  1. Hi everyone, So 2/3rd through my Fieseler Storch build I started work on my first Dora. The main thing I was experimenting with, was post shading in a multiple colour camouflage scheme as I had never done this before. Nothing added to this kit, out of box, only opened up the gun barrels on the nose and replaced the wing barrels with stainless steel rod. Paint used was Model Master enamels for the camo and Tamiya for the interior and wheels, Vallejo for the "Defence of the Reich" bands....oh and I forgot to put a wash on after I clear coated it! Doh!!! :blink: Things I learned: 1) Yellow p
  2. Hi everyone, Okay, I haven't built armor for a very loooong time. I was 12 years old when I built the Tamiya 1/35 Flakpanzer Gepard and I'm 41 now....so, things have changed tremendously, to say least, since then. There was lot of firsts for me on this build: 1) First 1/48 armor build 2) First use of Flory washes 3) First use of Vallejo washes 4) First figures - ever - watched lots of YouTube video's to get an idea of what to do. 5) First use of resin - Blackdog bags and accessories set for Sd.Kfz 250/3 In the end, all that counts is that I had tremendous fun building this little gem of

  7. Hey everyone, Long time lurker here on arc but have not had the chance for 16 years to build anything....that problem stopped recently with my little Fieseler that I finished today. All out of box, I only opened up the exhaust stacks as they looked a bit unrealistic with the solid mold. Had a lot of fun with it, especially the controversial "Vermicelli" paint scheme. I ended up buying a very fine empty Montana paint pen from Amazon and filled it with some Tamiya XF-23 and drew the squiggles with the paint. To me it looks okay. Took some experimenting to get it right and also the pastels for
