Another little Tintin appetizer... Cowboy Tintin... on a horse. Not much to say besides I painted it with a brush. Thought about a white horse, then a mixed one... settled on brown. 🙂

I decided to branch out on my Tintin collection to include small... appetizer projects. The Blue Lotus is my favourite Tintin album, so this one seemed like a no-brainer. I decided to stick to my theme of using images from the interior panels and not the cover. Not much to show from a build perspective. All designed in 3D and printed out. The trickiest part was trying to re-produce the decal to go around the vase. I had to use images from several sources/perspectives and manipulate them into one unified image. Luckily 1/72 scale can be a bit forgiving. 😉

Here’s a question. On a Spitfire, can the little door under the canopy be opened during flight if the canopy is still closed? Or did the canopy have to be open to open the door? I’m planning a little project and wondering if I can just leave that door open, or if I have to leave the whole canopy open.

Yeah. They all look MUCH better with figures. With these latest two (the canoe and the German police motorbike w/ sidecar) I'm now down to my last previously finished project in need of an upgrade - the DHC Chipmunk. Since I got an updated kit (arguably better than the ancient Airfix one) I wanted to give that one another go right from the spures.

Y'know Alex, because I had that extra 2CV base sitting on the bench, I accidentally glued the grass/train tracks to it because I wasn't paying attention. Luckily I was able to peel it off before the glue set and re-apply it to the actual Model-T base. Whew!

I'm hardly a prefectionist... but my collector instincts would drive me crazy every time I saw an oversized Tinitin on my shelf. I've actually spent quite a bit of time trying to determine the perfect 1/72 scale size of Tintin and his friends. It took a bit of trial and error, but I've more or less settled on it now. The trick to making sure all the figures are more or less the same is done by comparing the relative size of his egg-shaped head~

Thanks guys! I don't want to spam Scalemates TOO badly, so I'll dole out my rescued/refurbished/upgraded build in a few batches. As for this one... I really did like my scratchbuilt first attempt, but after building a 3D model off the same plans and then printing it... well, now I REALLY love it. 🙂

It looks so easy when you see the final result. But scrolling through the album gives a good idea of all the modifications and scratch build needed to transform regular kits to a Tin Tin cartoon tank. And the result would have made Hergé proud. Thanks for sharing the journey to the moon with us, Greg. Outstanding as usual

Thanks Lode. After I finished the tank, I was kind of wondering why I bothered to start with a kit… by the end there was almost nothing left of the original kit. I'm happy with the result though, and it is kinda about the journey, right? 🙂

It's amazing how much easier a well-printed part is to work with. The first time I did this there were gaps and holes and other errors, but this time the parts are all stable and the seams are easy enough to close.

thanks for the heads up Greg. Loved your F-5A finish. The colours looks amazing. I see what up mean about scaling. I'll have to plan some sort of forced perspective thing when the Boeing hoves into view for photos.

Thanks Gary. I'll tune it to see if you can manage the forced perspective... it would be nice for this kit to have something to contribute. I should be kinder and not let my hatred for off-scale kits get the best of me... it's just when they lie about their size that I can't stand it. 😉
Meanwhile... we have some grey paint over decals... it's an experiment.

Stage one complete - carefully mask decals and paint over them... only time will tell if the tape will pull the decals off. I'm hopeful that so long as the tape doesn't go over the edge of the decal, some careful removal will do the trick.

I had a dream last night that I purchased two actual P-51 Mustangs… despite not having a pilot’s license. I was pestering a car mechanic I know to help me take a look at the engine and then I was super excited about posting up a new 1:1 scale model project on Scalemates. 🙂
Luckily I woke up just as I was trying to figure out where I was going to store the planes… and before I had to explain any of it to my wife. 😉
