  1. Outstanding work! A real pleasure to see. Respect!
  2. One of the most elegant wariors in WW II airpowers. As is its redention above. Truly outstanding job, Russ! Elegant and so painted. Very good modelling.
  3. Very, very "Greinerty", as usual! Grats! Kiedy widzę nazwisko Greinert, jestem pewien uczty dla oczu! Piękny samolot, piękny model, świetna robota.
  4. And that is the net-spot (Britmodeller.com, I mean), where I can watch the outstanding masterpieces of the people, I can write about with capital letters: The Model Creators. Mr Putty Animal, it must be pleasing to have admirerers around the globe! Your DH.2 is... well... the one and only. Keep showing us more, we're patient, we'll wait.
  5. What a refreshing gasp of fresh modellers' air after all those 109s, thundersomethings and F's! Beautiful and inspiring. Keep on making civilians, there are so many beauties among them!
  6. A masterpiece, Xmald! The Thing to show to the beginners. Świetna, wybitna robota! Gratulacje!
  7. Outstanding! Magnificent cockpit job! Now, waiting for the rest of Your Bf110 around it!
  8. Excuse me, Britmodeller... Have You decided to discourage young modellers to continue their hobbies??? What is the reason to place here such horrors???
  9. Please, do consider changing Your nick into: "JoYners", because it is a real joy, pleasure and respect to see Your work! Keep on making such gems!
  10. A very, very good modelling piece of art! Rarely seen subject and perfectly realised. But... Next time try to use lighter "wash" media. Watch the pictures of the original: riveting and other "lines" are less visible. That is not a "criticism for the sake of criticism". Your model looks great! Keep on making such gems.
  11. Heller has a very good reputation back here in Europe. I've built many Heller kits, and I know what I am writing about. Many of them were, and are - unique. Buy Bloch 174 elsewhere! The kit under pressure is sure to be sent back, that's obvious. But Bloch 174 is one of the most beautiful designs, and if You want one, get one (I am not a Heller dealer, I am nobody's dealer!)
  12. "Spare parts box" has always been THAT magic spot, where you return to sanity... Go on, Alexey! You're doing a great piece of modelling art.
  13. Hello, again. All You've written is true, and I know Broplan kits, as they {he, rather, Janusz Brożek) are from my country. What is the main advantage of vacform kits? You can do them yourself and have a truly rare example in your collection. "Do yourself", of course, means carving forms (from wood, styrofoam, or resins) and "suck" fuselage, wings, and bigger parts of the subject. The rest are your modelling will and skills. Roughly speaking: you have the plastic eggshells to fill them. Buying a "ready to assemble" plastic model kit, especially produced by one of the makers who know the rules, you are on easier way to great results. No shame in that; that's modelling. But when you'll make your own project and place it on a modellers show's table, the crowd will gather around your unique model, not around another "bf", "spit", or "zero". Here I speak about the uniqueness of vac models, the same being with newly rising 3D prints. Both ways (and scratchbuilding, of course) lead to being original, already having been skilled in modelling. Too much prose from me! Keep on doing "eyecatchers"!
  14. Great and challenging effort, I keep watching and admiring. Andrzej Ziober, the modelling Master from Poland, winner of many world contests, decades ago made a replica of the f-13 successor - the f-23. Have a look at it on: https://www.craftsmanshipmuseum.com/Ziober.htm It has been crafted from one of the last Plasticart (GDR) models, taken over later by Revell. Thmbs up from me, Moa, You make very impressive models.
  15. If THAT is a "two left hands" work, what do You do with Your right hands?! I am very sorry for those who write elsewhere, that "vac-form models are a long gone stories". Magnificent effort on a great, historic plane, and undobtedly - a rarity in modellers' collections, which is essential in chosing subjects. You have another amazed observer.
  16. Now, THAT is the "quick, OOB build"! Firm grip of my hand to Yours for skill, imagination, patience and persistence. Let us all learn, how OOB modelling should look like. Congratulations, and keep the pattern of modelling that high, and higher!
  17. Now, that is the essence of modeling: classic, beautiful machine in rare, interesting uniform. Very impressive and encouraging to find other subjects, fellow modellers omit in their searches. Keep on finding, making and presenting to us!
  18. Now, that is modeling! As for "vintage": You can have vintage armchair, but certainly not a model. These are good, or bad. If one calls glueing together toy parts "vintage modeling", one's wrong. Frog kits, for example, are fantastic to make great replicas, putting much, much effort in what one plans to present. Your artistic work is surely modeling, not "vintage", but admirable!
  19. Truly outstanding work. Modelling - meaning: putting together bits of plastic, IS the test for our patience. Comparing what You did, to, ex. the WNW 1/32 kits put together, pushes You forward in the site rankings. Keep trying, You do great job. And stay in good health, because we all love Spain!
  20. It is a real fun to observe so many men comparing sizes!
