W.I.P. Grumman FM-1 Wildcat, Tamiya 1/48. (1)

  Por , , ,

This is what you see is assembled in two afternoons, not even 8 hours of work, it is true that it will be necessary to improve and sand things, especially when I fit wings and fuselage. Sometimes I wonder if I really need more to enjoy this hobby, it is true that there are more recent Wildcats, better made and more detailed, but they also require more effort to assemble. At the moment this one is ready to start with… Continua Leyendo

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

  Por , , , ,

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. Perfilar estas figuras es muy exigente por el modelado tan fino que tienen, obliga a… Continua Leyendo

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

  Por , , , ,

A continuación os muestro las figuras de la Zundapp montadas y listas para imprimar y pintar, para mayor claridad voy a seguir la nomenclatura del kit: La B  es la que va sentada en el sidecar, tiene una pose muy natural dejado caer en el asiento, como todas finísimamente modelada. Me he limitado a limpiar bien las rebabas, pocas y muy finas, y montarla tal cual, le he añadido la correa de la MP40 y la del casco hechas en… Continua Leyendo

  Por , , ,

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)

  Por , , ,

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
