Bruce, I wish you a good time building more models with rigging!

I build 1:48 scale models. I use 0.14 mm fishing line for the rigging. This is another way to make rigging on a model, but this method is more suitable for larger scales (1:48, 1:32 ...)
For inspiration I send a link to one of my models with rigging: Roland D.VIb Czech Air Force | Album by KLuK (1:48)
(If you are interested you can find more models with rigging in my profile. )
19 June, 11:55
Bruce Huxtable
Wow! Inspiring work for sure, Ludvik! I believe that Eduard have PE for cable fittings, for use with rigging at 1:72. I'm not sure if would I dare try that, as I have enough trouble threading a needle!! I will definitely be adding rigging to several more of my biplane models. The Anatras Anasal is waiting patiently (gathering dust, like the one in the Prague Technology Museum).

As long as you learn or try something new on each next model you build, that is what counts. Then, you will find the "winning" formula and stick with it for a whilr, then learn something new and so on. We all have our own styles. For me the youtube videos online an AK FAQ book for aircraft helped a lot to clarify certain steps and processes.

Many thanks, Marcin. I'm using acrylics now for all new models, and for weathering older ones. Flat brushes for flat surfaces, and round for small details, and either paint type will give good results 👍

Hi Bruce, like what you've done so far, but might I suggest a bit of surgery on the Bren - if you remove the grip, it might match up better with the soldier's gun hand. Unfortunately, you may need to remove the fellows left arm in order to reposition it to support the gun 🙁
As for floating items, I usually move things around a bit until things "fit" on the ground a bit better - static grass is much stiffer than you think so you may need to clear some out for the box 🙂
13 May, 21:56
Bruce Huxtable
Hi Tyson, many thanks for your good advice. I've had to do careful surgery on other figures, to similarly make space, so I will take your advice 👍

Many thanks for your generous praise, Gabor and Guy. The detailed instructions emphasise the important symbolisms of the fabric designs, etc, so I had to try my best. I'm still tempted to re-visit some details....

Many thanks for your 'likes', everyone. I can recommend MasterBox figure sets. Always interesting,🙂

Looking through early figure sets (which I was pleased with, back then) there are lots of improvements that are crying out to be done.

The multi-piece coats are a bit tricky to fit, but with patience all worked out fine. Just one running repair to do, to fix a fragile bipod leg.

Today's progress, and I think it's finished. I opening up most of the vision slots, so it looks less like plastic.

Many thanks for your 'likes', mates. The kit required a lot of fettling to make things fit. The tyres and wheel hubs were a nightmare....

Máky thanks for your 'like', Villiers, but I have chickened out from dyeing the sail (your ship looks fantastic). Still lots to do, but getting there slowly.

I can't take credit for much of that. My Dad did 95% of it. As for stiffening the sails, the material was fairly stiff to begin with. I think the caffeine did the rest.

I'm sure your Dad would be pleased you have taken such good care of your shared efforts, John. 🙂👍

Many thanks, Zoltan. There are still things that could have been done better. Amazingly, the wrinkled decal and paint have dried back smooth! Soo lucky 🙂

Are you building a diorama for this?

Many thanks, Guy. Hi Mathias, they definitely need a winter landscape. It'll be a first for me, so let's see how it goes. One for later in the year, though.
