Trumpeter 1/72 CH-47A Chinook Helicopter - WIP#5 (decal completed)

Updates


[The rest of the build WIP can be viewed @CH-47a Chinook WIP]

- A very productive weekend for me..

completed the decal for the chinook and a layer of future already been applied to seal the decal..

as usual i used Mr Mark Setter & Softer for decal application over a layer of clear-coated surface..

the decal fit nicely and conform well to the surface with the help of the decal solutions.

Now i let it to dry for a day before another clear coat is sprayed on and ready the surface for the next step...

1. oil wash & a bit of weathering
2. Unmasking of the clear parts.. bulge windows, windows and cockpit..

on to the photos..

Trumpeter CH-47A Chinook Helicopter - WIP#2 (paints)

Been busy as of late.. but need to get this done as the resolution for the new year is to built more, 

Again this will be due in March 2015 for the the Transport GB.

Been a while so i've completed the priming process and now moving on to pick the color to paint. I choose to paint the yellow and the orange first and masked it before i start with the Olive-Darb.

on to the photos 

The orange is the mix of Tamiya Yellow & Red and i clear coat the paint to protect it from peeling when i lift the mask later..

I guess i better get going and paint those olive-drab  pretty soon..

Panda Models 1/48 X-35B (Prototype) - Completed

Happy new year 2015 to everyone!!!
and i start the new year with a completed build for my Panda Models F-35B (X-35B)

It was abandoned in several stages over the past few years... i think i started this back in 2007-2008... 

i remember halt the build after surfacer treatment... after painting.. and also after decalling... and a few months (or even years even) in between those stages..

This a very old build that have seen the inside of the box countless time.... and finally after so many years i manage to finish it due to a motivation by a Campaign held by Armorama.com the "Unfinished Business Campaign"

Review of the kit can be viewed from cybermodeler.com

The mandatory box art..

Finished this a few weeks back but only manage to upload it here now..

I'll do a summary of my completed build for year 2014 later and what year 2015 holds for me is still unknown... but i sense a water related build for year 2015.. :D

enjoy for now..
