Sometimes you just need a little side-project...

Yes they are. A combination of resin moulds and 3D printed resin.

Motorised? That's insane! In the best possible way 🙂

A comment from F_IV on one of MY 1/144 scale builds!? Made my day!

It is a bit of a challenge to get a dc motor into my builds, but all my Voir et Savoir builds have them. Including four motors going in the B-24 (Voir et Savoir 35 - B-24J | Album by strobez (1:144)). The one that was the biggest challenge though was getting a motor inside a 1/144 Cessna 172 (AREA 88 : Kamikaze (Cessna 172) | Album by strobez (1:144) ). Unlike most WWII war birds, the engine on the Cessna is flat on top… which makes it VERY hard to squeeze in a round motor. 😉

Thanks Roland! I'm just scared of having a 1/32 scale model box fall over on me and crush me to death. At 1/144 scale you still get to push them around and tell them who's boss! 😉

And in case anyone was wondering if the propellor spins...

And your pro-smallscale comment made my day! 😄 Great model by the way!!! 👍👍👍 I really love Tintin since my childhood days until now.

Greg Baker
Hah! Thanks Ralf! I'm always glad to bring a smile to someone's face. 🙂

That worked out great. Lovely presentation and a very neat solution for the motor too. I definitely would not have guessed it was 1/144!
