Wim van der Luijt thanks for sharing Spanjaard! I couldn't make it so it is nice to be able to see some pics....

Treehugger Very inspirational stuff imo

Björn Svedberg Nice pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Christian Bruer Thx for sharing Spanjaard. Indeed it was a great weekend and I hope to welcome you again next year at the German Gamblers Clubstand!
Cheers, Christian

Konrad Limmer Very nice pictures and models! Thanks for sharing mate

Spanjaard thanks all, and specially to Christian. who knows, maybe even before SCM 2019

Christian Bruer would be great

Lode Schildermans Antonio, Thank you for the honor. You, some others and I know why.

Spanjaard thanks Martin and Ingo

JOHN THOMAS Very cool, Yippee

Neuling I fully agree with Lode and Martin.

Spanjaard thanks John and Neuling , really glad you also like it

Dutch Wow! Spanjaard, You definitely invested more time, effort and skill into your P-38J #5000 kit than I did, and your results are stunning. Your level of detail is outstanding for this crude kit. Just your cockpit canopy alone is worth learning from. I like the weathering and added detail, like gun barrels, wire aerials, etc. I still have to make my canopy frames, which I think I will do with silver stripe decal. I do not think I will add gun barrels or aerials. But I like your work! Great job! R/ Dutch

gorbygould That's pretty remarkable considering the scale. Well done Spanjaard!

Murad ÖZER Eyecandy

Spanjaard Thanks Dutch, gorbygould and Murad. this one is the first one finished of a special project, so stay tuned

JOHN THOMAS Great photos thanks

Greg Baker oh, you KNOW I'm watching this one... PE parts no less! Wow.

Spanjaard I was expecting you .
There is PE too in the 262 and the spitfire too, but there is more here....and six of them!

Greg Baker I'm keen to see what you do here. I barely started mine, so I want to steal all your good ideas. The sweet kits are... sweet, aren't they?

Spanjaard Very much. Only Platz can be considered better. Eduard ones are ok, although engraved detail is too deep for that scale.

Spanjaard Zero may take a while to be started, though. Need to finish Mustang, mosca and seagladiator first

Daniel Klink I'm in

Spanjaard Welcome Daniel, but it may take a while.... The others (started already in this project) will be finished before I can start the zeros

Martin Oostrom Great work on the twins! I like the red one

Spanjaard thanks Martin.
the truth is that most of the boxes in this project have two planes, so more twins coming

Spanjaard i discovered too late that Brengun has a PE set for this box... it could have made a nice interior. well, maybe i can use it with the 4 "spare" Komets i still have

Lode Schildermans You're as mad as I am on microscopic details. Very nice done, Spanjaard

Spanjaard thanks, that is a great compliment

Greg Baker Wow... very nice indeed. I know what it takes to make these little suckers look like that too...

Spanjaard Indeed

Spanjaard And thanks

Erik Leijdens Amazing work in this tiny scale Antonio

Stefan Schacht Hallo Spanjaard, nice start, count me in. Cheers Stefan

Spanjaard welcome Stefan. happy to see you here i hope you will like it

Lode Schildermans Man, this is so tiny. Nice start, Spanjaard

Martin Oostrom You Sneaky Spaniard!
1/144 huh? Inspired by Greg? She does look nice

Spanjaard thanks, actually the project "airgroup"was started about 6 months ago... there are a few more planes on it. some not yet started

Gordon Sørensen And adding rigging in 1/144th? Very impressive, Spanjaard!

Spanjaard Thanks Gordon

Martin Oostrom Petie 2 times 2?

Spanjaard it is an option.... thanks

Lode Schildermans Spanjaard, a question. What paint do you use?

Spanjaard interior is tamiya acrylics, outside is Alclad airframe aluminium. i should have polished more the plastic, and it would have been even better.

Lode Schildermans Not easy to polish on such small surfaces. I am very satisfied with MrPaint. Comparable with alclad

Spanjaard not easy, but possible.... like doing the rigging of certain ship i have just seen... with flags and all, for sure not easy either
never used Mr Paint, but i will have it in mind, Alclad does give good result, but it is not exactly healthy stuff

Lode Schildermans Lol, MrPaint neither. As for rigging, you could a biplane

Spanjaard Well, there is 3 in this project sea gladiator, I-15 Chato and Nieuport, the last one is not WWII, but I was asked to add some biplanes to the project

Cuajete Coincidentally I have read this now, many months later. It's exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you very much, Spanjaard!

Spanjaard you are very welcome Cuajete. a mandar

Ingo F That was me Spanjaard.
Igi87

Spanjaard great!!!!! finally thanks

Ingo F Thank you!

