This is the weird pirated ship I have been working on in the WIP section. I got a little carried away with the weathering and made it look weird. Now try find it in the fleet (or just this half) This is the other half (sorry for the bad photo)

Finished photos are in the Under Glass section

Thank you!

Holy cow, that is a nice paintjob! I can't stand the raised panel lines on Revell kits

Thanks!

Thank you! I really liked the American livery, saw it on WarThunder and had to make it. That spitfire is the Spitfire mk 1A. I can't say much for upping their game, considering I started modelling with these kits. Though I can say they are wonderful, and when I started Revell aircraft, I was sorely disappointed. I thought everything was as good as airfix.

I wouldn't say that... manners, not so much. Passive aggressive tendencies? Yes

Thank you! The raised panel lines make it a lot easier to keep straight though. If I had to paint that on a flat surface, no way it would look as clean.

ink, not chalk

Thanks ?

I only just realized, you can't tell what colour it is in these pictures. It is a dark (apparently) olive green from Vellejo model air, 71.007

Hey that looks pretty neat! I have to get myself one of these. I like the non branded tires, they are just a little different.

Oh the Piper would be cool! Could do a hot rod piper XD

I picked this up a few days ago. I decided to go back to my roots, and I hand painted this. No airbrush or spray paint except for when I airbrushed some Pledge floor gloss at the end. Paint is all vallejo and citadel.

A little update: I got impatient. I was going to do the panels via decals, but I had paint and an itch to work on this. I have to say (hand painted without any masking) the lines came out pretty straight. Have to do fix ups obviously, but I am pretty happy so far. The lower saucer lines look crooked, but that is because of the escape pods being raised. They will be painted a tan colour.

Ah ahaha yeah the corsair is a little... finicky. I did the 1/48 B17G. Hand painted it too... man I think I got carpal tunnel from that. I was thinking of doing an airfix 1/72 paul boultan defiant, but maybe I should do one of my old revell ones... You should pick one of those and do that. Get a little variation in this group/community build (not that cars a bad thing)

No problem, I will let you know which one when I figure that out for myself

Sooooo is that a no to only cars? The newer revell aircraft are just re pops, no new moulds. I have done a few of them, the Corsair being my favourite. That one however is such a pain to get the wings to sit right, so I would advise caution when looking at Revell aircraft. Love them still, but a little difficult.

what a fail...

Quick Question: MUST it be a car? I only recently (ish) started cars, but aircraft is something I can go back to?

Good start. Will be watching

Anyone else from NS? Looking for a club, or just people of the sort.

Or forced naps...

I can't stand the new batman but that batmobile is the stuff of dreams. Nice paint colour! I really want to do one of them.

Thank you! I used to love airfix. I really want to get back into aircraft building again. Used to do tons of airfix aircraft. Good prices and the quality is what you pay for, so I like them quite a bit.
