The Madhatter Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hi all This is my first post here after being a long time lurker. It's not your usual sort of subject here but it maybe of interest to some Its the all resin and PE Industria Mechanika "Dragonfly". Scaled at 1/32, it's not small but not to big either. Perfect size. The base is scratch built and has working landing lights. The wood on the Dragonfly are wood grain decals from Germany (I can't remember the brand sorry) and the wood on the base is cut up strips of balsa stained with Vallejo "European Dust" acrylic wash. The stone is a rubbery display mat by Tamiya glued on and cut to size.So, enough words, here are the pics:[/url]Thanks for looking everyone.Si F`s are my favs, cib2265, Hartmann352 and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
