Miggers Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Told you already what I think about the Tse-tse my lad. That XII has come out nicely too me old fruit. I see your red'ead has brown eyes,mine has blue. She's growling at me a bit because she's bought me an E-Cig to get me off the weed(no,not THAT kind of weed!!!),but I keep reaching for the fags that she's left on the book case to test my resolve-wicked woman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really struggled with the XII, it had a two piece cowl (similar to Fujimi's XIV) and the fit was appalling! The room in which I do all my modelling is dreadful to paint in during winter and the paint I used went VERY lumpy... I think I'll give it a nice grubby ink wash before I matt it Women eh!

wellsprop Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 nice pair there mosquite has to be one of most beautiful multi-engine planes ever.. what kit is it? Ive always seen the mosquito as blend between a multi engine Spitfire and a dh Comet/dragon rapide. That would be the old Airfix kit. I rescribed the wings and nose as well as added a resin upgrade cockpit and vacuformed canopy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Neu- Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Is that the Xtrakit XII kit wellsprop? Looks pretty good, regardless of the difficulties, as does the Mosquito. Edited January 1, 2014 by -Neu- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolwe82 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 That would be the old Airfix kit. I rescribed the wings and nose as well as added a resin upgrade cockpit and vacuformed canopy. Thats nice, so even more for rescribing! I still can´t force myself to that, it always ends tragicaly for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Rogers Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 You made a really good job of that Spitfire Ben, good to see it built up rather than sitting in my loft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
