What are you working on right now?

here are the finished exhaust:


also i replace the front landing gear with one from a he 219, from my spare parts

 

i got me in to a little trouble, cos the ar 234's landing struts are too short, about 1/4 inch,so i have to add an extension for it, the problem is that the plane is tail heavy, very heavy and needed to add some counterweight on the nose, i just hope that the struts with the extension can hold the whole plane

 

I'm currently working on a US Stuart light tank by Tamiya. To make it appear unique I added a tarpaulin, but does anyone have some other ideas for extra details?

 

look at several photos and see your spare parts box and the rest to your imagination

 

Lots of ideas.Branches,bushes...etc. for camouflage.
Anything that wouldn't fit in the tank.Ammo crates,fuel drums,canvas bags stuffed with supplies.Helmets,rifles.
Spare parts such as tracks or wheels which also doubled as extra armor.
Everything I've mentioned is available as some type of kit.
Check out squadron.com.Search under ARMOR ACCESORIES.

 

i have to reinforce the strusts with piano wire, so they can hold the plane

 

1/72 SdKfz 232 fu 8-Rad.

 

Thanks, good ideas.

 

i almost finish the bv but i mispalce the canopy and i can not find it!!!!

a closer viewof the drop tanks

 

:angry: That is so frustrating!
My worst yet is managing to lose a complete kit I was halfway through converting (Tiger I to Sturmtiger). All I have now are the exhaust pipes... :cry:

 

how?
why?

 

It was in a box on the floor next our dining room table, along with the rest of my 'ready use' modelling stuff. Until my parents decided to tidy the dining room. I have not seen it since, and they claim no knowledge. The exhaust pipes were in with my modelling stuff, as they were under construction at the time.

 

arrggghhhh!!!
i really f*** this time
i was doing a p- 51 with the invasion stripes but i got the wrong silver paint and also i forgot to tape the cockpit and the antiglare strip in the enigne area :cry: :cry: :cry:

 

Great pics me262!

Hey, the checkered nose is good - what is your method for that?

 

)

i cut 1/8 squares of masking tape, i started the painting first the white then the black and last the silver, as you can imagine it was a mess using all that masking tape ( a lot of residual glues on all the masked surfaces :angry:

 

Well,the nice weather is here,so I'm taking a break from modeling.I have a shuttle Tydirium in the works at the moment.

 

i manage to buy the last glasss panels for my models' cabinet, so i will start to finish all my half started models!!!!!!

 

Me 262, some really nice pictures there. Thanks a lot for sharing. It's really nice to see how you complete a model piece by piece by photoghraphing all pieces. Great! And please, don't worry about the silver on the nose of the p-51. You can simply paint it over with flat black and I think it'll be allright.

Ricky, you must have been very upset when you lost the converted Tiger.. at least, I would have been!
