Absolutely wonderful!

 

Rigging may have been intense for you but the results show it was all worth it.

Thanks Dave - appreciate it 👍

I like sabre but I'm really a confirmed Epeeist - hence my forum name!!

[1/3 Trumpeter M4 S.I.R assault rifle]

All,

 

Not sure where else to post this so apologies if in wrong area.

 

This is another of Trumpeters 1/3 scale rifles in the M16/M4 series.   This one is the M4 S.I.R rifle.   

 

Very straightforward kits to build with not too many parts so assembly is fairly quick.  The work is in eliminating joints and seams (that would not exist on the real weapon) then painting to look realistic.

 

Therefore built OOB and brush painted.

You've done a blinding job on this kit, Dean - I also built this exact one about a year or so ago and completely agree regarding your comments on building and the terrible kit decals.

I'm not really a 'jet man' but the Phantom is one of the more good looking ones - your models of them are great.  My favourite is the RAF camo one.

Thats very impressive for a brush paint - what paint did you use? Also well done for including the 'javelin' cross bracers which the kit instructions miss!

 

TT

Thank you kindly!

 

The paint I use is the Revell 'aqua colour' paint range (mostly aluminium for this one) which (for me) work extremely well for brush painting and leaves a lovely smooth finish.

Dear all,

 

Airfix's 48 scale Tiger Moth kit completed today.

 

Lovely kit although the cabane struts are very flimsy and easily broken.  Built out of box (and painted by brush as always) with only  set of home made seat harness to dress cockpit up with.

 

I live in Kent so it had to be painted in the scheme to represent the one at Headcorn aerodrome in 2018 not far from Maidstone.
