jep1210 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) Why the humility? I mean, I'm not looking for you to be overly boasty. You put that cap back on your head and BE PROUD. That's a terrific job you did. The panel shading is fantastic BTW and so is your weathering.

RAF Liberators Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 I've always said self commendation is no recommendation. I'm happy to laugh and joke when at shows about my our stuff but there are much better modellers out there. It took years before I started entering competitions with my models, but these days I generally walk away with at least one 1st, but I still don't rate my stuff that high especially when I see some of the works of people on here for example. Yes I'm very happy with the outcome of this kit, Initially I wasn't going to share it outside of my own space but as more and more people have seen it they've either shared it or told me to share it in other places so I have. Yesterday I got contacted by the Australian disty for HobbyBoss who want to use my photos, so the ball would appear to still be rolling on this Kagemusha and LSP_Kevin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great finish (even if it isn't a Mighty 8th bird ) and an impressive model. And I don't blame your distributor, it's a fine advert for the kit, now make sure you get a good deal from them.

CharmyDown Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 This entry piqued my interest, and do you know what?... ...I thought 'ooh look, a Liberator'! Very nice, so much opinion has been posted here about this kit with very little experience of its reality. I have a D on preorder and started to question the virtue of this, so thanks for putting my mind at rest. I guess others hold a more purist view of this aircraft, but I agree with your take, it's about the art rather than the detail. I'm a Brit, so I'm probably a bit more relaxed about this plane than our chums across the pond. If it were a new large scale Halifax I would likely be getting a bit more anal about it. Respect to all opinions. D.B. Andrus and CATCplSlade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 That's a beautiful build - love it! I think these kits are an absolute bargain - and your build illustrates just how good they can look... Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piprm Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) My Lib has landed a few days ago and I'm still trying to get my head around the SIZE of the thing! Good job on the build Gary.. it looks amazing! I agree with most comments - the finish makes it! Love heavy metal ... I mean, heavy plastic subjects Pip Edited May 27, 2019 by Piprm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevepd Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 That is lovely. I know nothing about the aircraft or kit but a refreshing OOB build is a good thing. I’ve seen these on eBay now at around £99 and value for money that puts it in the Revell Hawk & Hunter league for me. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryCN Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Awesome build, I'm working on the"D" HB model now my first Large Scale build. Kagemusha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
