely assume the EZ has no connotation to the word Easy. -
Polikarpov I-16 without paint
JeroenPeters replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
I sure does! Like it flew out of a cartoon Felt like spraying the pit but noticed I hadn't glued any PE in there yet. So quickly did that and started painting the IP. Full speed ahead!- 69 replies

I know this forum is getting big when I have to scroll and search for my own topics Here's some proof the Ninak did not stall. Some rigging done: -

Polikarpov I-16 without paint
JeroenPeters replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Hi Cees, Set... and taking shape. The nose has been cut off. The gun fairings have been cut out. And the forward lower wing fairing has been removed with brute force. Resin sidewalls in place. Doors cut out (these will feature PE open doors). In reality the cowling slitted over the forward fuselage and that feature is nicely replicated in resin. Very thin. And yes... this baby will have skids.- 69 replies

Hi Johann, Just finished downloading both books. Really cool and much appreciated. I just got a pop up window with a naked lady but I'm not complaining Thanks again. Especially the drawings in the first book are welcome. They show me how the wood panels turn around the fuselage.- 69 replies

Hi Johann, Thank you so much for this info! All small pieces of info are welcome, but you're bringing it by the truckloads! And, on top of that, I found a f*ckbuddy when trying to download the pdf Love your signature banner too. Cheers, Jeroen- 69 replies

Hi Grant, the misses said it was alright. As long as I clean up after me I did some rigorous rigging on the Ninak today, but after one glass of wine I switch to the more... well... crude chopping on the I-16. This is the page I'm using as a reference by the way. Bookmarked it years ago for a day like this... http://vvs.hobbyvista.com/Modeling/Polikarpov/I-16/Type5/Azur/FullBuild/Sekularac/- 69 replies

Hackin' away! Almost half of the fuselage has been cut away. Making room for resin. Not a terribly good fit and poor instructions, but I'll get there...- 69 replies

Polikarpov I-16 without paint
JeroenPeters replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Today my Vector Resin full engine and engine bay/cowling arrived. Just beautiful chuncks of lovely resin... I already had a Vector engine for this kit, but that is useless unless: - you're content with having a resin engine of 20+ euro's only to be seen through the small cowling louvres, - or you're willing to scratch the entire mounting frame and cowling panels. The wood grain decals are on their way. James taught me a great trick. Drop them in Cava instead of water. I brings out a richness. He discovered this by accident I have to add. Cheers!

Hi guys, Even though rigging the Dh9a is a lot of fun I started thinking of my next project. This will be the Special Hobby I-16. But without paint. Showing the materials it was made off. Wood, linen, aluminium and putty. I'm using: • Fab Resin wheels • Renaissance model resin cockpit • Vector resin engine and cowling (full engine set) This is what I found online so far: If anyone has any info.... please share! What i still need to get is the Renaissance models ailerons and rudder set. And some Uschi wood grain decals ofcourse! Cheers, Jeroen

1/32 Revell Beaufighter TF X conversion
JeroenPeters replied to Wingco57's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Wow! Tight stuff Cees! So did you end up spraying the surfacer?? Love the porcupine exhausts. -
So can we assume there is detail missing from the Tamiya prop? The brass strip should actually be raised detail. I guess you could chip paint a little on the strip. Here's a pic I snatched from Derek:

Wow... that's great in-depth research. Thanks for sharing! I use oven cleaner to totally clean up gun stocks. It pulls the dark grease right out of them. For cleaning acrylic paint of a model I use car windshield fluid. By far not as strong as what you use, but all I dared to use

WnW DH9.a Ninak
JeroenPeters replied to JeroenPeters's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
This build is keeping me on my toes. Small slow steps and I keep checkin my references. There are a couple of subtle changes between various scheme's. I'm putting the struts and top wing on. Ready for rigging... Since I live about 5 km from the Aviation Mega Store I go there almost every weekend. Just like Cees. And Rick Martens before he moved to ze German border Here's a pic: Oh and those boxes in front are the HPH Catalina... -
Aaahh! Refreshing to see a B between all the D's! Good job on the rivets. Don't you just love those J Rutman instructions?

Hi Rick, So that's your new cave! Can't wait to drop in on a visit. Again. Very pleased to have you here!
