Price sounds correct for 1/48th scale. That makes less than 15 euros...

Mr Surfacer is sanded. You can also see on the first photo the Vallejo putty around the gun bay.
During the process on sanding, I've brokem a little element (and lost the broken part
)...
... But here I've used a technique that AFV modelers are using frequently: the acrylic 3D paint for tissue. With a toothpick I applied the color where the part was missing... Now, just to let dry a little bit

That takes me long time, but it's sanded!!!
As you can see on the lower surface of the fuselage, there were many bubbles in the resin at that location...

Thank you mate!
The ribs are also place on the lower surfaces; and I've closed the fuselage. This one asked for TONS of putty!!!

The last parts that will be used are removed from sprue. I have scratchbuilded a part; the one Eduard is providing in photoetch being too flat.
I've also tried to use the template proposed by Eduard for the wheel bays, but the result I've obtained was not satisfying enough; so I slightly modified the plastic parts.
The machineguns are ready; I Have not used all the PE elements. I can use little PE parts, but some here needed a microscope to be manipulated. Too much for me...
I know my limits!!!

« on: November 11, 2011, 09:31:32 AM »One question about SAAB- I have only Lansen, can we make all SAAB, not only fighters? Also we have consider Dutch aircrafts before, can we put it again on works?
All right about AFV, I understand and apologize for my previous statement. This is good demand to be placed on diorama!
For Saab we can indeed accept all Saab aircrafts, that will give us a nice variety of builds.
For Dutch aircrafts, it's also an interresting GB to do of course
And no problem for AFV mate, once again it's really something different from aircrafts...

« on: November 11, 2011, 08:49:36 AM »As well AFV are easy to do, maybe to start this alongside with other builds?
Well, it goes for AFV like for the aircrafts: some are easy to do, others not...
Anyway, techniques are different. The difficulty for AFV is not specially the building but more finition: weathering, etc. And more than aircrafts, to be valorized AFV asks to be placed on dioramas...
