Chappie Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Wiggy, That is a very well thought out way to chip the paint! Very interesting. How do you cut these divits in the plastic? X-Acto or something? Chappie Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How do you cut these divits in the plastic? X-Acto or something? Chappie X-actly! Use a fresh #11. This process works better on a curved surface. Just cut some "scale" divits into the plastic- kinda' one on top of the other to form the dented/wrinkled area. The more you do, the more you get that dented/hammered-back-into-shape look. Give it a try... <_< Hope to get some more pics tonight. She's standing on her own gear now. Thanks for your interest.

David Walker Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 The fading and weathering job you've done on this B-26 is remarkable. I can't wait to see it finished. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wiggy Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 Greetings friends. I want to thank you all for your interest and the kind words. :lol: So I've got "Dina" sitting on her own gear now. Always a mile marker when they can stand on their own legs. Still have a ways to go... More to follow. Winter skies, Wiggy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeeBee Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Great looking Marauder, looking forward to seeing it finished. I have not modelled for about 10 years or more now, but thinking about getting back into it. This kind of work, and much of the stuff on this site is really inspiring.

Wiggy Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Greetings. ;) So I've made some more progress. I got the doors on, relief tube, nose and canopy and some other whiskers. Still have some guns, blow-by and final chip work to finish. Home stretch! ;) Seasonal skies, Wiggy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
