Pearl Harbor in

B
I'm working on the P-40B,it's coming along nicely. As you can see I worked on the cockpit,added the wings and stabilizers. I haven't used any putty and it looks like I won't have to. Thanks for looking 😄

B
I highly reccomend this kit,so far the P-40 is nice,the Zero looks great but we'll see how it is when I start that one

Duncan Cook
I hope your Diorama is not directed by Michael Bay. 😉
Looks good, I heard that the Zero has some problems with the fuselage, because it's not straight.

B
Haha 🙂 that movie wasn't that bad,very inaccurate though...the zero seems to be fine we'll see though

Adam Carter
A friend of mine built the zero and he said it was a great little kit. The legs are very brittle though and prone to snapping

B
I'm putting them on the stand so it looks like the P-40 is chasing the Zero

Hunter Cummins
Damit brandon there you go again 😉;)😛
Makimg me want an aircraft kit 😉;)

B
Haha 🙂 I don't know how you armor guys do it,tank kits look very challenging and painting them by brush looks hard maybe I'll eventually get one 😄

Hunter Cummins
Hahaha they aint that hard really but they arent as easy tobuild as 1/72? Aircraft 😉 and id recomend getting 1/72 scale tank to start witn 😉;)😛
And the yellow green is way to yellow (just sayin;))

B
I'm going to the hobby shop later with my money,we will see what I come back with lol

Hunter Cummins
Hahahha im going tommorrow
And if you want a model tank
Gofor the dragon 1/72 scale tanks😄 because they are about 2 dollars or lower😄😄
And it still leaves a lot of money for aircraft 😉;);)😛

Duncan Cook
2 Dollars?
They cost up to 30 Euros up here. the 1:72 ones.

B
I think you mean the airfix,at my hobby shop they are 6 dollars for the 1/76 ones

B
New Pictures are up

Hunter Cummins
Damn my stupid letrer keys 😉
I meant 20 dolars for the dragon model tank kits such as this one

Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. N (Dragon 7386, 1:72)

Adam Carter
2 dollars is about a pound isn't it? God we get ripped off in Britain, a 1/72 dragon tank is about ten pounds!

Hunter Cummins
Adam I messed up because I forgot the zero lol
Its 20 usd here for a 1/72 dragon model tank

Adam Carter
That's makes more sense lol.

Hunter Cummins
Hahajz I thought it would lol

B
I'm starting to paint the bottom,pics will be up,later

Hunter Cummins
Cant wait m8😄

B
New pic is up

Adam Carter
Quickest build progression ever! I thought I was quick lol

Duncan Cook
You are improving, you should take more time when you take your pictures.
More light and more patience should help. 🙂

Hunter Cummins
Wow brandon
You have lightning skills lol

B
Thanks Hunter! 😄

Hunter Cummins
No problem 😄

B
I went to the hobby shop and got this: The Dambusters Avro Lancaste..ecial) (Airfix A50138, 1:72)

Hunter Cummins
How much was she

B
60 dollars,totally worth it it has 275 parts and paint,glue and brushes

Hunter Cummins
Wow lol
Im getting 2 airfix airplanes tommorrow 😄😄😄😄😄 im so excited 🙂🙂
Check my page 😉 you might be proud of me

B
I almost finished the P-40 and I'm starting the Zero,once I finish both,I'll decal them at the same time. Pics will be up soon

Hunter Cummins
Yaaaaaaay

B
Pics are up

B
The pilot was to big for the Zeros cockpit,so I cut his legs off so he could fit

Hunter Cummins
Man that poor pilot lol

B
Haha 😉 how's he going to fly? That might be a problem....lol

Hunter Cummins
Thats a really big problem 😉 lol

B
He must of been the first to get shot down

Hunter Cummins
Good story haha
It fits the picture necause there is an american P-40 on his ass lol

B
You're right about that! lol

Hunter Cummins
Hahaha ikr lol

Adam Carter
So i take it you guys are in the states, is Airfix hard to get hold of? Over here its everywhere! Great build btw

Hunter Cummins
Yup we are in tge states lol and airfix is really common here wear I am 🙂

Duncan Cook
I love Airfix, cheap and they have good quality now.
I also like the old kits because I love to sand and to putty.

Hunter Cummins
Their new kits are amazing 😄

B
@ Adam I'm also in the states,airfix is very common. At my local hobby shop,they have so many airfix kits they have a whole section of the shop called the "Wall of Airfix" and they're cheap to.

Hunter Cummins
They are like 10 dollars for the 1/72c basic kits and the starter sets are 12 dollars

B
The guy at my hobby shop said the 1/72 Lancaster is a starter set,I don't think it is even though it comes with glue and paint

Hunter Cummins
It cant be lol
It has 300 parts haha

B
I don't think someone's going to spend 60 dollars on there first model

Hunter Cummins
Yea me neither haha

B
2 new pics. I painted the engine of the Zero jet black,once it's dry I'll dry brush it with a steel color.

Duncan Cook
I think it would bebetter if you use a very dark metal collour, pure black is too dark in my opinion.

Duncan Cook
[img1] Here is a good picture of the Engine.

B
I'm going to drybrush it

Hunter Cummins
That.s what I do

Adam Carter
It's good to see airfix flying the flag over there. I'm surprised it's a big brand, we always get the impression you just sit around making horrors out of Revell kits in the states!

Hunter Cummins
Lol I dont even build revell kits hahaha and airfix is pretty darn cool

Fabian D.
Is there even a big brand comming from the US? Revell Germany claimed a few years ago that they had 85% of the German market, which seems true if you have a look in our toy shops and department stores... and my stash 😉 .
Although buying one of their aircraft kits (when you don't know what's inside) is always a lottery 🙂
But what they've done in the last years in 1:35 was great... the offered kits quite new kits, with "better" decals and even cheaper than the originals

Robbie
Fabian - Revell is the closest big brand US modeling company that I know of and if I am wrong I am sure I will be corrected. In fact Hobbico bought Revell Germany and reunited the Revell brand a little over a year ago. Here is a link for more info

modelretailer.com/en..evell%20Germany.aspx

Brandon - looking good 🙂

Hunter Cummins
I think robb covered it all lol 😉

B
Thanks Robb,I'm decaling both planes now,once they're done I'll post pics

Fabian D.
Thanks for the info... i knew hobbico bought revell Germany, but not the "other" revell ... but as we have our own revell i have never really noticed one of their products ...

Hunter Cummins
Interesting
