  1. What a beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome !!!! may I ask what did you use for the antenna cables to meke them so realistic?

  3. I usually build WW2 1:48 planes scale but i plan to build also 1:24.
  4. Hi all, i just bought an Iwata Ninja Jet compressor. Now i need an aribrush to use eith but i have no idea on which one to purchase. I wold like to have a two action airbrush but i really dont know how to chose it. I don't nedd nay professional one, just o good one for "standar" modelling. I buy my equipment from this site: https://www.airbrushking.ch/pistolen/IWATA/?currency=EUR&switch_country=AD&view_mode=tiled&listing_sort=price_asc&listing_count=24&cat=c54&cPath=2_54 I'm sorry it's only in german, but prices are in EUR. Could you please help me to choose the right Airbrush please? Thanks
  5. Just a quick question about washes: I use Flory Model washes which a great to use because water based and needs no enmael thinner or so on to remove excess liquid. I see that Tamiya, Ak and Vallejo also got tons of washes but i never tried them. Anyone got a advice on that? I'm a little bit scared about using thinner to remove washes form panels because meaby it could remove the main colors...but probably i'm wrong: if i correctly remember, you can use enamel thinner liquid on acrylic paint, or an acrylic thinner on enamel colors, right?
  6. Thanks a lot guys! So many thing i don't know about this plane. Thanks LDSModeller: really appreciate your care about the details you provide me for this kit. I will let you know about the work in progress...but don't expect too much
  7. Thanks a lot! Awesome pictures! As said by Steve219 it looks like the weathering is concentrated on the water line of the aricraft, and especially on the front. And as I see most of the times it uses the whithe and grey color scheme which is very nice. I'm just wondering what to use for the cables...meaby electric copper one and then paint in black? The manual tell to use plastic ones, but i don't know ho to cut plastic that thin. This picture it's quite interresting: https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=e5ziYzhY&id=8FDD296A4D43DE7D7F44E094435973082E174DFC&thid=OIP.e5ziYzhYW_IR_UPL_fdOdgEsDX&q=short+sunderland+mk+iii&simid=608002886710200666&selectedIndex=27&ajaxhist=0
  8. Really beatifull models! Really like the cammo one. May I ask how do you paint the camouflage with that "soft" borders? I mean...if you just put masking tapes you will see a clear difference between the base color and the green but in your model this line a "soft". How do you achieve that?
  9. Thanks guys! Well...i'would like to build a good model..i'm not really practical with drilling holes and so on...i need some experimentation...i found this kit really nice because not really a popular plane in modeller community, i did not saw many around. Actually i bought Eduard paint masks and, interiores [yeah i know money for nothing], and a wing surface kit. I'd love to build the external maintenance platforms but it's way to advances for me now. I like little details and that why I asked for barrels. Colors wise i think i'll try to paint the No. 10 Squadron of may 1941...hope the cammo will looks good. Well, i think i'll post some pictures of the work in progress so you guys will be able to correct my mistakes. Thanks again
  10. Thank for the help! Will pay attention to it! Thanks
  11. Thank you wery much for your help. I looked at some Eduard kit...thinking to get the cockpit one and some external stuff. But i got a question. I read that Sunderland had 16 .303 guns and i found those barrels from Ultracast : http://www.ultracast.ca/products/Master/48 Scale/MAM-48-026/default.htm . Are these the right barrels? Do you think it worth to get them or look for some resin ones? Thanks again
  12. Hi, i'm looking for a good e-book store for WW2 books, anyone got a suggestion? Thanks
  13. Hi all, i just bought an Italeri Sunderland Mk. III. Anyone did one already? I'm looking for some advices on how to build it or if there are some tips an tricks. For example what to use for the cables, or if there are photo ench parts, beside the ones that come with the kit, or resin parts, what are the most weathered parts of the planes and so on. Well all advices are welcome! Thank!
