Libelle V - "finished"

LIBELLE V

>>Gallery of Libelle "finished"<<

The Libelle V finished! was awarded the first prize of the contest DUST 2010, during the Lucca Comics Festival 2010!
It will then be considered for entry into production as a model kit series.
I am very happy with this result and for this opportunity, but especially for having had many positive reviews from many good models, this has more value to me!


Thank you all!


Note:
-The crosses and the numbers are not decals but paintings
- 80% of the model is self-made, including propellers
- The three legs are resin multiplied by a single master
- The colors are all strictly RLM used during WWII

Libelle V - step painting cockpit

... Another small step, the seat as I had written in an old post would like to draw a little retro style and even the "unusual" for a means of war, to this I had to also add seat belts, the problem is was not having belts that scale (1/ 5) I had to build them, obviously they can not compete with those photoengraved but I'm still happy with the final result, derived from the "plate" of an old tube of toothpaste, judge for yourself. The cockpit still not completely finished, however we can see something!

 

Last stage for Libelle V

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!

Sorry for the outburst but "maybe" I finished the construction of the Libelle!

lacking only the cables on the rotors ...... but seeing what I already had to spend absolutely nothing!

However, I was proof that if you work with a precise diagram of the projects of "imagination" are not an end ... and indeed I have tried to say a final end to this project!

Let's stop the nonsense anyway ....

since the last photo you will be changed especially in the cabin, that his face has changed a lot .... for obvious reasons, the glass will be glued to finished coloring them ... see them stuck in some way false.

Now I wait with staining also down 235.

Honestly, I would use this model for those who can not stagger the lines and details .... but honestly I do not know yet, maybe two shades of green or green and sand ..... bho!

The Album:

Here is a small model that will be part of the diorama for Arado 235, a beautiful Kubelwagen.

New models ready for fun...

Found in a small market .... two beautiful models, the famous Godzilla, 25cm high and 35 cm long.... a beautiful monster! and also the beautiful line of DSA Sea Quest television series ... not famous in Italy but very known foreign!

They could not miss in my collection!

Wipeout "Beholder team"

And now the model....

Many of you will know the famous racing game Wipeout wild, racing cars aircraft suspended several feet from the ground through an anti-gravity suspension system ...... so why not make a model ??....
..... In the various series of this game have followed many types of vehicles, I wanted to add a me too, of course, is always based on Wipeout style, the color is obviously essential in this subject!
Everything is born of an old toy car for my son who drew much the center of this type of rocket car, the need to wait for the dead time between work and the other other models .... and this is born Wipeout " Beholder "
The model just mentioned, missing a host of accessories and it is only 30% of the work, but the core idea is the least you can appreciate the final look.
The color? ... Maybe a orange shaded to white with a host of sponsors and a big number race!

My project is to create a master template to create copies they can sell to fans.....would be my dream.

Who is interested a future copies of these kit, please contact me at:

will be updated when the resin copies will be available.

Arado Ar 235 "Atem" the cockpit!

... I post photos of the cockpit Ar 235, for obvious reasons there are still steps of mounting the cables behind the instruments and some additions (front cockpit), partly because unnecessary in closed model we will see very soon!

WIP Arado Ar 235 "Atem" 1/48 -final stage-

.... Now I am close to that color ..... honestly still do not know !..... if you suggest ... I accept tips!
missing the basket, auxiliary rockets for take-off version of the typical Ar 234 and the antenna and the model is finished ...
All fillings were carried out with few problems and not even delete the line from the lens mold was fun!

Here it is in final stage!

Arado Ar 235 "Atem"

Going forward I could define more precisely the shape of the tail, which have a logical context that is outside the discharge line of engines has received a look at the "Y" obvious reference to the famous German experimental aircraft Huckebein Ta 183.
It looks like this now .... now a good job of sanding to connect everything and you're done!

WIP Arado Ar 235 "Atem" (il soffio alieno)1/48

Come annunciato mesi se non anni....ecco che in preda ad un raptus modellistico (che non avevo da mesi) ho tirato giù le basi di un aereo stile Dust senza però esagerare non volevo andare oltre...diciamo che sono rimasto molto nell'area Luft 46.
Un piccolo ricordo è verso l'aereo che Indiana nel film "I predatori dell'Arca perduta" fece saltare...la tipologia delle ali almeno!
Era un progetto che doveva partire già l'anno scorso poi....vabbe! Si basa su un Revell 1/48 del famoso e già avveniristico per l'epoca AR 234, nella mia mente ho pensato che l'aiuto "alieno" sulla aereodinamica avesse portato ad un evoluzione dello stesso progetto portandolo a questo da me pensato....AR 235 "Atem".
Come potete vedere è un bel MIX di pezzi per quanto riguarda le ali, questo pezzo ha causato il sacrificio di ben due KIT ma non è detto che basti.
Il dubbio rimane sulla coda, se lasciarla così oppure modificare anch'essa....è in che modo?

Nuova grafica del Blog!

Era da un pò che volevo modificare lo stile del blog, ed ecco un qualcosa molto SCI-FI che per l'occasione trova anche il mio Starwind, pezzo che mi ha dato molte soddisfazioni!
