Fuad Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Hello, colleagues. I present to you my latest model. I have not any problems with assembly. I used the set of etched parts from Eduard intended for a similar model from “Dragon”. I must say, the set came in like a glove, very little has been reduced in the cabin section and cut a pair of projections. Plastic was hard, like Hasegawa’s plastic. I'd add the antenna cable from nylon thread, wing lights from colored plastic and hydro supply to the chassis from copper wire. Drilled shafts of machine guns on the hood. Colored with Alclad and Tamiya. Lacquers – Pledge Futura and Tikurilla. Edited March 1, 2013 by Fuad 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Well, that's just superb! That scheme has always intimidated me. One slip while applying the green patches and its ruined! You have obviously solved that problem. It looks wonderful. I also like the subtle and restrained weathering on the undersurfaces. The model could so easily pass for 1/48. Oh... and it's not just the model that is superb. Look at the photography! to Britmodeller! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 wow, until I read further down I thought it was 1/48, 1/72 it's outstanding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrritableRabbit Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Bloomin heck! A gobsmackingly gorgeous looking scheme of a really interesting subject, perfectly done in 1/72nd scale. What else is there to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuad Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Let me tell you the small secret - this is not camo, this decal! Fine Molds gives several such models with ready camouflage. You need only to carefully weld them to the surface. I used Tamiya Mark Fit for this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Are they individual decals or on a sheet to do say one wing, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuad Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 I made the metal surface by chemical from Alclad. And the decals are solid with sheets on the wing and pieces on the fuselage . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noeyedears Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 certainly beats "barley grey" all over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact that the camo is a decal does not detract from the finished model. Applying decals that large brings its own problems! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applying decals that large brings its own problems! They do the camouflage decals in some of the Bf109 kits as well. I've had my Fine Molds Bf109F-2 and Ki-61 at shows and people thought I had airbrushed the camouflage. thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the process of delaying the availability of additional photoetched parts from "Edward." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
