SH Piaggio 108B 1/72 (a newcomers attempt)

Hello all It has been a while since I have posted here, but I am back. Although it is WAY above my skills, I have decided to tackle this Italian beast. And what a beast! The Super Hobby 1/72 requires a lot of extra work. To jazz things up a little, I have added a PE-Set from Eduard for the Sm.79, ba...

Hallo Bernhard

Vielen Dank für deine Empfehlung!

I am trying now a colourless suture that seems to work just fine. If not, I will try the fishing line

BTW, what do you find here in Deutschland as substitute for "future" (finish coat)?

Herzliche Grüße

Hi Vincent Thanks for the tips. I did try to sand out the filter from the 202, but apparently it was not enough. I will keep trying, though - about a year ago, I had never used an airbrush before, so I am happy with the progress. Or I will stick to operating babies - that is a lot easier :wink: Chee...

A beginner's tale - Part I (the fighters)

Dear friends I am assuming you are already tired of seeing in Stormo all these masterpieces by Jean, Lubos, Vince, Maurizio and all the others. So now it is time to look at some "not-so-good" (in fact horrible) models, which however represent my serious effort into getting better at this hobby. At l...

Hi Mirek

When is the E-day going to be (I assume 19-20?) Most importantly, where in Prague is it? Can you get tickets directly at the entrance?

I may be in attendance...
