Update for Today

basically this is where the real WIP/blog will start (all the previous blogs are meant to show what I've done before)...I will start now in blogging what I've done for the day on the same day I did it...let's start with...

my hair...I'm still waiting until it grows longer and I'll look like a Samurai with a topknot haircut...

that's my Tempest V (which I've hidden in the box because I was frustrated because of the decals and how much flat base I added to Tamiya's clear...won't happen again) Mustang, FW-190 and the Gearing (finally after 1 year...I finally finished the decks...well at least partly...

done some finishing touches on the cockpit of the Sabre and already cemented it with Tamiya's Thin Cement...

my baby...

experimenting on nose weights hehehe

I know...it's a nail ^^

there's the real weights (spent 3 5cents and 1 10 cents coins)...a screw and a worn out battery...

sanded the wheels and also made it look real by sanding the bottom so it would look real...

a closer view

sanded some flash...

there's another screw...

the touch ups on the cockpit...

New Purchases

got the Tamiya Spray-Work HG Superfine Airbrush last October 20 and also bought some RLM 75 and 76 from Gunze and a bottle of Mr. Surfacer 1000

finally it's in my hands ^^

Multi-tasking

all the clutter again...starting on the Sabre and the Mustang together with the FW-190

 

here's the box where I keep the painted planes so they won't get dust...I think I may need another box...already crowded...

interior green for the Mustang cockpit...again with my own mix...this time I cut off the control stick and replaced it with a stretched sprue

some sink holes I may need to fill...

Academy 1/72 FW-190A8 with Kubelwgen

here's my Academy 1/72 FW-190A8 with Kubelwgen...

here's the pic with my Tamiya's Weathering Set B

bought it from the local hobby shop (Tamiya at Ayala Mall) for 320 pesos

opening up the box...

tried to paint the red stripes for practice...

the cockpit...already dry-brushed with silver...

installed the cockpit..looks good...

some gaps that needs filling...I actually thought of filling it with cement or elmer's glue...
