1/48 P47D Thunderbolt 'Bubbletop'

Update!

Yep. A month plus of no updating. Still alive. I think. A lot of work done, but updating has been an issue with me lately. Yeah. I'm just too darn lazy, until I re-read an email I received from a 'friend and fan'...it opened my eyes. If I want people to follow what I do, updating is something that is important.

So here it is.

Okay, this kit has been down way back in July...heh...

Another fantastic kit from Tamiya (and almost got me into airplane kit building), with the small little details...it was awesome.



Now, my client wanted me to follow it close to the original colors and he gave me some suggestions. I chose one and started working on it. The engine cover area is purely decals. Yes. If I did that, that would have been the last work of mine that you'll see...hahahahaha...

So here is the guy...

Okie dokie. That's all for now. I need to dig out more of the work I've done these past few months.

Cheers!

1/48 Mitsubishi Zero Fighter and Focke Wolfe Fw190

Update!

Another military build, but this time its...AIRPLANES!!! YAY!...

Okay, after so long of wanting to try my hand at building and painting fighter planes...I got my chance. My usual client has got himself into the world of WWII airplane collecting. And the lucky guy who gets to build for him is...ME!

So, how was it? Pretty interesting since it's different from tanks. You see, on airplanes we have to do lots of clean ups and not to mention the details are really amazing. But unlike tanks, painting planes are a bit different. How different? Have a look...

Overall it was fun. Yep. The challenge was more on the figure/pilots. I do hope to get more planes to build since I'd like to try out some other techniques that I've learned from model plane magazines (yes...I've begun to buy them now instead of Gundam magazines...lol).

So till my next post!

Cheers!
