Francisco Maldonado SimõesLovely work! This is a masterpiece! Do you have any contact with Marabu?

Vladimir KafkaFrancisco, I already replied to your question elsewhere - you can contact him on Modelforum.cz, nick MARABU. He is active there almost daily, as far as I can tell.

Francisco Maldonado SimõesOh yes! It was you! Thanks!I have already registered there, i have sent him a message, got no reply! 🙁 Maybe they are out of business. It's a shame, they had good products!
Great work on the Swordfish!

Vladimir KafkaFrancisco, they are (or rather he is, as this is a one man show AFAIK) most definitely not out of business. What is that thing you need to know btw?

David ThorThat doesn´t look like a 1:72 at all. Rather like a 1:48! Great work! 😄

Vladimir KafkaChristian, curiosity killed the cat. In fact I was writing my friend about my current stomach flu😉

Christian Bruerah now we know - good and speedy recovery Vladimir! Ah and by the way - excellent, clean and sharp work on your Stringbag. Looks very life like! What do you use for rigging?
Cheers, Christian

Vladimir Kafkathanks all!
Christian, thanks. 0,12 fishing line, painted with Agama alcohol gunmetal. Strings are threaded though holes in the top wing. Same method on all my biplanes except the Gladiator.

Christian BruerThx Vladimir, I use it too on my ship models. Have you ever heard of Rigg that Thing? A monofilament in different sizes made by Uschi.

Alistair GrahamI have had the Tamiya 1:48 floatplane in my loft since the time it was launched and never built it, i did not think my modelling skills were ready to tackle it (why did i buy it?) this is inspiring me to get a ladder out and find it

Kerry COXAlistair, Have you got the PE "brace wires" for the 1/48 kit, ?, and I believe they are bought separately, made by Tamiya
15 April 2016, 21:58
Alistair GrahamI must have had it somce my boys were about 13/15, so about 12/14 years old model
15 April 2016, 22:01
Kerry COXThe Rigging 'wires' from Uschi are the thing to use for the ultimate result for sure. 🙂

Alistair GrahamI recently bought the eduard Fokker Eindeker to ease me into rigging.
15 April 2016, 22:02
Alistair GrahamI was inspired by a recent magazine article of the 1/72 Airfix eindekker but my eyes suit the larger scale, lol

Urban GardiniAlistair, the PE brace wires from Tammy is indeed correct as they should be flat on the stringbag so you should use those instead of any other round thread/wire.

Kerry COXThey were "aerodynamically" engineered steel strips, as seen on all "Tiger Moths" 🙂

Burkhard DWonderful. Doesn't look like 1/72 at all. Superbly clean build and intricately detailed. 👍👍👍👍
