its at the point now that I can really truck along and finish it up. Need to hit the LHS for gloss and matte coat tonight.

I can't believe the quality of the builds in the campaign! I'm certainly in for a long haul to see if I can keep on par with you guys...

This will be my build:



I am planning on at least picking up the eduard zoom for the cockpit...

I promised you some progress and here it is...



This is the almost finished cockpit of my Bearcat, totally OOB.

great to see some more activity erupting in here!
Nice to see another 1/32 pacific warbird and that Bearcat instrument panel looks very nice!

nice one guys,i've nearly got a top coat on now so more progress pix form me soon.

cheers paul

Next pics you see will be finished!
Waiting for the prop to dry now.

Shawn, you ought to consider putting together a feature on your bird. Alot of poeple would benefit from learning your techniques. You've done an outstanding job bringing that ole kit to life.

Hermon

Thank you Hermon!

If there is interest I'd be happy to put something together for the site.

I added a whip antenna to the spine, made a pitot out of brass and am ready to attach the wings tomorrow...im scared to death of this part!

Warren: Nice looking panel you have there, encouraging to see nice OOB builds

Shawn: Trust me there IS interest, so quite slacking and get to it!
I hope to use some of your techniques on my 1/32 Warbird as well once I get far enough along with it. Just hope it comes out looking at least partially as good as that weathered old Corsair of yours

lol, I had to finish the bird first!
After shaking off the hangover from last night I completed my build!
I will do a real shoot later, for now I give you these:

Jeremy, what would you like me to write on? Just a general here's what I did on this model to create X effect?

Hi folks,
Possibly because of a new year‘s flush and inspired by Warren‘s „New Campaign Builds“ thread I just enlisted to some campaigns for 2011.

For this campaign I picked the following French bird:


Cheers
Matt

Right on, that would be perfect! From what I've seen you already have all of the photos, so you already have most of the work done

Matt: Sweet, good choice for a modern bird!

Looks very nice, Shawn! A great result and very interesting to see a VERY worn bird. Not too often we see those.

Thanks for participating. Looking forward to hear the details of the different effects.

Ive just got my Corsair finished its currently drying on the side (superglue ) pics will be posted once it has dried and can be moved without the wing trying to escape also after prodding the photography department

Greetings fellow folding enthusiasts.

Here is a progress shot of my Trumpeter Bearcat. Going slowly at the moment due to 9 other builds in progress..


Just the cockpit and the radio stuff that goes behind. I have also painted all the Interior Green stuff.

More progress pics as soon as there is any,,

Samantha: Sweet, I'm going to have to pick one of those up someday
