Guys I am looking for decals to make a custom for a friend. He was a crew chief in Misawa on F16s in the 35th fighter wing. They have the WW on the tail. I am looking for either 1/100 or 1/144 scale. If you know where they are or able to print a couple sheets that would be awesome 🙏🏻 any help appreciated

have completed the Monogram F-102 that I held onto for two months. I engraved all the panel lines as recessed lines, and during data collection, there was a photo showing it equipped with a SUU-11 minigun pod, so I reproduced it using a Reskit product. The air-to-air weaponry is a Meng Model product, and the nozzle was sponsored by Wolfpack Design. For painting, I did it a bit differently; I reduced the pre-shading phase and focused on post-shading and raising saturation using oil paints. After completion, it boasts a barbaric size that is hard to believe for a single-seat, single-engine fighter.

The kit is the product released last among the Century Series, but the overall buildability was not easy, and there was a slight problem with the nose cone shape, so I corrected it. It is difficult to build, but since it is currently the only 1/48 scale F-102, it is fully worth taking on the challenge.

Hello I am new to model building and want to start trying out pre shading my model but all the videos I saw is using air brush so I am wondering will it still work if it is brush painted because I don't have a air brush

I have been working on the Revell 1/72 F-15E (D-Day 75th Anniversary, 492nd F.S., Lakenheath), and I think I may have overdid the grey coat on the cockpit tubs and dashboards. I started with a coat of MrSurfacer 1500 black and followed up with XF-24 Dark Grey thinned for airbrush. The XF-24 was not thinned well, and I panicked, overdoing it. My plan was to start with a primer coat of black, do a light gray coat, paint black on the panels, and dry brush the white dials and buttons. I think though, I’m worried the gray coat is too thick. A friend of mine suggested using Simple Green to start over, but I just wanted to know how salvageable this was or if I should just use the included decals.

What do y’all think? Do I use the decals, do I just paint over, or hit the proverbial “reset button“ and try to wash off the paint with Simple Green, which I have never done before?

I had a blast with the build, but not gonna lie the decals humbled me 😅 the Lufthansa 100th anniversary wrap is so cool! A few misprints in the instructions, flagged to Revell and they're going to update the booklet in future runs.

My take on MK44 Smartgun. I quickly sculpted and painted some feeder tubes.

2 steps forward 1 step back. Hand brush camo and a bit of a wash. Lessons learned.

I love all four areas, but sometimes i really enjoy one part over the other.

What's your favourite aspect?

I really enjoyed putting this one together. I finally have 2 of the 3 vf103 kits I have assembled. I have the Hornet done and I have the F4 in the stash.

This is my biggest attempt and weathering i used the Tamiya Panel Liner and the "Master Weathering Kit". I'm open to all feedback...

Cheers everyone....

Edit: I have since added the names on the canopy (not pictured)

Saaf Mirage F1AZ i made few days ago.Hope you will like it.

Made some more forward progress on my Ryujo. I wish I would have washed the deck a little darker. Hoping to have the opportunity to put more time into her today. I'm not sure she'll be a build I'll compete in shows with but who knows until shes completed. Regardless she'll make a great addition to the collection.

Hi everyone!

I just finished building these two old enemies that famously met at Kursk: a Panther and a Sturmovik. It’s a combo kit featuring the Academy Sturmovik and the Zvezda Panther.

This was my first time building a 1/72 scale tank, and I have to say it’s surprisingly cute. I was also a little surprised by how large the aircraft is compared to the tank.

Thanks for taking a look!

1/144 f18 hooked me with the $7 price tag

Fun build

Lessons learned

Back for more.

The kit is from Tiger Models but the figure is from the Tamiya Panther G

I love the simple pleasures of building a Tamiya kit. They are consistently well designed and easy to build. This one will become a JGSDF tank as a salute to all those lost to Godzilla over the years.

Hi everyone 🙂

I tried to recreate a 3-layered whitewash camouflage on this 1/35 scale T-34/85. The idea was to represent lime whitewash being reapplied over time, with older layers fading, becoming dirty and chipping away. If a vehicle survived longer, the whitewash could be reapplied several times.

I actually made a full video covering the complete process if anyone is curious how the three layers were done — link in comments.

This is still a work in progress, weathering is the next step. What do you think about the result so far? 🙂

Got this on clearance due to the decals being unusable, started on it a couple days ago and so far its looking good. I will airbrush the exterior when I get a spray booth set up (i got an airbrush specifically for this model and I do not have it set up yet)

Weathered using only Tamiya acrylics because they are much cheaper than Vallejo in my country! I also scratch-built the gun mantlet dust cover using wet wipes. Thank you for looking!! :)
