tomv87 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Waroff, your work is simply amazing! Keep up the great work! I love watching your thread! Regards Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waroff Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 For the first casting, I forgot to close the mold, so the resin escape on the work bench. After cleaning up, I cast again. overall engine fairing on topside wingtip with light, doors acces for pyrotechnic flares, and tie down. Screw covers at underside. Wing root with broach there is no bubble or pin holes. Lars Befring, Landrotten Highlander, Derek B and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alburymodeler Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I wonder will the wings be resistant to bending overtime, if it is cast in one piece? My feeling is that hollow top and bottoms halves are generally better, as it can take a wooden spar to resist bending. But maybe your resin and curing solves this problem. Either way, looking forward to it. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackman Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I really appreciate these "how-it-was-done" in-progress pictures of your resin casting. It's like watching a movie and the story starts to slowly reveal itself. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waroff Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 despite the warm season(28° in my workshop) and the shorter pot life , the resin casting is correct, I can continue to cast the wings and other parts Derek B, Lars Befring, Alburymodeler and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpchagnon Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Did you find the decals going with your model ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waroff Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Kev, I hope that it will be available in six months. Remind you that it will be a basic kit, there will not have the electrical and radio boxes, bomb racks. These items will be a complementary set. The build of model do not require this set. thus it will be possible to delivery the first kits at the beginning next year JPChagnon, I have not enough time to draw the decals and give this job at a factory. I'm a "amateur" modeller, I don't have a specific budget for this Breguet project. I cannot give the work to print 100 sheets/5 colors minimum. So, in a first time there will not have decals, but adhesive masks for paint the markings. a sketch for a possible box art. drawn in lost time Alburymodeler, Kagemusha, Lars Befring and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpchagnon Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Very interesting answer. I will try again to find a decal maker company interested but you will certainly need to give them an estimation number of your futur customers. But the mask is a very good option. You, indeed are an amateur ! well may be but with "tallent" and a will to success. I appreciate your job and give you my unlimited support.
