Mr Core Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Just finished the Monogram kit of Tom Daniel's Red Baron. Scratchbuilt some parts but not that many. It was a fun build and the kit wasn't as bad as I expected. Hope you guys like it
TooOld Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Looks really cool ! It's nice to see the old TD models once in a while . Nice job Cor , and thanks for sharing it with us .
cobraman Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Looks like you did a fine job on that kit.
JasonFL Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I always thought this was a cool looking kit.ive never built one personally but I hope to one day and I think you did a great job with it. Just curious but what are all the parts you scratch built, everything looks like its all supposed to be right where it is?
jcbigpaw Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Great job. I've always loved this kit but I've never had one turn out this nice.
Mr Core Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 Thanks everyone. If you want to build one, just do it The kit isn't as far as bad as you would expect. Just curious but what are all the parts you scratch built, everything looks like its all supposed to be right where it is? The kit comes with 2 imo terrible, out of scale spandau. I threw them away and scratchbuilt one myself on the passenger side. I also made some kind of 'steering' for the spandau in the interior, but it's barely visible on the pictures. The grill is opened and I made a new intake with 3 pieces of tank munition

crazyjim Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Curse you, Red Baron. Nice looking builds, Cor.
High octane Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Nice job on the Baron as I built one years ago and wish that I still had it. Doesn't the helmet come chrome plated anymore like it used to? I have been thinking about building another one, however I also think about building everything else under the sun too.
Mr Core Posted September 20, 2012 Author Posted September 20, 2012 Thanks to all of you guys Nick: I don't know if you can call it chrome, but yes the helmet comes plated I removed it for aesthetic reasons. And besides, the real Red Baron's helmet isn't in chrome, but (flat) aluminium
