  1. Thank you for you kind words.

    Don first color to apply was the Alclad II Aluminium color. It was sprayed over Valleyo acrilic primer which was polished. After aplying NMF another round of polishing was done. And after that cam invasion marks and blue nose. I have never had any problems with Alclad in peeling off or damaging the surface by masking. So far I used acrilic and enamel primer with alclad and also sprayed the stuff directly to plastic. And then masking on the NMF surface. And so far everything was OK. The only thing thats important is to spray it on glossy or finely grinded surface.

  2. My contribution to this group bulid will be Academy P-51B Mustang of the 8th Air Force 352nd FG named Blue nose Bastards of Bodney. I will recreate the aircraft that was flown by Lt. Robert H. Powell Jr. in standard Nature Metal with Medium Blue nose and full D-Day markings. For this build Eagle Strike decal set IP7208 will be used.

    MAISTER CUP 2014

    Dear fellow modelers!

    Model making has been closely related to distant as well as recent history which is the main source model makers draw their ideas from. Scale models are the result of passionate study of various sources, model maker's awareness of the materials they use in recreating events or objects, as well as their devotedness to including the minutest of details, hardly noticeable to the untrained eye. As such, they play an important part in understanding an event or an object caught in time. Model making is not only a relaxing hobby but rather a way of life. Model makers of different ages, professional backgrounds and nationalities all speak the same 'model-making' language. The latter is brought to life when different scale models about a single subject or those in the same scale factor are displayed on a single table, with model makers eagerly comparing them, studying each representation and feeling excited at innovative approaches and techniques in crafting interesting details etc.

    In our endeavours to grow awareness about the importance of model making, share our model-making enthusiasm with all those interested, and perhaps make new people join the model-making sphere, Maketarski klub Maribor (Scale Model Club Maribor) decided to hold a contest in the beginning of 2014. We decided to name it Meister Cup 2014 to pay homage to the Slovenian general and poet Rudolf Meister who left a significant mark on our country’s history.
