W.I.P.: Zundapp KS600 Motorcycle & Sidecar, Tamiya 1/35 (4). The Figures.

Working on the outline of the KS600 figures. Outlining these figures is very demanding because of the fine modelling they have, it forces you to make an effort and be very precise, I’m already seeing some touches. The arms are only with a couple of coats of colour to see the whole. More progress soon. / Trabajando el perfilado en las figuras de la KS600.

W.I.P. B-339 Brewster Buffalo, Tamiya 1/48 (1)

Tamiya’s B. Buffalo 0 – 1 Joaquín G. Gázquez The first goal of the match was scored by me, the transparent parts of the COCKPIT of the venerable Tamiya’s MODEL came in one piece and I have been able to section it without damaging it, so I will go ahead with this project. Later I will tell you a “secret” about it. This MODEL is very special for me, because when I was a kid I remember seeing it in… Continua Leyendo

Ready to paint the wonderful Zundapp from TAMIYA,  delicious kit, I have assembled it all literally in four afternoons, two for the plastic and two for detailing. The wiring is an electronics hil that a good friend has passed me, the rest “homecocked” and the excellent resin wheels from CMK, for that reason of the thickness of the spokes. I hope you like it. .

W.I.P. Zundapp KS600 Motorcycle & Sidecar, Tamiya 1/35 (1)

Lovely last bike from TAMIYA(タミヤ) a real joy, I placed the CMK resin wheels because the spokes of the originals are out of scale and detract from the whole, the set of CMK in 3D printing is magnificent with a subtle weight effect, I just had to review the diameter of the axles to fit perfectly. In the next session I want to add the wiring and leave it ready to paint. I hope you like it. . Preciosa la… Continua Leyendo
