Already started Ralph, feel your getting there when the painting starts .Did a black primer for the shadows of the figures and a round the car .
Hi John
That is great. Just like the photo. Well done with the figures.
Jim
Thanks Jim, those Hornet head are certainly a game changer.
No flag huh? I suppose that means the "Dancing girls are out also"? Dang you make it hard on a fellow. Lovely work so far mate keep the
mojo moving. Rick H.
Sorry Rick
but here is one with Lucille Ball from the 1940s.
Moving swiftly on
John, thats one hell of gun, i surpose if it jammed you could beat a panzer to death with it! Lovely work John!
No doubt you could but I can see him lying in the road if he fired it from the position. !
Hi John, I love this. Good work on the figures, I 'm glad the talc & CA is working for you. I've never used it before, does the talc make the CA less brittle and therefore easier to sand?
May I make a small suggestion about the figures?
If you could just lift the front guy's head so he's not looking at the floor, and twist the head of guy with the AT rifle more to his left( towards the front), I think you'll have a more natural feel to the piece.
cheers
Neil
Hi Neil, slightly easier than pure CA, but I still find it hard to sand, plenty of firm pressure, but as a filler it's perfect .
Yes of course , I can see what you mean, the guy on the front I must have drilled at a slightly out of vertical angle,he was on this back when I drilled and I must have been pointing down, hence the looking down, the guy with the AT I put his head on before I had checked with the photo ,DUH . All is not lost even as they are glued with CA as I have a bottle of debonda, well worth having in my case .
Tomorrow a change will be made
Thanks guys .
John .