Cuajete My apologies to Ingo F. I should have confused this thread with another one.
However, I am glad that my answer has been useful so that the right person could have seen the Spanjaard's help. And thanks to Spanjaard I have also found these figures that I was looking for a long time ago

Ingo F Nah, you dont need to apologise, everything is alright.

Spanjaard i am happy i could help two people instead of one
I probably mixed both conversations in one in my mind

Cuajete

Peter Hardy Choppa? Were you offering them directions? They were obviously lost!

Choppa Nutta haha no, I was just leaning against them pretending they were mine lol

Spanjaard thanks a lot Choppa, really appreciated

Djordje Nikolic Nice Ferrari! Wasnt one recently sold for $50mil or something?

Spanjaard thanks. I think i could part ways with my model for that price
yes, i think i have seen something in the news about that.... it is one of the most beautiful cars ever build. i think i will need to do another one one day

Djordje Nikolic I think the owner of the real one should buy your model for 1/10th of the price, just to keep it inside of the house!

Choppa Nutta I think 1'24th of the price would be more appropriate
Still though one of the best looking Ferraris around

Funny how the best things in life begin with F ....
Fun, funk, Floyd, flamenco, fudge, Ferrari, fire, among other things

Spanjaard friends of course among other things.....
yes, 1/24th of the price of the real one would be welcome

Spanjaard thanks Ingo, Tom and Choppa. this is a two years old build... almost a total disaster, but still one of my favorite builds.... i intend to do it again one day!!!

Peter Hardy Still a beautiful build Spanjaard, I'll confess to looking it over from time to time.

Spanjaard thanks a lot Peter, glad you like it so much

Mike Grant That's REALLY nice.

Daniel Klink Looks great Spanjaard...Absolutely authentic look

Spanjaard thanks a lot Daniel!

Maurizio Pessina wow Spanjaard, great work, very realistic, beautiful the wheels and the weathering!

Spanjaard thanks Maurizio, very glad you like it

scalemates works again

Spanjaard thanks, i could not post for a while. and I could not even delete that "test" when finally I got one

scalemates yes, I think all actions were broken. (including adding to stash)

Spanjaard thanks for fixing it!

Spanjaard thanks Alec. i do not have the plan clearly defined for it. but i intend to use some lights on it. time circuits, plutonium meter, front lights... we will see. got some tiny SMD Leds . and Kees Kleijwegt build was really inspirational I even got some electrical diagrams from him (thanks again Kees)

Alec K Nice! This will be another masterpiece

Spanjaard thanks, for the time being, is just a bunch of pieces

Alec K

Stefan Fraundorfer I love Back to Future and looking forward to see the finished Delorean. Have much fun Spanjaard.

Spanjaard thanks a lot Stefan. unfortunately, this one will be on hold for a while due to lack of time and energy.

d hadley I can't wait to see you finish this one!

Spanjaard thansk d hadley... but it is on hold at the moment. i will come back to it as soon as i can. not going to be in shelf of doom

Peter Hardy So, what are you saying Spanjaard? You are rich now?????

Martin Oostrom Not anymore. He's bought that fancy airbrush

Peter Hardy Easy come, easy go!

Spanjaard Ha ha ha ha

Gordon Sørensen Some nice models there, Spanjaard! Like Kerry and Peter said, sometimes it is nice to look back and see how far we have come in our abilities...

Spanjaard indeed i hope i have learnt a thing of two since those models were done

Peter Hardy Ha, I am still trying to achieve what you did 30 years ago! I still go back to the Kawasaki KR 500, some great ideas you have put into place with that build. Ok, airbrushes make the big improvement but your ideas and approach were spot on. Yes Spanjaard, I am still impressed with the bike! I now have two of them in my stash with a third lost in the mail.

Spanjaard yes, i have that in my stash too, i will love to do again the KR500 but with alclad and airbrush, rather than humbrol and hairy brush i did a long time ago

scalemates they are linked to generic topic: "Battlestar Galactica". Will add a group "Battlestar Galactica" and we will create topics under this group

Spanjaard thanks Tim

Kerry Cox WHAT. ? You have skills that I am sure Christian would want. PE is a world apart, and practice makes it better.

Peter Hardy Looks like 307 before my comment Spanjaard. It's official, your in esteemed company now Mate!!

Spanjaard Thanks Kerry and Peter
i was looking at the number of comments on top of the page (previous comments), which of course does not include the ones in the screen, so yes, it is more than 300

Kerry Cox LOL. And counting.

Dmitry Borisov Excellent work!

Sebastian Meyner Great work mate

Cuajete Now a comments more. Congratulations one more time!

Spanjaard spasivo Dimitry and gracias Cuajete
