Wolfgun33 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Hey all. Here's another build that I'm doing at the same time as my Viper. It's the ESCI 1/48 Henschel Hs 129. Got it for $16 at a model show. This is my first WW2 amd German aircraft. Edited May 31, 2012 by Wolfgun33 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wolfgun33 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Big gaps and seams to fix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Finally got a chance to prime the Hs129. It's been too hot here to get much done. Primed it this morning. I gotta few things to fix on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny_Mike Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 How did you fill all those huge gaps? Can't even tell they were there! Looks awsome! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Thanks Mike. I used Squadron Green Putty and Mr Surfacer 1000. I still have some gaps on the bottom to fix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

xavi84 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Jeez Wolf, that photoetch must really be giving you a hard time cause this doesn't even look like an F-16 any more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 Lol!! No it's the other project on my bench. I'll be getting back to the Viper soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xavi84 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) I know how that goes. Sometimes you just need a break from a model by working on another model. All kidding aside this coming along nicely. Edited August 24, 2012 by xavi84 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks. I'm getting close to painting this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Wow. Didn't realize that I hadn't updated this in a while. My bad. Here's the decals that i'll be using. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 I decided to rescribe the entire thing as I had lost a lot of panel lines with all the sanding that I had to do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Then this happened. Guess I had put to much pressure on it or something. Fixed it with CA and putty. Good as new. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfgun33 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Then back to rescribing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nerdling Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I've got the AMT boxing of this kit. Looks pretty nice so far. Good save on that break. Plastic must have been brittle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The plastic was brittle. That and I was putting a lot of pressure on it when I was resrcibing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
