Spitfire Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Looks good, a suitably weathered finish for the harsh condtions, and a bit of touch up is likely highly probable. Cheers Dennis 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 Thank you for the kind words guys. It still needs tons of work to look presentable. Should end up close to this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Dennis, it's not that bad.in my experience. At least the one I built went went together fairly well. Much better than their Hurricane. Definitely needs dry fitting though. Carl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that matter only ever built one Spit in all the years I’ve been modelling. OK the million dollar question……….in 32nd which is the best Spit irrespective of mark……..Tamiya???…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl No problem Carl, my current build theme is RAF and PCM so I have three on the go, I've just finished the Tempest and the fabric wing Hurricane is in the paint shop, so I started this one. I'm getting back to basics after three Hasegawa builds. Cheers Dennis 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Onto the bench and off in one day as the oils on my PZL dry for a while. This is part one of a strange new project, including a little dio and another kit. The Bandai AT-ST is easy to build and very detailed. There are no distortions in the plastic and I glued only some tiny parts, the rest is only snapped together and will enable to paint the kit better. There is no PE or resin included, but the main guns are bored hollow . Chewbacca will be removed and another pilot will be added later. No Ewoks were harmed through the build .

Cheers Rob I hated the Ewoks. Should do a build with an Ewok being stepped on by this thing. I found the Ewoks the ultimate insult to military men. Otherwise.... nice work! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still gonna be super awesome, but I’ll be more that happy to build 190 after I’m done with this pesky thing. Some nice work there, Martin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be careful if you use any enamel washes as they have been known to make the plastic crumble. Carl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very intriguing Martin, there are lots of cool mecha kits on the market. Kotobukiya and Bandai make a lot of them. Here's my Metal Gear Rex And GUNHED. Both are from Kotobukiya. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martinnfb Posted October 16, 2021 Author Share Posted October 16, 2021 They were sold out for quite a while. This might sound crazy, but I was thinking about using a pingpong ball as a base for the drone. Size-wise close to 1/35 scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
