Ian thanks ,thinking now maybe just plain clear disc the less is more approach?

Aires R2800 kits in themselves!

Anyone have a picture of a shipping container or pallet they would have put these on by chance,thanks in advance
 
Nice work.I wouldn't fancy glueing all that resin together at the moment.Not until I'd find a decent adhesive.I think you once told me you use two part epoxy?.
 
Thread owner
Dave thanks ,I was using epoxy with the pe bits on the Moto builds ,this time I tried some foam safe medium ca glue and it worked great. I like it because it gave me just a few seconds of work time before it locked down.

Ship 1 has been decaled and cleared

Great work on bird one trey and those props look a lot better ( imho ) And the engines on bird two wow rather you than me
 
Thread owner
Total admiration for your modelling and painting skills Trey, where can I buy some of that Florida sun you mention? Cheers Derek
 
Great build as usual Trey.I was going to try the exhaust stains on mine but chickened out!.

Thanks Fellas! Dave yours looks awesome without them ! Not much progress thats note worthy,been struggling with the trees and base. I'm no dio master like Ron,btw you're 'wait til its on the bridge' thread has done wonders keeping me motivated ,great stuff there Sir! Figures are also killing me,painting them is not a strong point for me. Heres the basic base layout

Spent a long time painting and inking the palms to get rid of the 'plastic' look

Maybe after some dullkote they'll come around

the crew need some more detailing and cleaning up,especially the faces

Used a dual action sander with some 80 grit to give the base some depth variation,then just a quick rattle can to check my work

thanks for looking,cheers Trey
 
The diorama's looking very good Trey i don't think you need to worry about it. Looking forward to the finished thing
 
That's coming along very nicely Trey. I know what you mean about figures! I always tell myself that if someone is far enough away to appear the size of the scale figure (if you know what I mean) then I can't see the whites of their eyes........so why paint them :)

Cheers

Steve
