AlanG Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Well my first ever attempt at face painting. It's not quite Freddie Kruger but it also isn't Richard Gere 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 That looks great Alan. I'm going to have to do some figures at some point myself. Carl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I started on the Takom PzIII. Turns out the hull is slightly warped so the wheels don't sit flat. So.... I'm back to working on the B-24. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanG Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Well apart from the head being blu-tac'd on. This figure is done. I haven't added the dust to the boots or bottom of the trousers yet as i'll do that when i've finished the other figures. Quite chuffed with how this turned out. Not bad for my first ever figure 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I opened about 4 or 5 kits before I had settled on the PzIII then looked at the turrets when I noticed the warp. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swap heads are required for the function. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Carl Nice to see you're going back to work on the B-24. Is Takom going to replace the warped turret? Sure hope so. Keep 'em comin Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 After two weeks of working in my cave / workshop, where I started with wood protection on the ceiling, continued with painting the walls and finally repainted the floor, I'm more than ready to start something new. There was the 1/20 McLaren MP4/2 from Aoshima, the Minerva armored car from CSM, the Gloster Gladiator from ICM or the WNW AEG G.IV. BUT I decided to start something different. I picked the inviting box of my Vanguard kit of the Duchess of Kingston from the shelf, and like always, when I opened the box, felt the immediat urge to start building. I played a bit with the mdf parts, installed my sander onto the bench and if I stay with the kit, I will start a WIP, where I hope to receive a lot of input from you about this relatively new territory for me.

Peterpools Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Rob Go for it ... something so very different and the end result will be a gorgeous display model and a build we will all learn from. So glad you finished redoing/upgrading your workshop and it helps fire up the juices. We're still in the middle of our home renovation but my studio/hobby room is done as well as the main bathroom. I'm hoping to start a new build soon but painting will be an issue as dust seems to be a main product of the renovation. Will be sitting front and center for the entire journey Keep 'em comin Peter 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Gatlings! Trying to figure out an option for the ICM AH-1 kit. I've got the kit one, Aber in brass, CMK in resin. The Aber is the wrong length so I'd have to cut it down a bit. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted March 5, 2022 Author Share Posted March 5, 2022 Brass barrels, combined with the CMK resin body should look stellar 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
