I wasn't a huge fan of the scheme at first, but it has grown on me and continues to do so now that it is finished -

1/48 Eduard Spitfire VIII SEAC 152 Sqn
Brewer replied to Brewer's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Personally I will not be using the Brassin cockpit again. Detail isn't bad, certainly better than the kit parts, but for me it was not nearly as "drop fit" as advertised. Perhaps it was user error, but in the future I will be using the new cockpit set from BarracudaCast for my Eduard Spits Thanks! I used Tamiya for the Dark Green and Medium Sea Grey and a custom mix of Tamiya and Gunze for the Dark Earth, all acrylics -

Thanks guys! AK-Interactive's Ultra Matte Varnish -
Hey guys! Here's the latest one off the bench - Eduard's recent Spitfire VIII. This was my first time building one of Eduard's lovely Spitfires and now I see what all of the fuss was about! I'll certainly be building more in the future. Thanks for looking! - Brassin cockpit - Brassin wheels - Ultracast 1-pc cowl - Ultracast exhaust - Ultracast spinner/prop - Quickboost cockpit door - Master gun barrels - BarracudaCals decals

Excellent build, David! Beautiful little Mig! -
Hellenic F-4E Phantom 1/48 Hasegawa
Brewer replied to Robotics's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Wow! The paintwork is fantastic! Beautiful model, always love the Greek birds -
Excellent build! I'm glad to see you eliminated the panel line on the upper cowl that's present on the Eduard kits due to the parts breakdown, most people miss that detail

1/48 HobbyBoss Ta 152C-11 "What If" JG 1
Brewer replied to Brewer's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks guys! As for the photography, thanks for the compliments jbpruitt. My setup is about as simple as it gets, about $40 US invested: -
Amazing as always, Artur! Every time you build something unusual it makes me want to go out and get one, too. I would never have thought of building a Spartan but now I want one in the stash! haha

Thanks guys! -
So my Ta152 whiffer is done. The C-11 variant was proposed but never built, so no matter what markings I chose they would have been speculative - I decided to have some fun with it. Scheme is based on the Bf109G-6AS birds of JG 1. I also made a lot of corrections and alterations along the way.

1/48 Hobbyboss Ta 152 C-11 "What If"
Brewer replied to Brewer's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
I did lightly rescribe the panel lines just to ensure they were crisp and uniform in width and depth. As with the rivets, they look white in the pic because they are full of sanding dust -

Brewer replied to Brewer's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Ok one last progress shot. Tried out Uschi van der Rosten's elastic rigging line in the "Fine" size for the aerial antenna. I'd say it worked well And one bonus shot tonight of the finished build. More to be posted in Ready For Inspection -

1/48 Hobbyboss Ta 152 C-11 "What If"
Brewer replied to Brewer's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Thanks for the tip, Anders! I was reluctant to try thinning with anything but AK's thinners because I assumed the paint was a similar formula to Vallejo, but I did notice the smell of isopropyl in AK's thinner last night so I'm thinking it's completely different stuff. I'll have to give the Tamiya thinner a shot. BTW, huge fan of your profile page - I check it often to see what new stuff you post -

Some exhaust staining and additional general grime should be a good way to end the day's work
