mpk Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hi guys. I found this old thing, I think I was making it for a kid. After 20+ years I am using it to test my new airbrush. The Iwata is like a Rolls Royce compared to what I am used to. I did this last night after working on a George all day. Just for fun. I've no idea how to colour it and this is just for fun. I've named this animal, Shaka Hi, in honour of our member who wanted me to get an Iwata all along. He was right. Oh I did learn an important lesson for later when I paint my aircraft. I dropped this thing 12 times. Tough as nails these dinosaurs. Uncarina, Bill_S, Mister J and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Peterpools Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Dale Enjoy your Iwata and I hope you have the RR insured to the max. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Thanks guys. He's got a wound on his right leg. I plan to make him, the dinosaur not Shaka, miserable. I know the kid from Nepal liked the dinosaur so I'm gonna make a little base for it and give it to him. Shaka HI and Joe66 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Paul Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Looks great! I was talking to Harv about it and he says the colors are bang on what he remembers them being when he used to try and ride them.. Keep up the great work.

Shaka HI Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 LOL..I'm eating a "light" dinner (Salad) and I basically spit a mouthful out on Paul's last post...

Paul I thought he had one as a pet, sort of like the Flintstones. David66, LSP_Paul and mpk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Dale, I fought with Pete to buy an Iwata air brush as my 40+ old Paasche -1H was way past retirement. I tried a Duel action Iwata, but I really wanted to stay with a single action unit, yet I wanted to finer control of a internal mix AB. Iwata had just come out with two new smaller ABs in the Revolution series: The HP-M1 & the HP-M2, both single action/internal mix. The best of both worlds. So I bought both of them, and I've never looked back. Iwata's just rule. Joel mpk, LSP_K2 and David66 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whack a saddle on it and you're sweet. Dale, I fought with Pete to buy an Iwata air brush as my 40+ old Paasche -1H was way past retirement.

I tried for no less than 8 years to get 3 specific cowbells.... From what I can tell, modelers are artists. I just see it. I'm still looking for that snare drum..... So pleased we got a pretty good instrument. One or two that suits us. Slightly off topic but I found a pic of Harvs sound system.. Yes, I remember the recording industry....

mpk Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Dale, Nice dino....but is that a Mk. I or II. ? MkII. Edited January 30, 2017 by mpk David66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe66 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Mk II...ok.....I wasn't quite sure, as the photos I have seen of the Mk II usually seem to show a mottled green/grey camo on the upper surfaces ...so this may be an early Mk II before the new pattern.... hehehe... Nice work ! Joe mpk and David66 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
