Andy Moore Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Focke-Wulf Triebflügel MiniArt 1/35 This is MiniArt's new Triebflügel interceptor from their recently launched "What If?" range. It's a very nice kit, although I guess it's a slightly alien scale for most aircraft modellers. The semi-fictional design should mean it will fit in with a 1/32 collection without looking too out of place though. No real issues with the build, although I did make a slight modification to the mounting points for the stabiliser wheels to give them a more secure fit. Apart from that it was out of the box, with the exception of a harness set from HGW. Thanks for looking Andy 38 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrés S. Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 You have done a spectacular job again, full of magnificent details in the painting that I have followed in "The Modelling News". Here you don't show us the cockpit though. I love the effect achieved to represent the drag of grease or lubricants in the rotation section of the propeller. And a detail, which unfortunately I usually see that it is not given the right treatment, that I also like very much is the perfect integration of the decals with the surface of the model. As always, I continue to learn what I can from your work. Congratulations !!! Andrés. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mihajlo Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Simply superb, Andy! Congratulations! Like Andres, I also followed your WIP in themodellingnews website. You are one of the modeller I have as reference. Planes, AFV, Sci-Fi,... All kits you build are little jewels. By the way, I am a fan of your work not only as a modeler but also as a photographer 😉 Cheers! Miguel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicardoD Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Wonderful work, pure pleasure to watch. The scale probably aims to induce armor and vehicle diorama guys into flying things Or... maybe vice versa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
