  1. @georgeusa I think that vertical stabilizers require additional care to position them at appropriate angle. I decided to attach them after painting the wings to make masking easier, but It might be actually wiser to glue everything together first. As for the PE parts, its mostly undercarriage details and covers, if you want them realistically thin, the set might be worth it. But you could try to scratch build these from a styrene sheet as well, since inner detail is barely visible both in front and main gear.
  2. Kyushu J7W Shinden prototype interceptor. Hasegawa 1:72 kit with EDUARD PE set 72183.
  3. Messerschmitt P.1101 by Huma Modell in 1:72 I obtained this one second hand with some missing parts, namely the engine and the undercarriage. Huma's P.1101 is not their best release, fit is poor and details almost non-existent. Thus, I decided to make this as low-effort as possible, to serve as a testbed for some modeling techniques and metalizer paints.
  4. ASF-X Shinden II from the Ace Combat series of video games. Hasegawa in 1:72 scale.
  5. I never said that. As mentioned, my build uses both kits (bought them together cheaply second-hand as an incomplete package along with some resin and PE add-ons) and they are clearly very different. I have Academy's Komet but only with two seater fuselage so I am planning to do it in Russian captured scheme for a change. It will be standing on it's own, hence I could use the obviously better Academy's tractor for this presentation.
  6. Heller's Messerschmitt Me 163 on the Scheuch-Schlepper from Academy kit in 1:72 scale. The plane has rescribed panel lines, both models include some scratch and also Part PE elements. Painted with Vallejo Air in alleged Erprobungskommando 16 scheme.
  7. Nope, I don't like the "armless" design. Might do XV95, XV107 or KX139 someday, but for now I've switched to MG Gundams.
  8. TBH I put all the guns that were available on this kit. Might be against the rulebook, but I don't play with these figures anyway.
  9. T'au XV104 Riptide Battlesuit by Games Workshop in 28mm scale.
  10. T'au XV88 Broadside Battlesuit by Games Workshop in 28 mm scale.
  11. TR-5 Harpy in "Norma" paint scheme from the anime Crusher Joe. Hasegawa 1:72 kit. Painted with Mr. Color and coated generously with automotive 2K gloss.
  12. Just don't make the same mistake I did with the loadout - blue stripes mean training munitions
  13. I did some careful marbling over the main coat with light greys and browns and also airbrushed some heavily thinned dust colored oil enamel here and there to simulate sand, Also panel wash using both dark greys and sand colors. Nothing really elaborate and if I did this model again I would probably black base it instead and preshade/marble prior to laying main color. One other thing I didn't have at the time but would highly recommend now is using the Ushi "Trinity Splatter" stencils (or similar product) to simulate irregular paint wear on top of main color..
