"RED LION" Wedell Williams Racer


Recommended Posts

Hi.

I'm new to this forum. My name is Martin, I live in Poland.

Sorry in advance for my English, just learn. So I wrote little, but I'll post more pictures of my work.

For now, built a model in 1 / 32 scale is the "RED LION" Wedell Williams of Williams Bros. set. This model is not perfect so I added a little of each other. The first time I painted the model in the high-gloss, which was a challenge and an important experience. Its construction caused me a lot of fun, so I build another model's Williams, this time Schoenfeldt Firecracker. :speak_cool:

Thank you very much Kevin. I'm very glad that I host in such good company :speak_cool:

 

Dashboard is made of thin plywood. Clocks are scratched with a pin, I added a plastic tips of the stamens. I added a clock rings with thin silver wire and then filled clearfix. Unfortunately it did in the small air bubbles which broke little effect. Other panels of plywood or 0.4mm.

I agree with Matt, your instrument panel is very nice! I've just moved your thread over here to Works in Progress Martin, as I've only just noticed that you created it in the wrong area.

Sorry, a little confused. Whole environment of the forum is new to me, I have much to learn how to move it.

I promise improvement.

 

The frame of the hull was Plastruct rods, armchair remote control with thin plastic inserts.

The whole painted Humbrol paints and ModelMaster.

But I still hope that somehow there are Poles. I saw in Poland wile beautiful models in 1 / 32 scale. But in our country is generally not very popular scale.

Here the photo of one of my projects on a scale 1 / 32 PZL P6 1931 with Cleveland.

The model completely from scratch, will have a lot of detail.

Martin,

First, :frantic:

 

Second,

Outstanding work so far! You have taken an "average kit" and made it Art so far!

Very well done, keep up the great work and good luck with the Baby.

All the best,

Paul

Greetings Martin. :hi:

 

Just amazing work you are showing here on LSP! :)

You do beautiful work. :bow: :bow:

I'll be watching your progress. :(

 

I've become extreamly interested in those early air racers from the 1930's.

Still trying to finish my 1932 Springfield Bulldog- also a Williams Brother's kit.

 

All the best, Quarter Scale Wiggy

Thank you for all the constructive words.

I am also very interested in racing planes of the thirties.

I would like to build them all, but I think life is not enough.

Also I have a model of Bulldog, but it requires a lot of work.

Red Lion finished, now slowly exiting Firecracker.

And here more photos of model:
