Here are a couple pics of this new model, because of the poor lighting conditions today the pictures did not turn out very well so I will wait for a sunny day to take any more new pics. None of the pictures I shot today show the weathering I did on this model and it is hard to see in low light conditions.

No modeler could do  a model this great, these have to be real world images! Nr 3 is from a museum... ^_^

Exactly ! That first photograph is "head scratchingly good"

I think you've surpassed yourself with this photo's and the good ones are to come ?????  :dum:

Very difficult to distinguish which one is a model and which one is real. A testament to you outstanding build quality. Fantastic! :wub:

There's some folks on a certain "other" modelling website that are going to be in for a real treat...and a surprise if any of them thought that a Whiffer could not model authentic real world subjects!

Outstanding!

Thank you all for the comments!

As expected this time of year it is a real problem getting good pictures of my models because of the poor lighting conditions, sunny days are rare here on weekends during the winter! The weathering on this model is so subtle that it can only be seen in good light conditions, I wanted this model to have the weathering to scale and thats why its not easy to see in my pictures.

When I can I will get better pics of the model and post them.

Simply amazing, Matrixone! You've shown up those so-called "experten" and done yourself proud! Work like this would take the prize at any show. Three cheers!

Nice photos to look very convincing. That should should shut those nay sayers up!
Get this Cheese to sick bay!

Thank you Brian and Sisko!

Sisko,
Next time I  read about some ''experts'' knocking whiffs and the people who build them I will show them some of these pics and maybe that will shut them up (I doubt it!) for a short time while they nit-pic my attempt at a 'real' airplane model. :D
It may not be perfect but my model is almost as good as some of the bigshots at the other sites so maybe I will get some respect even though I mostly build whiffs.

Only one thing I can say about these ones Matrix. Incredible!!!!

Once again, thanks lancer!

Better pictures are on the way, I just can't say when for sure! The winter thus far has been full of storms (some winds were clocked at 108mph) and more rain then ever in recorded history in November.
I am in hopes this year will not be as bad and maybe not so much rain. :rolleyes:
