Imagine youre are a solider and with your squad on a mission and then you here this noise ...........

Yeah, pretty "Intimidating" and you'd want to be somewhere else as soon as you could if you were the 'enemy'.:-/

Ivo Fanczi
I dont want to be the enemy in this situation ..because it ends not good.😉

Hi Ivo, nice start! This Trumpi kit should be a pig to build, can you confirm?

I once had the pleasure to see two Hogs using their boarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrdcannon live. Very impressive! Especially the impact on the ground... Huge amounts of soil where blown up.

Ivo, I am most impressed with your work mate. Especially when you were worried about the 'lack of detail' in the standard cockpit. !!!
You have done an exceptional job in bringing it to life mate. 👍 🙂
Well done. 🙂

Ivo........👍 🙂 mate!!.............A suggestion if I may. 🙂
Have you got some really fine drills. ?
If you have, maybe you could add just a bit of 'depth' to the 30mm barrels ? 👍
Your call of course mate. Cheers. 🙂

Ivo Fanczi
I think i know what you mean.😉

Kerry COX
Just a "touch" not too deep, but just enough to make them look like they mean business. 🙂
27 October 2015, 05:30
Ivo Fanczi
Ok,i was thinking the same. 🙂

Meinst du wegen klarlack? Das Thema hat sich heute morgen erledigt der ganze Flieger war nach dem lack auftragen so wie mit dickem staub belegt ( komplett hellbraun ) konnte das Modell nur mit einem washmittel von Vallejo retten, deswegen sind die Masken weg.
1 November 2015, 12:55
Ivo Fanczi
Bei der A-10 sag ich NEIN zu klarlack. 🙂

Holger Kranich
Also kein washing und hoffen das die Decals nicht silbern!
1 November 2015, 15:21
Holger Kranich
Obwohl du ein washing mit Pigmenten probieren könntest. Oder mit Wasserfarben.Sollte beides gehen!
1 November 2015, 15:24
Ivo Fanczi
Testen ausprobieren und hoffen .😉

Ein kleines Bieropfer an den Gott des Klebers könnte beruhigend wirken wenn Du loslegst!😄

Yes mate, the Gods of modelling are on your side.
Well done and put the chipping on the windshield frame down to 'air flow" lol. 👍 🙂

It turned out a mean looking machine Ivo. 🙂 👍

Ivo Fanczi
Thanks Kerry, but you must notice that the decals in this kit are the pure horror they are so thin its not normal. I say it to you before you think what is he doing? there will be some decals that get broken by trying to put them on the right place!!!! 🙂 (two found there way into the trash )
7 November 2015, 23:50
Kerry COX
I can remember when decals were as thick as the stick on stickers you peeled from the backing paper, and nothing could soften them at all.
I have found one thing I use with thin decals to help them "Move" more easily is a dab of 'clear fix' glue mixed with the decal softener, (A clear paper glue) and being water based, it thins out just enough under the decal to give it more 'slide', and then when the decal is in the place you want, just some gentle pressure with a damp cloth or cotton tip will squeeze out the excess and no 'silvering'.🙂
That tip is worth $40.00 please, or free to anyone who can use it. LOL 🙂 👍

Thank you Kerry , i try it but i wont give you the 40$ 🙂

Kerry youre tip is fantastic but these decals dont move .I tryed it on an old model and it works but on the A10 its impossible to move them sorry mates this kit is one of the best but the decals are much to thin. I will only have the decals on the front of the plane (just for the case you would think why i didnt use the decals )once again thanks Kerry for youre awesome tip it is 40$ worth.😉

I fully expect a thumbs up as payment Ivo, and I am so pleased to know you had a go at what I suggested, and it only gets easier with more practice and preparation beforehand.👍
Cheers. 🙂
