mc65 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 thank you all, buddies! I glued the flaps at 30° in a completely arbitrary way responding only to an aesthetic need: being electric they weren't subject to the typical drop due to the absence of hydraulic pressure, and seeing them at their maximum extension (60°) seemed really excessive to me. unfortunately the photos of the complete plane are horrible, the tools I have at my disposal don't allow me to do better. so for the moment I refrain from creating an RFI folder, let's see if Santa Claus is moved and gives me a decent camera! so, here the classic mugshots, heavily (badly) reworked on the PC. some close... the belly and a couple of shots with a dark background, which should make it sexier, but actually it scares me... so, waiting for (maybe) better photos... wanting to make some final considerations on this kit, I can only talk about it very well, the very few problems encountered along the way I created them. it's so well done and satisfying, as well as reproducing the lines of an aircraft unique in its beauty, that it makes me want to make others, perhaps one with the tail of the Ta152, we'll see... thanks again to everyone for their participation and encouragement, without which something else would have come out, undoubtedly worse. cheers, Paolo Isar 30/07, Uncarina, scvrobeson and 25 others 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Very nicely done indeed, Paolo! Kev mc65 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMaben Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Paolo, I must say, you're waaay to hard on yourself. We've seen many red bottom D-9a and yours is certainly as nice or nicer than any of them. Your photography is just fine too. Luv that antennae ! mc65 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greif8 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Awesome work all around Paolo! I think your build looks fantastic, the weathering is exceptionally well done which is all the more impressive because you used so many different techniques to do it. Much respect man!

Troy Babbitts Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Excellent work Paolo. Love the tutorial on how you made the upper gun cover work out. Hoping Santa brings you that camera. Troy mc65 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale32 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Great result. I really like the weathering around the wing roots and where you polished the rivets in the walk way area's just fab. Cheers Bevan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
