Trumpeter 1/48 T-38C Talon
Hi everyone, Orginally envisioned as a simple and quick build due to low parts and two colour scheme, how wrong was I…:rolling: Fuselage and intakes were a sanding venture as were the canopy’s to get rid of a nasty seam.

Fernando's Matchbox/Revell M7 HMC Priest
Evening all, With the last layer of pigments on the base dry, the result was fine to accompany the HMC and a coat of dark green was painted on the edge to finish it off. Misted some mud brown on the lower bits of the HMC for some dust I missed in the whole mucky look, a final coat of matt to...- Fernando N

Fernando's Matchbox/Revell M7 HMC Priest
Evening all, Thanks Peter, just some TLC and a bit of putty needed:smiling: Thanks :thumb2: , well I have a tip for you: a black primer helps with the OD coat as the dark preshade base and also narrows down the chance you miss a spot during airbrushing the colour on and having a light spot...- Fernando N

Tamiya Mosquito NF Mk.XIII 1/72
Odd nosed Mosquito completed:cool:. Built it to test out a Vallejo RAF set I had lingering around, also tried out some Hataka Nato black for the underside to add a shade to the blackness. Not so shake and bake as most kits from Tamiya but still a pleasant one to build:smiling4:. Fernando- Fernando N

Surface Finishes On Home 3D Printers?

A little bit of fun, Revell 1/144 P-47 Thunderbolt
Hi all, Completed this little one last week as some simple fun between bigger projects.

Still with patience and enough putty all can be solved, made an antenna ...- Fernando N

Fernando's Dragon 1/48 Bachem Ba349A Natter w/Tower
Good afternoon, Allen, thanks buddy :thumb2: , I traced the lines with a pencil first and then a couple of passes with a 0.15mm needle and a fanged tip.
