Rowdy Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Dear all, New member here, Working on the Zoukei Mura Heinkel 219. I just wanted to make something different then just a model of this huge aircraft (even in scale). That why I started to chop and demolish this kit So far I finished the cockpit section, more updates to follow! 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocRob Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Very nice introduction to the forum, your wrecked canopy section looks very convincing. Is it a fictional project or are you working with photos? BTW, Welcome to LSM, the place to be for relaxed plastic nuts Cheers Rob 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will look good with a translucent paint job on top. Cheers Rob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowdy Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 RLM 76 is on! One more layer? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GusMac Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Looking great Rowdy. I'd be tempted to stop there as weathering and insignia, etc will probably knock back the contrast to give a realistic end result. I often tend to go 'one too many' in these situations, so I've been trying to stop myself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowdy Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 Gusmac, Thanks! You mean to leave it this way to prevent to lose the details? I like this result the most, what you say... one layer more or I will lose the contrast! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piet Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 The front part doesn't look that mottled,one more layer to match the front part ? Other than that ..........this build looks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted October 8, 2020 Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2020 Good to see you here, Rowdy! What an entrance! An amazing depiction so far I’m looking forward to seeing you’re finish in this.
