Thomas-Morse "Tommy" Scale 1:60

At the beginning my friend sent me mail with the FG model to Tommy. After few hours of work this is got:

The following model was Hawker Hurricane Scale 1:60 (WWII CD)

P-40 Aussie "Kittyhawk" Scale 1:60 (WWII CD)

Someone was busy! Those look really nice, especially the Kittyhawk and the Tommy. The print quality and ink saturation of the paper is making me want to actually start, after 4 years, to print on my new Canon inkjet as opposed to the color laser printers I have at work.

Do you have any more to show?

Great modelling!! The Tommy came off really well, and it's not an easy build.
Maybe I'll get that good someday.

Very nice work

Thanks, guys, for the nice feedback. I fell in love with the FG models and I will continue to make them. I want to try as well some repaints.

To airforce - I use for printing my Minolta CF2002. This is one of the good digital printing mashines with 600x1800 dpi resolution, paper size A3wide (311x457mm (12"-18")) and paper weight 64-256 g/m2

Cessna L-19 "BirdDog" Scale 1:60 (WWII CD)

The most easy model that I have made is not this.

Well there's your problem, it's too small Great job!

That IS a laser printer! Huh. That explains the nice glossy touches on the Hawker Hurricane (I have one sitting right next to me, as a matter of fact). It must push the toner into the paper better than the HPs, because I always get a real bad white flash off of my HP printed models that I have to correct with Sharpies.

Just once I'm going to experiment with my new Canon Pixma 830 and see what an inkjet model looks and builds like. Maybe a large size Stearman....

I'm a fan of the ink jet. It takes a lot more ink, but it soaks into the paper giving it a nice deep, rich color. The laser printer I've used a couple of times wasn't that great, and it put a nasty finish on the model.

Pfalz DIII Scale 1:60 (WWI CD)

Pfalz DIII is a very old FG model and I make it just for fun. In the same time I had an opportunity to experiment with some new (for me) methods to make the wheels...




...and the wings.



This is the result.

Nice work on the Pfalz. I especially like how the wheels came out.

And you've done good work on all of your models.

Nice job! I like the wheels too. Maybe it's time for me to dig out my Dremel and give it a whirl
