Hobbyboss 1:48 Ta152 C-11

[matto21]

Started in August as a "quick build" but didn't quite work out that way!


Lovely kit to build, great fit of parts and most importantly, it captures the graceful lines of the Ta152 perfectly.


I painted it using a combination of Tamiya, Ammo and Mr Hobby acrylics and it's my first attempt at a more complex mottle camo.






































No aerial wire [didn't have the patience!], footstep [carpet monster got it!] or hooked cross.


Thanks for your interest, comment and input into the WIP thread.

That's come out very nicely indeed. Good job on the paint too. These quick builds never turn out that way do they


BTW an aerial wire would be easy if you wanted to do it. There was no tensioner, so with the hood open it would be slack and a simpler thing to do. Here's a detail of one of my old models showing a slack antenna I did with nylon monofilament fishing line (0.5Kg breaking strain).


Cheers

Great build Matt, that mottle paint work looks the part. I think Steve's suggestion of adding the aerial wire in a slack fashion would finish it off nicely.
