stevej60 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Hi folks,well third time lucky after two bin jobs I have finished my first 1/48 kit for two years! Bought for seven quid at my local air museum it came with a base and motor for the prop.A really stress free fun build as you would expect even for an older Tamiya kit used maskol for the paint wear effect http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234966729-rising-sun-raiden/ hope this link works to the WIP.Thanks for looking. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookenbacher Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Great paint chipping, even on the decals - wow! That looks awesome, and you've shown the best technique to make the most realistic possible spinning prop effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaStix Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Great job Steve! That looks excellent. Prop effect looks much better than prop-blurs!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin-42 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Very nice. Only thing I noticed was the canopy frame has no chipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 Very nice. Only thing I noticed was the canopy frame has no chipping. Yea, it has a small amount but the photo,s have shown more needed I have a couple of touch ups to do before it heads upstairs to the shelf so I.ll add a bit with a silver pencil.

rob85 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Love this, never seen this ac before... Looks fat and fast which is odd, not the normal combo! Lovely weathering a real beauty in a chipped a dirty way. Especially as its not your scale!! Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
