    Ryefield Models M1240A1 M-ATV, US MRAP All Terrain Vehicle

    Ok, it is time to get back to this one. Enough distractions already! I have watched some videos on how others build it. They all agree to complete the painting in stages then combine at the end and do touch up as needed. So basically it will be ten or so little complete models then put them...

    "My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.", or.. "Smile when you say that, Punk!" For @Sharkmouth Saul, who is generous to a fault.

    So, would it be caused by the wings or the prop? The images I find show two vortices swirling inward behind the plane but they are all twin engine jets.

    Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

    That's a negative ghost rider. But if they are like any other enamel such as Testors, Humbrol, or MCW, thinning and cleaning with Xylene will do the trick for airbrushing or brush brushing. For brush brushing a Sable hair (particularly Kolinski sable but 'spensive as H E double hockey sticks)...

    Bristol Blenheim Mk. I 1/72

    Fantastic as usual! Geez, that is tiny in your fingers. It is why I have to build 1:48 (or 32) I can't see what you are doing!!

    New guy

    Welcome to the madnesss BM. I build pretty much everything, but I particularly love 3D modeling and have been using Blender for a couple of years. So far, I have done nothing organic like making a person, but I can make cars, motors, tires, trailers, etc. I currently am running one Elegoo Saturn...

    The leading edge is to the left which is why I thought the other was backwards.

    Am I right that the propeller was spinning backwards? I redid the print but it isn't too late to turn the props the other way. Does this look right? Also, decals. The decals were extremely thin and tore just looking at them. The edges of the ones I managed to get right will vanish easily. This...

    My back is improving somewhat, thank you for asking. I still can't lift much without being down a day or two. But the daily pain is way better. I still squeak like crazy, but that is just annoying and not painful. I wonder if I could sand down the trailing edge to get the blur more convincing...

    Sorry for the absence! Lord have mercy, life is so getting in my way. Mom, moving the store, moving in with mom, my brother helping himself to 100K of her money, trying to get most of it back, etc etc etc. What a freakshow :bash: I have worked on the pkane here and there. I got the Allied...
