At Last! The Sun Came Out...

After a few weeks of poor weather the sun came out and I was able to get some new pics of the Hasegawa Bf 109G-14. Hope you enjoy them because it was fricken cold that day!

Can't beat that with a stick. Dang, do you have that down.

Yeah what Greg said! Matrixone, you are simply the master of Luft-photoshopping! I particuarly like how you scribed the writing on that one shot. Looks like it was done with an old-fashioned pen with a nib dipped in an inkwell.

Bravo zulu!!!

I join the standing ovation! Way, way out of my league. What next?

Thanks Greg, Brian, Sisko, and Glenn!

Glenn,
My next new model that will be posted here is my ''project X'', other new models on the bench are a Me 262 A-2a/U2, a Ju 87G (a spat plane!). Other new projects are a He 100 and a P-40.

Later this weekend I have new pictures of my finished He 162 that I will post.

Did he say spats?

I can't wait!!!

I love spats!

Brian,

Yep, I am building a spat plane!

It won't be a whiff but instead I will be doing my Ju 87 in the markings of Rudels last Stuka before the war ended.
I will try and get some in-progress pics and post them.

Here is another 109 pic...

The sun is still standing still .... in awe!!!

Man, this is artfully great, inspiring!!!

Thanks much Rafa!

I like this model very much but my next Bf 109 will be not so easy to improve upon, I always look at ways to improve my models and do a better job on the next one. The biggest complaint I have against this one is the weathering, its just a little too light for a machine that made it all the way to the end of the war.

Good teutonic maintainers, that's all!!!

Come on, Matrixone!!!, I know your next build and fotos will be astounding. You even surpassed this model with itself!!!

Maravilloso

OK Matrix, you've got to try your hand at some armor, if you can make your aircraft look this real I want to see what you could do with something like a Flakpanzer!

It could be part of your hangers air defence

matrixone · January 21, 2007, 04:57:58 PM

Thanks again Rafa, and thank you Jeff!

I do have some ground vehicles that I have not built yet, the Ostwind, Wirblewind, and an 8 ton half track with 37 mm AA. Also I have a Tamiya Panther that I bought years ago and plan on painting it in the Ambush camo scheme. What turns me off about these armor kits is the ''rubber band'' style tracks they use, how the heck do you paint those stupid things?
