BlueNosers352nd Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) Calling this one done! What a sweet kit, minus the wiring harness on the engine (it's omitted on my build, lost patience with it). Eduard 1/48 F6F-3 Profipack w/ kit decals. Only extras are the gun barrels as since I tend to model with the "Bull in a China Shop" mentality...........they got broken off. Still need to figure out stars/bars or stencils. They still plague me. Blues are Mr Color, most everything else is Tamiya. Had the wings all done up nicely then had to touch up and lost the work. Didn't feel like fixing it.

825 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 HMS Victory, Airfix gift set of the 1956 original kit. Painted with the Humbrol paints included in the gift set. For the black lines on the hull I used Xtradecal transfer strips. Flags, nameplate and transom from the kit transfer sheet which was produced by Cartograph. Took a bit of work but IMHO anyway, it makes a presentable model. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
825 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Royal Navy deck Tractor from F4Models. Resin kit with some etch. Brush painted with Revell NATO Olive and glossed up with Klear. Lovely tiny little transfers and finished as one of HMS Illustrious's machines. Some parts a little fiddly but good shape and went together OK despite my cack handed use of cyano. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reini Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 RA-5C Vigilante BuNo156633/NK603 of RVAH-13, USS Enterprise, Operation Linebacker II, December 1972 The last of the Vigilantes to be lost in the Vietnam war. It was hit by 'Atoll' missile fired by MiG-21 - unfortunately killing the navigator and pilot becoming a POW. This was in fact the only Vigilante lost in aerial combat. Kit: Trumpeter RA-5C Vigilante (#01616) Scale: 1/72 Aftermarket: Eduard Photo Etch, Master pitot tube, Print Scale decals Paints: Vallejo Model Color, Model Air & Metal Color Weathering: Flory Models Wash, Mig weathering products Mixed feelings about this kit - but it's (more or less) a Vigilante, so that's cool Build thread: 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkSH Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Type VII C/41 U-Boat U998 1943 Here is my entry to the GB; Revell's 1/144 U-Boat. I was quite impressed with this kit, it went together very well with generally good fit, some of the finer parts were difficult to get off the sprues without damage and indeed some were already broken in situ. Built out of the box. All great fun for me especially as it gave me the opportunity to build outside of my normal sphere of interest and to really go to town on some weathering. Thanks once again to the Host, co-hosts and the other participants. Cheers, Mark. 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
