Yes, it is just to drop the model. Week later to collect it. Today Japan calls State of Emergency, since 117 version causes now havok. Maybe, that the SHS must be canceled. It is due to the CV situation, alarming.

Hallo Now the inner static rigging box is done. The front 4 eyelet square was a little challange, but not all to compare with 4 inline! Outer box, front wire & aileron control wires on Monday. The day after control wires for rudder and elevator. Paint repair & final steps. So far my shedule. Happy modelling

Hallo Hier are some pictures again. Maybe you get some interestung push or inspiration. The last photos are remarkable. A private club made RAF aircrafts, to tell the story about the RAF. Happy modelling

Great. Wonderful!

Hallo For this a/c I call out for masks. No decals. Myself built the Lancy in 48 all decals broken. Present day all WW1 in 1/32 from WNW all sprayed. Roundel masks all selfmade. With a cutter. Masking material from Revell in A4 format. Big enough. Make masks before you start. If you have no experience with masks, so look at my posts. Present day a RE.8 in 1/32 WIP. Many other advices about masking in my posts. Look out via profile. I built also the Mosquito from HK in 1/32. Spraying is a must!!!!! Happy modelling

Now this was the hardest day! 8 wires done! Why? The rigging on the 4 eyelets in line at the fuselage / wing area. Here you have the choice to use the eye up or eye in flight direction. Each choice causes a trouble. Collision! So to turn them 45° is not a much better choice. Anyway it took me the whole day. After I got ma vaccine in the morning, I was in high spirits despite the matter of rigging ached. The trouble is caused simple by the impossibility to attach top outer wings later! Happy modelling

This were our models. The challange was the transport via airline as a special case from VIE to NRT.

Hallo The Hobby Show in Shizuoka 2016, is usually anual. This is also Tamiya town. Hasegawa is noit far away located. In 2016 my wife and me exhibited our models also there. Have a look and get some inspiration. Happy modelling

Are you sure? Since I remember some types like Hansa Brandenburg...as WNW stopped this partikular kit, Cooper State also? So maybe this time again? No great hopes. Roden is more likely to release new kits? Happy modelling

Wonderful You may take a look on some Ju-88 Nightfighter built in Japan. In my thread about Shizuoka in RFI. Happy modelling

Hallo Some steps rigging. Center wing & fuselage Gear & fuselage Tailplane & fuselage Control wires for the tailskid Due to my experience, it is a quite nice thing. Next will be the static wires for the main wing. Happy modelling

I suppose so! Manga and SciFi is a heavy part on this show, beside scale models. Happy modelling

Hallo Some more photos. All this photos I made in 2018 in Shizuoka in Japan at the Hobby Show. Why I am posting it? First of all, this Show and most others will not happen so soon, due to Corona. Japanese modelers have a quite different approach to modelling as us in the Western world. Maybe you get some ideas. Maybe you get some new inspirations.

Hallo I will post a lot of photos now. This photos were taken in 2018 in Shizuoka in Japan at the Hobby Show. Why I am posting it? First of all, this Show and most others will not happen so soon, due to Corona. On the other side, the Japanese modelers have a quite different approach to modelling as us in the Western world. Last but not least, this photos some people liked it already, since sometimes I put one or some at the forum. The year before we exhibited there with some of our models. Maybe you get some ideas. This is what I want just to insp

Hallo To continue: The eyelets in formation of 4 in line and square at the wing root The additional eyelet at the center wing top, because the front X is a double wire All other eyelets installed Additional steering bar for the tail skid Well, worst of all: The center wing to install first, is impossible. You MUST take the complete top wing at once. The struts and the outer wing interfere. Only the fixed outer wing allows to glue the strut on top! This makes rigging more complicated as it is anyway. Happy modelling
