Vasilij Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Hello and thank you very much for joining this fantastic forum. Very briefly something about me before I come to the rollout: I am publisher of ZigarrenZone (cigar Blog in German language) and the online magazine FlashCigar. After a break of about 8 years in model making I now find from time to time some time for model making. Sorry for my English My model presented here is the FM-2 Wildcat, 1/72 from Arma Hobby. It is a great kit. I mounted the windshield upside down. I made the clouds from absorbent cotton, fixed them with hairspray and painted them with the airbrush. I put the airplane on a pencil and mounted it on the base plate. I hope you like my first model. Of course there are some things to make even better Brand new I have created a new social network: scalemodel.zone Edited December 2, 2020 by Vasilij 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

112 Squadron Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) Nice Model. I like the way you displayed it within the coulds. I see from your post that you share two habits with me. Building 1/72 planes and smoking cigars. Your Wildcat will be perfect as soon as you fix the windscreen. I wonder how that little mishap happened 🤔 Did you smoke a cigar while you were attaching the windscreen?😀 Edited December 2, 2020 by 112 Squadron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I had the idea to let the model fly above the clouds. 🤣 It's great that you are also a cigar connoisseur. Great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
