nickdanger Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) 1/48 Czech Model Yak-15 A couple of sculptors where I work had some small pieces of marble that I sanded into a abstract x-section of an airfoil. Not just any marble, but the real deal all the way from the Apenines...Carara...simply wonderful stuff. Edited August 21, 2009 by nickdanger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Here is my 5th and last. A Canadair Mk6 (should have been a 5) Sabre. Leading Edge decals to make one of the 5 Skylancers which flew in Europe in 1956. This is the airframe flown by F/O FK Axtell which suffered a fatal crash along with 3 other team members practicing for a upcoming air-show outside Strassbourg back in March 1956.

Andrew Doppel Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hi guys. Just finished. My second contribution to this GB. 1/32 Kinetic F-86F Sabre converted to CAC Mk.32 Sabre of the RAAF's 75 Squadron 'Black Diamonds' Aerobatic Team with Southern Sky Model decals. Painted with Humbrol 191 Chrome Silver, Model Master black and white and Dullcoted. Unfortunately I'm not going to get my 'Telstars' RAAF Vampire done in time so this will be my last contribution to this GB. There are some great builds here guys and you should all be truely proud of your contributions. Thanks to Julien for moderating. Regards Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. Idacavage Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 After completing the thread on my Pitts build, I almost forgot to add the finished photos to this part of the GB! Here's the completed Pitts S-2B flown by Sunny from Airrock: Have fun modeling! Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neo Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) FINISHED all done in this bright color she really stands out parked with my 3 other blue angels!! Im kinda disapointed of the paint job especially the canopy but its kinda my fault... i applied liquid masking to my canopy before installing in and since this is a revell kit all the fighting to glue it into place damaged the liquid mask and i neglected to redo it before painting. As usual this model was had painted with Humbrol paints Note: My BA A4 is under maintenance so it does not appear on this pic Big thanks to Derek Moss for giving me the Jap decals use on my SNJ it made all the difference!! Cheers This is Neo signing off on this build :D Edited September 14, 2009 by Neo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Avenger Lai Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Finally done!! Belgium F-16A FA-67 ‘White Falcon’ Demo 1998 1/72 Hasegawa F-16A plus Eduard PE set 73235 Paula Models ACES II seats Daco products decals Reference: Dressed to Kill – One-off Air Force Color Schemes by Mark Attrill (got 3 beautiful color pics of this bird) Colored by Mr. Hobby white Top coat by several coats of Mr Hobby super clear Semi-gloss clear coat. Finishing touches with a light oil wash and dry brushed the cockpit area. I especially liked the photo etch set, really added a lot of detail to the 20+ year old Hasegawa kit. Hope you like it.

Derek Moss Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Here are two of the four "Frecce Tricolori" that I set out to build. Neither of the other two will be ready by the end of the build (tomorrow) but the Gina is close (missing the U/C doors). I will try to post some more photos over the weekend if there is still place to put them. The second plane is dark blue not black believe me. The picture is dark as the flash on my camera is on the blink and I had to take the photo at night! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
laval66 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Here is my entry... I have learned a valuable lesson on my first closed canopy model since I started this hobby up again: Don't glue them until after you've finished painting. Other than that, I'm mostly happy with this one - it was a fun build on an old kit that was cheap and perfectly commensurate with my skill! Also, two bonus picks - can anyone ID the helicopter that I snapped from my balcony? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingoalie Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Great builds everyone! Here are my 1/144th Blue Angels. This was a fun project, and I think I'll be building some more 1/144th stuff in-flight. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MHaz Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Ok, so we've got all these hot airshow birds, and nothing to haul around the spare parts in? What kind of an airshow is this gonna be when y'all break something???? Ah just kiddin', I've got ya covered on that: Gettin' done just barely on time... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingoalie Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Michael, That Fat Albert looks great! I've never seen the all-white one built before. Great job. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCAMXS Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) This one's complete now. The colors were a real challenge. I can't stand gloss white to begin with. The pictures don't really show off the finish that well. On to the pics. Well done everyone, really enjoyed seeing everyones finished builds. Very nice examples in this group build. I'd like to thank the mod and ARC for having this build. And last one.... Edited October 15, 2009 by CCAMXS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Derek Moss Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I finally finished all the last bits and pieces on all four models so here are some photos of the completed planes: Thanks to all those who had comments to make, I really enjoyed being in this build.
