Looking good Paul. It’s your eye for correction of the minor errors that lifts your builds so high.
Tim, cheers mate, if it's wrong it just bugs me lol.Looking good Paul. It’s your eye for correction of the minor errors that lifts your builds so high.
Cheers AndyLooks amazing, despite what you class as mistakes.
I doubt I'd be able to see them in real life, never mind fix them
I know you think it's right but as they say, "The camera never lies"I'm always surprised at the errors & omissions in my work revealed by the camera in my scale. PaulE
Except when it does It will show up things you won’t see on the real thing after a coat of paint, and at the same time it won’t show stuff you can see on the real thing because of the way the paint ends up looking in the photo …I know you think it's right but as they say, "The camera never lies"
Thanks Graeme, I wish I had the skills to do some of the things I see done.Your eye for detail is what makes your builds, Paul, as Paul E says, the camera shows up all the issues.
I have a rivet punch set they make domed rivets from 0.6mm to 2mmThat’s looking very good.
How did you make the domed rivets?
Andy thanks mate. I made a little tool. A cheap pair of flat tweezers with two strips of etch sprue on one face and a single piece on the opposite side. this produces the shape then when cut to length the ends are flattened with some smooth pliers. HTH.This is looking very good Paul do you make the handles/tie downs with a proper bender tool or just pliers?
Andy.
