colt6 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 @Mike: yea, doing a crash dio is just fun. You have the freedom to do nearly everithing, especially weathering wich I start to love. In this case I have the luck, that I got pictures from all around the plane, or is that bad?!? @Grant: My first water attempt was with the Faller stuff, then I tought I will give Vallejo a try. Main "problem" with both are the shrinking, I had to reapeat the pit 4-5 times. But hey, my experience is so small and for shure I will use the still water on the ground, when I build the base on the Dio and then I can say more.

Cpt_Farrel Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sorry for the confusion, I meant that 66 could be the darker upper color instead of 74, not to mix 66 with the 75. When I read my previous post I realise it could be interpreted like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngtiger1 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 No that's good that you got pictures of this very subject in different view. I'm starting to look for similar photos and hopefully I'll get lucky Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt6 Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Start to throw all the bits and parts into the body And try how it would look on the frame. What you think: this frame is not to small? Arno 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonathanReed Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Looking Fantastic. Many of you may remember the old diorama of the wrecked B-17 that slid off the side of the runway and lost the gear.? I was little lad and already loved airplanes, but looking at that model and the story, no, stories that it told grabbed me into the great world of modelling! This one should inspire many more people to come. So Cool! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphSarc Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I agree with Johnathan! Your craftsmanship is inspiring to say the least Arno as it does inspire me to challenge myself with each build! You nailed the prop right down to the boot dents!! By the way how did you do the dents?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clashcityrocker Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Yeah this is awesome! I'm building a crashed and abandoned 109 myself and would love to know how you got those good dents in the prop. Great work! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt6 Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 Thanks for the nice word's! The dents are just made with a heat gun and a round tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt6 Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 As I was never really happy with my bended alu on the frame, I made the panel new. It's not perfect, but I think much better. Final result we will see after a little putty and primer. Arno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
