Oh oh oh JA!😄 Welcher Grundbausatz ist das? Kitty Hawk? Sieht jetzt schon klasse aus!

Christian Ristits
Cool, bin gespannt!

OOB yea right!!! Not by the time you finish with it! 🙂

Bernhard Schrock
A lot of free seats in the first row: you are welcome🙂
Holger: Kittyhawk, ein sehr guter Bausatz. Nur an wenigen Stellen Verbesserungspotential und korrekturbedürftig.
Glenn: this morning I add the "extension" nearly. I could not avoid chainging the tips of the wings, pylons for the 70mm rockets🙂

Great work mate, Always a pleasure watching your work! Hey would you like to build my Unicraft Blohm & Voss BV 188 kit? 🙂

Has Glenn, that was a good one.😉 But Berhard would make a gem out of it! (And i´m convinced you too)

Hallo Bernhard,
sieht wieder echt top aus. Ich befürchte jedoch das du die beiden Steuerknüppel des Piloten un des Copiloten verkehrt herum angeklebt hast, sieht zumindest auf den Bildern so aus.
Bin auf weitere Ergebnisse gespannt.
🙂

Thx Mates.
Florian: Danke, du hast gute Augen und Recht. Verkehrt montiert: die Knöpfe müssen nach hinten zeigen. Schon korrigiert. Übrigens: don't hesitate to tell me if there are any other bugs🙂

I´m curious about this one. how does it fit?

Bernhard Schrock builds out of box? Whats next? Dogs can fly? Bernhard, I adore Your work. But I honestly believe that You are unable to build anything OOB - even if its only a "Ueberraschungsei"... 😄 And thats just wonderful and amazing.

Marko
Very nice

Überraschungsei haha lol😄

A little bit of progress: rotors. I decided to use a another way to completing the main rotors as in the instruction described? For better handling I completed each blade separately. Both locating pins in the inside of the blade where removed and replaced with a little piece of plastic as "stopper" for the shaft of the rotor head.

Bernhard Schrock
H. Wi: obviously you know me, my models and that an OOB-project is indeed nearly impossible for me🙂
Despite of the few "foreign" plastic parts for me this is still OOB🙂
P.S. I know some fellows from Frankfurt but I don't know you. Maybe we have met?
2 July 2016, 17:02
H. Wi
No we haven't. Wish we did. Now I'm in Wiesbaden. And we are in semifinals! 😄

Yestarday I noticed that my blades has wrong colors...🙁
Top side should be grey and lower side should be black minus leading edge in grey.
Because of the very good pictures/walk around unfortunately I had to "upgraded" the project.

O.M.G. Bernhard your a micro surgeon! Your not a "rivet counter" your a rivet maker! Hail to the King 🙂

What? No more OOB? What happend?

Bart Goesaert
walk-arounds, the killer of all OOB's 😉

Quickly quickly quickly = both halves of the turret glued together and forgotten the metal ball (ballast) = arghrrrr. But not all is lost. You see the auxiliary hole on the bottom of the turret (closed already), lead micro balls and the "special tool" to apply the micro balls through the hole. 🙂🙂🙂

Nice paintjob. Not too worn but also not too tidy.

Beatiful result! Must keep your way of making the anti ski texture in mind for my own Viper. It looks very convincing. My compliments.

What a mean lookin' pistol packin' snake ! Very authentic looking result, outstanding work !

Completed! I did not expect that I would have so much fun building the Viper. This kit is very well detailed and despite the complicated division into the parts everything fits. I was especially fascinated about the decals: applied with Mr Setter from Gunze on matte surface there was no silvering and the carrier film is definitely invisible. I recommend this kit for everyone.

Holger Kranich
Wie? Wo? Was? Schon fertig? Ich dachte, ich könnte diesen Bau noch etwas länger genießen... Sehe ich richtig, daß Du ein helles braun für das washing benutzt hast?
18 July 2016, 05:26
Bernhard Schrock
Moin Holger. You Mr. Adlerauge🙂. Aber nicht nur. Auf einem Stück Trennstreifen (aus PVC für Ordner) platziere ich im Dreieck im Abstand von ca 5 cm drei Farbkleckse: mittelgrau Humbrol, schwarz Mig und mittelbraun Mig. Innerhalb dieses Dreiecks mische ich mir die Brühe für Washing zusammen. Wie du vermutest entstehen hierbei mehrere Farbtöne und unterschiedlich gesättigt (Verdünner) die ich erratisch über das Modell verteile. Fazit: nicht eine Farbe und nicht überall gleich stark.
P.S. Sorry für schon fertig🙂 Next Project wird länger dauern, versprochen. Hab gestern die Weichen gestellt: polnischer 2-mot aus den 30ger Jahren... Der Bausatz ist alles andere als gut🙁
18 July 2016, 05:55
Marko
Brilliant.
18 July 2016, 06:06
Holger Kranich
Wadde mol... Humbrol und Mig? Du mischst doch nicht Enamel und Acryl? Oder meinst Du Mig Ölfarben? Bin verwirrt, muß an Tamiya Thin schnüffeln...😢

Aber eine sehr interessante Vorgehensweise, was ein Washing angeht! Copy - Paste!😢
18 July 2016, 07:31
Bernhard Schrock
Mig Enamel, die Serie der Washings wie "for Landing gear", "engine grime" etc.
18 July 2016, 07:57
Holger Kranich
Ja so wird ein Schuh draus, Engine grime nutze ich auch sehr gerne, was washings angeht.

Hells yea man looks sick u made my night I love it, can I ask what is with the little ball bearings in the q-tip next the the front cannon turret?
18 July 2016, 11:47
Bernhard Schrock
uncle chop chop: I'v forgotten the metal ball (ballast) in the turret. To protecting the tailsitting I drilled a hole on the bottom of the turret (closed already) and filled the turret with little lead micro balls (probably from a shell) applying them with the "special tool" (q-tipp)🙂

I have this sweet dreams that my Viper will turn out just as beautiful as this one.
