Another great addition to your collection Ian.


I know the Panzer putty worked well, but is it any better than using blue tack? It looks very expensive in comparison so is it worth the extra pennies?

That's an excellent 111 Ian! The winter camo looks great with a realistic worn look.


Hard to believe you are-scribed it yourself - that looks factory!

That's an ambitious re-scribing project, but superbly done. A very impressive result, Ian.

That's a really nice build. I like the winter camo scheme. It is really striking.


The stand really sets it off too.


Well done!

Cracking job Ian. The winter camo looks superb ......... and some serious re-scribing. What tool do you use for that. I'd like to have a go at that on my MIG-21 but I'd probably screw it up:confused:

Hi Dave I think it works better than blue tac but like you say it is expensive. There is a cheaper version on the market so you may want to take a look at that one. Forgot its name at the moment but will look it up for you.

Hi Peter I use a Tamiya scribing tool, a pin scribe and Dymo tape to keep the lines straight.

That looks huge already! I have the 1:32 one. Might have to sell it though... :sad: probably too big for the space that I have. BTW, the winter camo looks absolutely stunning. I am thinking of doing this on Erich Hartmann's Bf 109, with a winter camo with the hairspray technique

Hi Ian


Great finish to a superb build. The Heinkel looks great, and whilst this build might be OOB, what with the rescribe and the multi-layered paint scheme, this was far from straight forward.


Gong for sure


Cheers
