ChippyWho Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) !!! OK, this is not a project, it's a career! Would it not be easier, quicker and cheaper just to buy (or even build!) a real one...? But then, what modeler ever takes the easy/quick/cheap way out! A seriously impressive job of work, Sir -hope I live to see it finished! Edited September 16, 2011 by ChippyWho Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The bird will be on the war bird not a disply one! Any sugertions!!!!!????? Hi there, mareku! Me feels yer pain, bloke; sometimes hawt detail on a given subject is completely lost the minute ya place it where it oughta be. :( Solution's hard if ya want to make yer bird a feisty one; once seen a bloke doin' an aircraft carrier hangar diorama in order to show the detail on his wartime Tomcat's 20mm cannon bein' removed from the bay. Mind ya, his was a 1/32nd scale Tomcat, not 1/18th, but wise thing 'bout his diorama was that he glued actual piccies of the interior of a hangar on the walls of his 1/32nd scale diorama. Perhaps ya might do the same 'n' scale yer piccies in 1/18th scale as well...? Cheers, fella! Unc² Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomartista Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Carrier diorama, not a big deal, it's only 1/18th :D:D:D Keep going :> It's incredible! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yesterday I took a dozen pictures from all angles of a Vulcan especially for you... Danny DACO Products Helo Danny! I would very much love to get pictures of the Vulcan from dierent angles. You see, I have this crazy idea to make an other gun and make a diorama of changin the guns in to the gun bay. So if you have that kind of pictures you took, please tell me what do I have to do to get them Regardes from Finland Marek Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gonzalo Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Wonderful build so far but, where are you going to put it? That is a very big Cat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon Fitzgerald Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Personally I always feel it's a positive thing to have detail in an area even if it's concealed by other parts. The details there in real life after all, and you know it's there. For me I always take satisfaction in adding these things and I enjoy the process and the research. I once built a T-55 tank in 1/35 with full interior and engine. Once it was sealed you couldn't see so much through the hatches, but I didn't regret it and enjoyed the build alot! :) I think by adding all this detail you really have brought a lot to the Vulcan, in terms or realism and finished result. Be proud and happy! :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
