Thanks everyone
YOu are very kind to me. As I look at the pictures, I see that there are some aspects which are better but overall it did not come out as good as the Zero. I reckon that if you brush paint, you need too much of the enamel (even in several coats) to get the job done, and the details simply vanish. Also, the end result is murky and thick. :smack hmy: hmy: hmy:
I would like to repeat the build but now it is time to move forward - the Wildcat is waiting, then some other projects. I will try and start the wildcat this week, but not sure if I can - I am writing a grant proposal and the deadline is coming up...
Thanks again friends,
Alex
P.S: Retracted or extended wings for the Wildcat?
P.P.S: Bob can you started a completed builds thread? Thanks!
Excellent. That settles it then: extended wings.
As for your skills, they are improving. I am also trying hard to improve my skills; my Saturn V and Space shuttle are not nearly as good as I want therm to be but I haven't the skills, knowledge or resources I need to do them better. I am still in the fight though and will continue to strive for better results. So, when you look on your current completed models; don't allow yourself to get discouraged. Instead, look on them as learning aids and become more encouraged to improve while you learn what to do to improve. Let your models motivate you to do better. You'll get there.
Looking forward to seeing more.

Bah! Hang in there. I don't see anything to be ashamed of. I'd put them on display in my living room. And I really dig the base...adds a nice finish to it.Thank you so much for the support and encouragement. It is sometimes hard, you see so much wonderful work here (Christian's Skua, Matrixone's Ki-46 Dinah. Luiz's Merkava Tank and so on, just to name a few that I have seen) that when you look back at what you do you cannot think anything but "what a bunch of wasted plastic"... I guess I am overly critical, simply because in other areas I cannot afford to fail even a bit...
That's the money shot right there.So, when you look on your current completed models; don't allow yourself to get discouraged. Instead, look on them as learning aids and become more encouraged to improve while you learn what to do to improve. Let your models motivate you to do better.
