discussion Testers model workshop (video tutorials etc)

[Guest]

Again, im not sure if this has been posted before, but just came across it

http://www.scaleworkshop.com/workshop.htm

Has a load of video tutorials, tips and technique articles and model building articles.

 

[Guest]

What an absolutely brilliant link, many thanks for that.

It went straight into my favourites folder for study at length later.

Some of the tutorials are interesting particularly with so much talk about Future recently and the washes and weathering are excellent resources.

Loads of things to experiment with and the models are stunning.

Glad it was of interest to some others

There's also another page worth looking at, the showcase

What well laid out sites Testors do,easy to navigate around with no frills,during the day between other jobs I am going to look at each of these models in turn,thank you again for the link,it is amazing what is out there ready to discover in our model world.

 

[Guest]

Both these links are to two of the best manufacturers sites i have ever seen.

All credit for Testors for putting together such a superb quality resource and all thanks for sharing it with us.

I can just thoroughly enjoy looking through these pages.

good find, i like the aztec explained, very useful, could of done with that when i got mine!

 

[wonwinglo]

I do like the cleaning system on the Aztek,a lot of thought has gone into it.

 

[Guest]

great links, keep em coming !

 

[Guest]

I do like the cleaning system on the Aztek' date='a lot of thought has gone into it.[/quote']its the fact that its simple and easy. My dads got all sorts of crazy iwatas and stuff but i cant really be bothered with them, this is so much easier to use. (not that i can really use it but you know what i mean!)

 

[Guest]

Squiff we had this before lmao the Iwata is infinately superior to the crappy aztec !!!!! you are the only person i know who thinks they are wonderful (sits back and waits for squiffys eruption)

 

[Guest]

Only got a paasche and it gently and precisely rocks my scale world.

 

[Guest]

got 2 paasche's they are my fav brushes

 

[Guest]

Aye, mine's a paache as well, but I did look at the astec and liked the idea of renewable parts at reasonable prices(at least when I looked some years back).

But the thing that swung it for me was the 'feel' of the thing, the astec was just too small.

If you're the king that knows they will forgett to clean the brush, then the astec is well worth a look.

maybe nigel should start one of his littel threads he does on "what airbruses/paint brushes we use"

 

[Guest]

been sitting here watching the videos tonight, that one about riveting is great.

if anyone want to know where to get the tool he uses (if you dont already have one) you can get it off the companys website

here is a link to their shop, you can get it to do 1/32 or 1/48th scale

http://www.shopcreator.com/mall/departmentpage.cfm/ModelDesignConstruction/54282/1/1/-/54282

and their homepage

http://www.shopcreator.com/mall/departmentpage.cfm/ModelDesignConstruction/52182/1/1/-/52182/-/-/-/-

quite a useful website!

going to have to get me one of those!
