RKic Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 what is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skidbuggy Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 What you see in those two photos are moulds. I'm going to pour an airplane. If I can when get back to the house in CT tonight I will try and post some pictures. It remains to be seen how well it works out; what I'm doing was impulsive and an experiment on an esoteric subject. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skidbuggy Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm a total hack at this resin casting thing.... I'm making a Bombardier Dash-8 Series 400 we'll see how it goes... I'm not sure what I've gotten myself into :unsure: Now I need to teach myself the art of homemade photo-etching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skidbuggy Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 The fit is pretty good. A little bit of filler here and there. I need to work on the nacelles and the spinners as well as scratch build the landing gear. Any ideas as to what operators I should make these? Alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie Cheetah Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Wow, looks great. I got to fly on a regular lenght "Crash 8" about 20 years ago, I knew the stewardess from high school, her face was green when we landed. The -400 looks much more elegant but also looks more fragile.
