That's looking very good, well done.

Cracking model there. 

It is indeed. I've no idea how you'd go about replicating digital camouflage, although I think there are some transfer sheets available ?

[TheChronicOne]

I've actually put a bit of thought into that myself after I lucked cross a picture that kind of divulged a little bit of what is going on. See... that digital jive is all just squares when you get down to it so all ya need is the properly sized graph paper then you can go about a number of ways of getting tape cut to match. At least I think that's what was going on. All I know is I came away with the impression that graph paper would be handy.

I need to find that picture.


But yeah, anyway!!! Look at that thing!  Nice!  Ol' boy is pretty good modeller.  I admit to a black hole of knowledge about the JF 17 though... when I first saw it I thought it was an "F-16 made by a toy maker or something."  I'm forced to start looking for a kit of one of these, now. 

[TheChronicOne]

Found it pretty quickly after all!






Graph paper could be useful....or... perhaps just lay out of bunch of tape onto your glass or whatever then use a straight edge and draw a bunch of lines on the ol' fashioned way then get to cuttin'?  Something. Pretty interesting, I know that. I've been keeping this one in my back pocket for quite some time now to use at some point in the future on some project.

I hate to think what my chances of replicating that would be 

But as you say, a steady hand and good hand/eye co-ordination and Bob's your uncle, or in this litigious World of ours, Phyllis is your Aunt

Same here, but for different reasons. I have stellar eyesight but my concentration and willingness to do mundane, tedious, repetitive tasks could potentially go south quickly. I guess I'll just have to see......    some day.

Oooh...  neato!


EDIT:   Ahhh yeah, Bandai makes 1/72 X-wing.     This is now mandatory for my Thunderbirds collection.

About time they got rid of those F-16s, yes.

Ship builders take note!!  That ripple glass on the patio table, being outside and reflecting the fauna, makes for a pretty convincing sea-scape.

Beware of the big white jellyfish though.

[TheChronicOne]

I know!! Right?  I would have knocked that crap off of there before I took pictures.

Small enough scale and it could double for an iceberg
