BradG Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I posted a Schnellboot eariler but thought I'd put these up too just to show I do actually make large scale too. I'm into captured and post war use of Axis aircraft. All 3 are the new Hasegawa kits. Focke Wulf 190 - straight from the box but I did mask and paint the red stars using tape. Ki-84 Frank - heavily modified the seat and added belts. Markings painted with home made masks again. Bf 109G-14 - seat belts added, numerous things left off like amour and guns markings from the spares box (except the P). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Brilliant work, Brad! I especially like the Soviet Dora. I've seen a picture of an entire squadron of them in Soviet markings - I think they served in a regiment in the postwar on the Baltic - I can't remember for how long. Your Frank and Gustav are very nice also - great job weathering the Frank. I always enjoy seeing aeroplanes in non-standard markings, for example, I'm doing a P-47D in Soviet markings and some day I'll do a Lancaster in Soviet markings (and probably a B-17) - all in 1/72nd scale, although a Soviet P-47D in 1/32nd scale I would definitely consider. I could even use the leftover bombs from my HB IL-2. Regards, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I've seen all three of these models in the flesh, and they're even better than they look here (which is fantastic). Great work Brad; glad to see you posting buddy. How about a WiP thread now? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Brad, you are a MONSTER! Love those King-of-the-Mountain legs on the Dora. Sincerely, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 WOuld love to see some photos of how you modified the seat on yours too. Thanks guys! What I did was I cut the bottom out of the seat, thinned the back and replaced the bottom with plastic card. It isn't 100% accurate but looks better than the stock part, plus I couldn't justify another $25 to get a resin seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 The Ki-84 looks great. I've got to try a finish like that one of these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
