A6M2 Model 21, c/n 5374, Lae 1942
Thomas Lund replied to Miloslav1956's topic in Ready for Inspection
Beautiful !!! But number 14 this year ?!?!?!?!?!? 12 months or 2021 ?? Either way... damn... -
BTW one of the big questions for me is "what material is that"... perhaps we're out in a new "what's future called in my country" quest
-
2nd that... would be hugely appreciated !!! I'm looking at my starfighter, back to these metal work pictures, back to the starfighter all the while I am mumbling "hmmmmm"
-
Jawdropping work there !!! Huge respect... Is there anywhere one could find a "Metal working for dummies" to get started on using metal the way you do ???

1/32 Hasegawa Focke Wulf Fw-190F-8
Thomas Lund replied to Tolga ULGUR's topic in Ready for Inspection
Yeah, that was done on many occations to escape the advancing Russians. Usually the pilots had a good chance of getting out, but the ground crew - who often were good friends of the pilots - had a much smaller chance. One could be carried in the rear fuselage (where he should watch to to interfere with the control cables) and one on the lap of the pilot. There is a picture somewhere with a person in the rear fuselage, but I could not find it -

May 8th was the final day - I read it as it flew TO Sweden and crash landed and that was it. I think it is in the translation from the Czech (?) -
Beautiful work !!!

Breathtakingly crisp paint job - wow And such an interesting camo scheme - never seen that before... And I dont mean to be an a..hole, but do you mean flow TO Sweden ? They didn't repair it and fly it did they ? -
IMHO the Catalina never looked better than in the RDAF scheme - although it's postwar

Yes an overtree is mighty cheap, but I think that with a little care about wing armament you could use the E-4 as well. Maybe the canopy is a problem - check if it has the rounded canopy... else you need the E-1 overtree of cause I had great fun with my AlleyCat conversions - they are really really good. Hopy you dont find that I hijack your thread
-
Breathtakingly beautiful paint work... I can see, looking back, that you had some fun with the nose - IMHO the weakest point of this kit. Twice I've cut it off and replaced it with an AlleyCat conversion... I don't know if it says more about AlleyCat or the kit nose, but I found that easier than doing a standard kit nose...

Thomas Lund replied to IainM's topic in Works in Progress
Very very fine work - Respect !! As far as I could see no-one answered you about the Revell Bf110C-7 - yes it is the Dragon plastic with a price tag of 2/3 the Dragon price. Off cause that's here right next to Revell land, so I assume it's less attractive 'round your place... But it IS that kit I too am working on a C-6 from an A-4... only it has been parked for a long time...- 132 replies

Gawd that looks fantastic !!! I have built a couple of the Eduard kits and while I dont think they are as bad as some make them out to be, they are also not in the same league as the Dragon/cyberhobby kit. All in all buildable but not fantastic

Breathtaking...

Bf 109G-6 Hptm. Gerhard Barkhorn
Thomas Lund replied to Miloslav1956's topic in Ready for Inspection
Ohhhhh for a fellow 109-o-holic this is heaven !!! Sublime quality and such variation - love it -
I think that if I ever did 'the perfect model' then I'd stop... what's the point then? But as many mentioned... Fun is the key parameter here. I aspire to get better, I look at the 'masters' and I am inspired, not intimidated. That is how fun works for me, your milage may vary, but I suggest you find out what does it for you. Well that, and hanging out with the guys. We are fortunate to have a large group of modelers locally so we meet and act stupid together... aka having fun

So lets get this damn corona thing done so we can start travelling again - I could really use a beer in an Italian cafe right now :-) Take care my friend

Wow that looks great !! Actually I dont have any interest in the Helldiver, but these pictures are starting to change that... :-)

Kitty Hawk 1/32 Kingfisher RAAF Antarctic Flight 1948
Thomas Lund replied to Whitey's topic in Ready for Inspection
Beautiful work, but my oh my that's a lot of yellow to paint... I HATE painting yellow :-) Looks great !! -
especially "I'm in this photo..." bit

Never tried it - in fact never seen it... I think that if it ever made it to Scandinavia, the pickled herrings ate it...
