Eduard Lysander MkIII 1:48

[Phil Podmore]

Hi Guys,

Here's an older build that helped me get my mojo back!

it was a fun kit to build, but fought me sometimes!

Cheers

Great - I've always loved the rather purposeful look of the Lysander, and you really do it justice! The paint chipping on the wheel spats is spot-on, how did you get that effect?

[WildeSau75]

Nice one - the Lysander - guess from Airfix - was probably the first scale model I have build - more than 30 years ago. Your build brings back memories.

Cheers,

Michael

It turned out rather well!

You evidently emerged victorious from the fight with the kit – the finished result speaks for itself.

Excellent portrayal of the Lizzie, and the cockpit framing looks perfect.

Good modelling!

Kind regards,

Joachim

The chipping was done by spraying with Alclad first, then stippling on liquid mask with a torn sponge - finally the black was added.

After the painting was very dry the masking fluid was removed to leave the chipping effect

Very nice, the black finish looks great.

I keep resisting the urge to add one of these to the stash.......dunno why, especially when I see builds like this.

Very very nice build.

Very realist.

Great work.
