Update on my Dragon 1/350 Gearing


some updates on the gearing...actually bought this last year with my 1st 13th month pay...hehehe...didn't have the nerve to really finish or do this since I feel my skills isn't that good yet (I don't want to waste my 2k by just building the gearing and messing up)

actually still needs some touches specially on some seams





accidentally sanded rather cut with hobby knife more than I should have...will fill this later...



























































by the way...this is not yet glued...just a dry fit...and I think I messed up big-time in not painting the deck before gluing the sides since now I see that there are some areas where I may have troubles in painting...even glued the depth charge racks already on the aft...I may have to disassemble it since it ain't that glued to the deck...but overall I think I still can recover
















you may see that the forward portion of the hull is painted...tried painting light sea grey on it to see if it looks like haze grey...but it didn't...I'll just remove it till I find a suitable paint brand since I mostly do Tamiya and Gunze acrylics

Update on my Academy 1/72 Focke Wulf 190 with Kubelwagen




while waiting for my Mr Dissolved Putty (ordered through my friend) and while sanding the fuselage of my Sabre (I plan to finish the Sabre before I do the FW-190 to check how the preshading will work out)

I did this earlier...





 



and I got my 1st cut...hehehehe
