F-16C USAF Aggressor Squadron
Roman Schilhart replied to Sky Keg's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Pretty unusual scheme for a F-16, most I've seen come in shades of grey. This is a nice change to the usual routine, especially because the top colors continue on the underside. Well done Mike! Best greetings, Roman -
FW-190D-9 “blue 12” hasegawa 1/32

Great work, thorough reasearch on the paint scheme! -
1/72 Legato UC-61 Forwarder
Roman Schilhart replied to Roman Schilhart's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Geoff, the main problem is that all the struts and undercarriage are butt-joined, lacking positioning slots, which results in weak stability. However, theres two humps on the lower wings, and shallow guide lines along the fuselage, to give you an idea where the struts should be positioned. The design of the landing gear construction is the biggest challenge, beacuse the fit is poor. The angles of the strut ends do not match. Several attempts were required to get a symmetrical geometry (or, at least, the best I could). I don't recall that any of the parts were either too short, or too long, they were not modified. The front clear part needs adjustments to make it fit, because it does not conform with the shape of the fusealge very well. And yes, the AZ Models kit is a re-box of the Legato kit (the Legato brand was acquired by the AZ Model imperium several years ago). I wish you good luck and success for your build! -
Eduard`s new "Kurfürst", Bf 109 K-4 in 1:48
Roman Schilhart replied to mathy's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Brilliant. Can't wait to see this kit released in 72 scale. -
Finally a new tooling of this interesting aircraft in 1/72. Much looking forward to this release! I've tried myself on the Amodel/SovaM kit twice, both attempts ended up in the bin - even though I consider myself an 'experienced modeler' I just couldn't make things fit. I hope IBG will present a clever solution for the antenna mast which goes through the clear part (no provision for this on the Amodel/SovaM kit).

1/72 Clear Prop MiG-23MLD Syrian Air Force
Roman Schilhart replied to VG 33's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
What a great start into the new modelling year, Patrick! -
Modelling masterclass, great choice of subjects - difficult to pick a favorite! The Eduard Messerschmitt Bf109K-4 is exceptionally good, I can't wait for Eduard's 1/72 release of this kit.

Having a fondness for WWII aircraft, I would pick the B-25J, P-39 and Ki-62 (yes, it's shiny enough!) as my favorites. You can be proud of your achievement, Sir!

Colorful like a parrot, although quite chubby. Significantly less elegant than the Ki-61, especially when you look at the two side by side!

Hello Mike, you're firing out the kits during the holiday season! At first look I thought the green spots are painted on, and wondered about your masking technique, until I realized they are decals. I didn't think you could achieve such a great result with them - wonderfully done. Best greetings!

Dewoitine D.520 (Hasegawa 1/72)
Roman Schilhart replied to Ferguson's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Your brilliant paintwork and great detailling/rivetting brings the Hasegawa kit to a total new level. Masterpiece! -
You did a good job on this kit and the markings, in my opinion the Airacobra looks best with Red Stars! Sorry to hear it was a "complicated" build.

Heinkel He-162 "I'm only a poor little Sparrow!"

Beautiful build of a rather ugly aircraft (to my eyes, at least - reminds me of a humpback)
