Ramalama-ding-dong! I've given the bronze a wash with a gree-blue oil paint mixture for that patina effect. #histscalemodels #trireme #ancientgreece

Continuing with #ItaliaGB, there is an Alcione next.
What we got here however is a merge of two 1973 Supermodels (raised pannel lines crude moulds) with unnumbered parts. The shiny new box offers either the single and twin finns version and throws in some new cartograf decals.
#histscalemodels

Paint and decals are done. Got some more stowage to figure out and then I'll attach it all permanently.
Then it's onto the figures

Mr Cant moving along....quick mock up. Could be better, could've been worse. 🤷‍♂️😅👍🍻

Amazon man's been.

Seeing as I'm technically unemployed now, I'm going to need something to keep me occupied, aren't I..?

I made a start with the 1/72 F-104S. Hasegawa has you sticking forward and rear subassemblies to each other, but I read about fit problems that way so I've gone about it differently as seen below. Also taxying 104s usually had flaps lowered so I've cut them out as well. #histscalemodels #italiagb

1/56 Rubicon Models Jagdpanther. Made a couple of tarps from Magic Sculp,antenna is a trimmed bristle from my garden broom. Painted with AK Real Colours. #histscalemodels

Not much to the Saetta cockpit but it has taken a while. The instrument panel had 11 steps. #ItaliaGB #histscalemodels

Built doors and hinges for the storage compartments. At this stage, I've built them but I'll wait with attaching them until the model is almost complete to avoid breaking them. #papercraft #Tatra815 #AV15 #scalemodel #histscalemodels

Finished the UH-2Bs and kit Skyraiders converted to EA-1Fs. CVS-11 is d9ne. Post this weekend. #HistScalemodels

Decided I want to do a simple diorama for the Staghound, so I printed another crewman and a civilian woman. Sketched out basic ideas for a brick road and sidewalk.

After what feels like an eternity of filling, sanding, priming, resending and repeating the An-22 is actually starting to look like an Antonov.

And here is finished JAS39-D Gripen in doubleseat version. Chose czech version 🇨🇿, partly because its prominent tail art. Partly because czechs are our good neighbours🤍

My only regret is that i mixed main gray too dark (that color was in instructions)

Some chassis and engine work done on the M3, nicely detailed. The chassis still has loads to be fitted. #histscalemodels

Finished the interior for the #italiaGb Fiat 😁
It isn’t really the correct brown (I was guessing) but should do!

I’d forgotten the fire engine had a horn as well as the bell. I’m going to have to find a suitable honking sound effect for that too. #HistScaleModels
