Scooby Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hey Gents!Thanks all for chiming in..I appreciate your taking a look. I forgot to ask...what color do you guys think I should I paint the walls? Regards, Pig Fighter Pilot Pink! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FrankC Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Hey Gents!Thanks all for chiming in..I appreciate your taking a look. I forgot to ask...what color do you guys think I should I paint the walls? Regards, Pig You could preshade it.. It might look more realistic. :D Seriously - I like lighter colors because I need all the light I can get, consider that the paint on the walls will influence the light. I like gloss white myself.

smithery Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I forgot to ask...what color do you guys think I should I paint the walls? Regards, Pig Well at the rate you build and paint, you better leave them as is if you want the project to be done by 2010........ BTW, WAY too many posts since we saw a pic of the Hornet.

afterburner Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I hope you didn't forget Pete- you promised if I brought the beer fridge you would let me use your place... KIDDING! Looks great- I'm with the guys- Light and Dark Ghost Grey and don't forget to pre-shade the rivets! What are you going to use for a wash? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete "Pig" Fleischmann Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 (edited) Hello Gents! ..I went searching for this thread because I'm about to get this model wrapped-up...I hope! The shop isn't done but I've got enough space to work safely now. The very first post of this thread is dated 16 Dec 04. See? I told you I'm the worlds slowest modeller!

Phantom Phreak Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I told you I'm the worlds slowest modeller! What happened to the 1/18 scale AT-38B that you were scratch building? I remember seeing it in the ARC gallery, but only the aft fuselage ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember seeing it in the ARC gallery, but only the aft fuselage ... Yes! And I fully intend to finish that thing before I retire! Couple Tamiya Vipers to do 1st... :D Pics coming soon of the Hornet.

FrankC Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) More horray's from me. :) ;) ;) Glad to hear your modeling space is finally ready. I sure look forward to seeing this. I am also looking forward to seeing what you do to a viper - I have that kit and really want to build it. Regards, --Frank Edited July 20, 2006 by FrankC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jnick Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Unfortunately, I took a loooong break from modeling and the forums back in Sept of '04, so I completely missed this thread. However, re-entering the hobby, and the thread resurfacing; tonight I went through all 68 pages. Now for someone like myself to go through 68 pages in one sitting . . . you know it has to be good; better yet, a masterpiece. Simply stunning Pete. The level of craftsmanship and artistry you have is amazing. I can't wait to see the rest of your updates! Cheers. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teun Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 ..but how do you guys post pics without a link..without having to "click" to see a pic? I'd rather do that.Regards, Pig Pig, You just copy the line behind Img in Photobucket and paste in the forum . Don't use the URL. Great looking model! Keep up the good work m8!
