Spitfire31 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 That Gladiator belongs squarely in the 'wow!' category. Amazing realism and atmosphere, along with strike me dead rigging! Incidentally, what material did you use for the rigging? EZline or Uschi v d R? Or some secret recipie? Fab modelling! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey Beema Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Got the Sea Gladiator in the stash. It's going to stay there whilst I now take up knitting. Fantastic build there - well done.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady72 Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Anyway, I'd like to ask you a question about the colour scheme. Didn't those planes have a "shadow" scheme over the bottom wings....???? I'm surely wrong about that, but I remember something like that when first saw the Roden instructions sheet.... Cheers... I used Roden painting instruction scheme. Actually what does it mean "shadow" scheme? Well done, especially the exhaust collector and pipes. Could you tell me your method, please? Chris It is very simple, I used redbrown color mixed with few drops of silver color. Incidentally, what material did you use for the rigging? EZline or Uschi v d R? Or some secret recipie? Fab modelling! Kind regards, Joachim EZ line Joachim. Uschi's magic line I am using for vessel's riggings. Thank you for all kind words. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris B Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Don't make many airyplanes these days, stick to AFVs but that's a superb build and finish. Might even tempt me to venture into the shed and dig out my Roden kit that's been banished for a good number of years. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
