airscale Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 It's lead sheet Shaka, very malleable and easy to work with. great to see you trying this Max - your first attempt looks fabulous ..in case you missed it, I did a tutorial on compund curve panels right here you may find it useful as you start to approach different areas - it is a very versatile skill and not too difficult to pick up. The big problem will be resisting the temptation to skin the whole airframe Peter Shaka HI and mozart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 Thanks Peter, your link to your tutorial is very much appreciated, as is the further one to the nacelles. I'm a little concerned about the accuracy and general shape of the nacelles as supplied, trying to think around "shaping" options so your work gives me the germ of another idea!

The Phantom Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I have the same kit and am still amassing bits and pieces but its certainly something I have always dreamed of building this in 1/32. mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very interested to know what bits and pieces you're amassing just in case I'm missing something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Would have been nice if the engines supplied actually represented anything resembling a 975 or jacobs engine, Im still looking Ill get out what I have over the next coupla days, had a knee replacement so not really mobile Edited August 30, 2016 by The Phantom mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Superb work Max - looking great! Iain Thanks Iain, if it ends up looking reasonably like an Anson I'll be happy. It won't be finished for Telford but I'll bring it along anyway. Splendid work!!!!!!!!!!!!! Max Superb work and you are a braver man then I Keep 'em coming Peter Thanks Sandokan and Peter, your encouragement is much appreciated.....foolhardy might be a more accurate description Peter! Would have been nice if the engines supplied actually represented anything resembling a 975 or jacobs engine, Im still looking Ill get out what I have over the next coupla days, had a knee replacement so not really mobile Sounds interesting. Regarding the engines, I'm not going to be too precious about it, I'll be adding some con rods, spark plugs and leads, pumps etc and generally dirtying them up by which time they'll be good enough for me.

MikeC Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 ... I'm thinking increasingly of not doing the Anson that Winkle Brown flew but one that Dad flew: yellow with black anti-glare panels on the engines and nose. ... Looking good Max, a superb job. I like the sound of the colour scheme, and you have a fine reason to do said scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozart Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 Shaka, Peter's tutorial is so useful. I did some more panels on the starboard nacelle yesterday using Peter's technique and it all worked so well. Fortunately the Anson doesn't have too much metalwork on it, otherwise I could see myself getting hooked! The Harvard on the other hand though.......!
