MikeMaben Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Yep, that's me, I hate sesame seeds. They get stuck in my teeth without adding anything worthwhile to the burger. Luckily for me I don't think they cost extra. rafju 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the open panel fans will love this kit, but it seems to me that a fair amount of the detail appears to be in locations where it will never be seen once the fuselage is closed up. What's the point of that? Edited May 6, 2021 by coogrfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob MDC Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Detail is my release I don't give a **** if it can't be seen, when I had a proper job which was a bit heavy at times getting to the bench and doing the crazy ultra detail things I remember using Waldron 1/72 seat belt buckles on the two seat Starfighter making my own straps and threading them instead of the PE formed ones but I was pleased with the final result and a glass of beer tasted so much better. If you want a self help on working with fine injection plastic try a Mini Art WW1 lorry that will test you straight from the box Bob coogrfan and esarmstrong 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pup7309 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Depending on the subject I like a bit of obsessive modelling and ‘knowing it’s there and even though I spent hours doing this and not something in the real world, and no one else can see it, I feel satisfaction and pride knowing it is’ But sometimes I just want a quick no fuss build. Yes I will get this one and decide which way to go. Yes I’m glad ZM are doing a less - details option for their reported FW 190s Edited May 7, 2021 by Pup7309 coogrfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is about steak. Radu Never had a steak with sesame seeds BTW, I am in no way critisizing detailing. I understand that for some folks it's a kick and that's why we do this thing. It's amazing some of the level of detail some can pull off. ivanmoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
