Popular Post Nacktgeboren Posted December 28, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hi everyone! My name is Ernest and it’s my first post here. I’d like to show you my latest 1:72 model – Ilyushin IL-14 from White Eagle Museum (Skarzysko-Kamienna, Poland). This is a scratchbuild model, but fuselage was converted from Plasticart’s Mercure 1:100. More pics you can see here: http://www.pwm.org.pl/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=54241 It’s polish forum, but there is a lot of photos showing the construction progress from start to end. 87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircraftkit Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Fantastic ! Well done, very impressive. I particularly like the weathering and corrosion. All the more impressive given what you started with. Welcome to BritModeller, by the way; look forward to seeing more of your creations.

Viking Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 That is completely mad, but I love it. What a huge amount of work it must have been, and such brilliant modelling skills. Cheers John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumblestripe Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 That is extraordinary Ernest. Absolutely wonderful. Can I just ask, is that modelled in a non-flying condition? Obviously with so much of the aircraft in pieces it isn't going to be flying any time soon, but that staining and corrosion would put me off travelling in it! Completely convincingly done though. Bravo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Absolutely incredible. Looking forward to seeing more of your builds. Can't help wondering whether starting with the Amodel Il-14 might have been simpler though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarLos Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Absolutely stunning model. I just finished reading the 39 page thread in the Polish forum, very informative! I will return there for inspiration. I wish I could translate as well your article on macro photography! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greggles.w Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 This is just wonderful, I think all agree! A pleasure to review again & again ... I can barely believe you've achieved such a convincing mouldy finish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Jaw-dropping, head shaking, stupid smile disbelief – one of the most awesome models I've seen. I bow to the master. Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
