    1/48 Ibex T-6 Texan II

    Thank you for the comment. Nice that you get to see the real deal often. Seems like you have the chicken and egg thing going on......is it better to have weapons and no delivery platform, or a delivery platform but no weapons. At least the option is there :idonno

    1/48 Ibex T-6 Texan II

    Yes, it is, though the T-6 is a spicy little aircraft, the next step at least in the AF is I believe the T-38, so a bit of a step up.

    Fantasy Flight Games AT-RT

    Thank you, I appreciate the critique. I will take a shot at fixing them before putting this away. Funny thing is I can barely see the eyes without using magnification.....they don't look so bad that way :rotf :rotf

    Fantasy Flight Games AT-RT

    So after finishing the T-6 I was sorta not building much until I happened to find this little guy in the local comic book store. I was waiting to pick up lunch for my wife from the sub shop next door and went in to check the place out. There are not alot of parts in the kit, but the detail...

    1/48 Ibex T-6 Texan II

    Thank you Bob, appreciate it. As for the beading issue, I have no idea, everything came from the same bottles I used on the initial finish, same paint, clearcoat etc. Left plenty of drying time as well between paint and clear :idonno By the third try I figured I had noting to lose so switched...

    1/48 Ibex T-6 Texan II

    I started this one a while ago, and had needed to get it finished by the first week of June, which I did, just haven't had much time to post up anything recently. Work and family stuff have kept me occupied for the past several weeks. Anyway, here goes..... The kit is more like a limited run...

    Revell Monogram Cylon Raider Nr. 85-3616

    After doing a bit of research, it looks like Monogram stayed pretty close to the filming miniature so while there are a couple of things to add, nothing like I had imagined. The biggest challenges will be to make the model not see through, cleaning up fit issues, and covering up the holes for...

    Revell Monogram Cylon Raider Nr. 85-3616

    I will build the Revell-Monogram 1/64 scale Cylon Raider. Monogram first issued this kit in 1978 (Good Lord, was it that long ago??) This kit was issued in 1996, and one more issue cam in 2007 with updated parts. I always wanted to build one of these back in the day (my best friend had one), but...

    First Order TIE Fighter

    Well, better late than never :idonno I was on track to get tis finished on time as I had some time off over Easter weekend. Alas, very, very early Good Friday morning I ended up at the hospital with what turned out to be a case of Diverticulitis, a very uncomfortable and unpleasant intestinal...

    James' stuff

    Don't despair James. Work on the things you like, as you feel like it, at your own pace. I like to look at it this way; it is a model, they make more every day! I am up to my third Williams Bros. Douglas world cruiser, 3rd Tamyia Skyray, second Trumpeter Kilo sub, second airfix 1/144 737, second...

    1 / 48 V-100

    Got the major parts together. Getting the wheels on looked to be a bit of a challenge but turned out to not be too bad. In the end they are pretty much straight, all touch the ground, and the vehicle looks to have the correct stance, so pretty happy with that so far. Now to start working on the...

    First Order TIE Fighter

    The first step of construction is the crew capsule, so here we go :soldier The tub was painted with a Gunze medium grey, given a dark wash and dry brushed to pick up the detail. The back to back seat unit as well as the instrument columns were sprayed with Mr. Paint Artic grey, which is a...

    1 / 48 V-100

    Thank you. Yeah, the kit goes pretty quick, I got it in the mail Saturday and by that night I had it up on its wheels. I will probably putter with the handles and small stuff this week if I have time. I have to figure out the markings for it; I was going to do "Catch 22", but it had a field...
