al_the_drummer Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Absolutely extraordinary work at that scale - I'd be proud of that at 1/48th! Wonderful little creation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I cannot believe that both Eduard and you have managed to get so much detail into a 1/144 spit!! Brilliant work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizza65 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hello, Newbie question...What kit ? where from ? I,ll work out the "how" when I attempt it.! fantastic job, Are there custom transfers out there so you can play around with different squadrons eg: 145 (Polish) (N.Afrika) and 81sqd "ace of spades" Mk1X(Burma). I like this scale as I want to produce a diorama for the desert and another for Burma "Broadway". The Broadway one depicting 6 Mk1X,s (Dark Brown,Green red spinner) with ground crew preparing pilots for taxi. I am getting info from my granddad who is detailing the strip for me eg: 100 octane barrels stored in trenches safe® from straffing and hot day temperatures. Dennis (rhs in my avatar photo) was there as a kite engine man to Flt off MaClean (SAAF) but with RAF 81sqd. I will be needing any info I can get for the build eg: can you get figures, trucks etc.. in that scale? bye for now...Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefr22 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 There are sheets of generic WW2 R.A.F. markings available on e-bay, such as; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-100-1-144-1-200-1-285-Mehusla-Decals-RAF-Letters-Grey-Wide-Font-WWII-YK-58-/121172199792?pt=UK_ToysGames_ModelKits_ModelKits_JN&var=420170144958&hash=item1c366d0970 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-100-1-144-1-200-1-285-Mehusla-Decals-RAF-Letters-White-Wide-Font-WWII-YK-59-/121172200254?pt=UK_ToysGames_ModelKits_ModelKits_JN&var=420170145025&hash=item1c366d0b3e If you search 1/144 RAF decals, you'll find a fair selection. Preiser do various 1/144 figure sets, & UK N gauge model railway vehicles are not that far off 1/144. There is a company that does white metal RAF & Army vehicles, but I think it's only modern stuff, & their name escapes me at the moment....

Bjorn Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Where can you buy these enormous one-pound-coins? Absolutely stunning work! I would have been happy to have built such a well-detailed model in 1/32! Amazing finish and weathering too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick b Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Fantastic work, I often feel that this very small scale modelling isn't given the wider recognition and praise it deserves, same with the really superb small scale model ships seen on this forum. Do you have a particular magnifying set up or do you have glasses like Cosmo Smallpiece?!! Thanks for sharing. Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
