Blue Oyster Cult was the first band I saw in concert when I was 14. They have a great song about the ME262 and I`ve always wanted to build one like on their Secret Treaties album cover. This is the 1:48 Pegasus kit. It was $12 at the LHS, no interior so I shaded the canopy like Eric Bloom`s...

Cool.

This was a fun build. It was also fun to paint a model with no weathering. The decals were the worst :pinch: My Solvaset usually turns decals into a near-liquid and they settle down into every crevice. Several applications to these decals didn't even touch them.

Good question. Your diorama is sad and thought-provoking without being harsh, good job. You sure must have been tired of painting figuers by the end.

Has anybody tried putting the Bronco individual-link A13 tracks on an Italeri Crusader? Did those tanks use the same tracks in service? Ted

Hi Moon Puppy, I'd like to join if there's room on board. Thanks, Ted #3

The figure looks good so far, Did you paint the crosses? That floor looks amazing, great idea.

Brush painted! Nice work. The umbrella is a nice touch.

Very nicely built David, the cast texture is realistic.

That's an amazing collection.

Very nice detail and excellent scratchbuilding.

I started this a few months ago and just got back to it. I used George Bradford's excellent plans from this website afvnews I built this C15TA a few years ago. It was the first scratchbuilt model I made and one of my first model at all after getting back into the hobby. Here's the second...

Nice armoured car, I like the interior details.

Thanks Joe, I like the blue over brown for the eyes. Never thought of that.

I'd be into this one.

Thanks guys. Bob, the stretched sprue is a little inconsistent. I stretched lots of it then picked the most similar diameters. John, the SE5a is the 1/32 model from Wingnut Wings. I started the cockpit and it's great.

Thanks very much guys. Travis, I painted the prop with tan acrylic paint and then used a mixture of oil paints brushed on. It's a hit-and-miss process. An important tip is to use less oil paint on the brush than you think you need, mostly on the propeller in the photos the "stained" acrylic is...

Here's an airplane I've been working on for a while. Academy's 1/32 Nieuport 17. I just rigged it tonight with stretched sprue. Now for dullcoat to hide the glue from rigging and some dust and mud. It is marked as Billy Bishop's airplane using Hobbycraft decals. I grew up in Owen Sound, Ontario...

Excellent Laura, looks like the work on the tracks was worth it. It's amazing how small that tank (and the track) is. I have the Tristar with interior and would love to shoe-horn crew figures into it.
