Recommended Posts

So it´s finally done and here´s the photographic proof :)

As usual the pics are of mediocre quality since they are snapped with my mobile phone since I don´t have a decent camera.....I´m planning on getting one but for now you´ll have to make do with these pic.

I´ve taken lots of pics and I´ll spread them over more posts.....Well enjoy guys!! :P

Awesome....Janne,that's just awesome!!!!!

I've gone through this build from the beginning and I also know what is there behind this little jem...apart from beeing a beauty,there were moments of happyness but also some moments of really pain and difficulties and that's why I love so much the in-progress forum,cause I'v been part of it too and of what it concerned the building process and I exactly know what's there behind every of its pieces!!!!!!

that's really cool (instead of looking at a darn good-lookin model and stop,without knowing anything!)

Hey,you mentioned the poor quality of the pics...can I ask you why are they so "grainy"???what is wrong?are you using the phone maybe or just a old camera?

Cheers my friend and cant wait you to start your next project!!!

:cheers:

Man that looks great. Its always good to see one of these built up.

Julien

Thanx Julien, and even if it was I that built it...I agree...more viggies to the ppl! It´s a far too beautiful machine not to see more of!

Very nice build! Awesome finish and weathering. Being weathered the way you did she looks as a real thing.

Cheers!

Alexander.

Thanx Alexander, it´s those grainy pics that make it look so good :P

I stand by my previous statement ... :cheers:

Gregg

Alright....lightly weatherd then :P

Awesome....Janne,that's just awesome!!!!!

Thanx Jack, you had quite big part in this build you know, my swiss hitman......

And it´s fun to post a WIP thread, it´s almost as the kit gets collectively built. You recieve so much support when you need it and so much good advice and hints. I don´t think I´d have done even half as well building the Viggie on my own without the ppl on ARC.

About the poor qualiity pics....

Yup they are taken with my phone cam and I didn´t have a "white" light source, all I had was my ordinary office lamps with ordinary 40W lightbulbs with yellow light. I need to stock up on halogenlamps and a decent camera :D

If I only didn´t spend all my money on resin and plastic :P

Cheers all

Thanx edd!!

Ahhhhh I see.....well dude...stop jurkin around buying everything and get a nice camera...nowadays a good cam costs the equivalent of two tomcats LOL...

no seriously,sometimes I would loooove to see more details of your great builds but just cant and it's a bit of shame...

anyway,understand thoroughly the money prob LOL...I have the opposite one,I cant buy everytime every nice set i see around...daaaarn!!!

Ok,so for better "resolution" I think I have to come to that norway (or was it swedish) contest you are heading to LOL LOL....

Cheers mate and cant wait for the mitsubishi...I love those planes!!!!
