Mark Deliduka Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 These are looking good. I would love to know how you can sand next to these canopies without crazing them. Looking forward to seeing more.

wedfactory Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Posted May 7, 2015 Started the paint on one of the Prowlers...
wedfactory Posted May 7, 2015 Author Report Posted May 7, 2015 Also have started working on my 1/32 scale J7W1 Shinden...No, it will not be done in the silly cartoon version. It will be a warbird when done.

mustang1989 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 Lookin' smooth as a baby's butt there Warren!
wedfactory Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Posted May 10, 2015 The engine is done and now started to paint the parts for the cockpit.
mustang1989 Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 Which kit is that Warren? Lots of detail in that one for sure!!
wedfactory Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Posted May 11, 2015 Which kit is that Warren? Lots of detail in that one for sure!! Â This kit... Â Â but doing it as a military aircraft, no silly cartoon aircraft.
mustang1989 Posted May 12, 2015 Report Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) I'm not surprised to find out who the manufacturer was given all the detail. I should have known that ZM was involved. Nice job so far Warren!! Edited May 12, 2015 by mustang1989
mustang1989 Posted May 13, 2015 Report Posted May 13, 2015 Lookin' great man!!! I like all that rivet detail.
Mark Deliduka Posted May 14, 2015 Report Posted May 14, 2015 Looking great man! I almost feel like I can sit right down and start flippin' switches!
mustang1989 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Posted May 18, 2015 Lot's of detail and hard work! What are you using regarding paint?
wedfactory Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Posted May 18, 2015 Right now it is all model master enamels with the exception of the washes those are model master acrylic.
wedfactory Posted May 19, 2015 Author Report Posted May 19, 2015 As the guns and their components have been painted and are now drying I decided to work at the other end...I have seen several other forum where other modelers have said that the engine doesn't fit and required that 4mm be cut out of the pipe on the back end of the engine. as you can see here I did not have that problem and the fit was spot on.
mustang1989 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 Sounds like some of the other folks who built this thing didn't do their homework before setting the engine into place. lol . Nice job on the fit.
wedfactory Posted May 19, 2015 Author Report Posted May 19, 2015 There is a shaft the runs down the middle of the pipe on the end of the engine. If it is not set correctly I could see where it would not go together properly.
