Scratchbuilt FIREFOX-MIG-31 master patterns


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

well I just updated the pics at the RPF forums site.

night before last, I spent removing all the gloss finish off the master. This will ease placement of the panel lines by mechanical pencil. Once it's all lined out I will shoot a coat of clear over the pattern and then begin the labor intensive task of scribing all these panel lines for the tool. Last night I went back and finalized the nose facets sharpening up the edges for this area. It is this area of the plane that is often missed shape and contour wise. anyway on to the hyperlinks

Enjoy!

William

A Little Update!

I got back my sculpts for the 1/32 scale Mitchell Gant pilots, My friend and sculpter Masao, did these for me. He did a fantastic job on these, getting the likness of Clint, at this particular era in his life spot on.

here's a small update

These are the master patterns for the exhaust nozzel shrouds that the cast nozzels will drop into. These will glue right to the back of the master pattern and be molded in on the final tooling..becoming one with the rest of the fuselage pattern

Enjoy da pics!
