...or back in the saddle, am I?
Saludos, all fellow modelers. Here, Rafa, from Venezuela. Happy new year for everyone
The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
After a few year's erm, um, problems, I'm back in this, my beloved hobby. I was out when photobucket changed, so I have set up an account in imgur, and am testing this stuff after all this time.
Without not much ado, now, I give to you my little Dolphins from Ace Combat. A very old scratch-build I am resurrecting as a means to shake off the rust i have accumulated.

R-101 Delphinus I





I built this one with cardboard, packing foam, and covered it all with my mud (ordinary plaster+white glue), and went to town with it

UUUuuumm, I love cardboard (Cardboard, Yum!!!)
OK, I know I can't stop scratchbuilding. Someday, I will build something OOB....

YOU - ME- EVERYONE.
WE MAY THINK DIFFERENTLY
BUT WE CAN LIVE TOGETHER

If you cant eat it hump it or fight it,
Pee on it and walk away!!

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Hello.  Those are great.  To get an idea of how big they are, Is the the lid from an aerosol can they are standing on?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

awesome work, Ace Combat 3 was my favorite game on the old Playstation 1.
what markings will they carry? Upeo, General Resources, Neucom or Ouroboros?
on the bench:

-all kinds of things.

Welcome back and a happy new year Rafa
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I think they are a bit bigger than I thought.  Colours are good.
:thumbsup:
