Kibner posted:It really, truly is. 27 and 35 are the similar ones, the easiest difference to spot is the shape of the tail boom thing, where on the 27 it looks like that, but on the 35 it narrows and then flares back out again. Also the 30, but that's got two seats.

Laying out my diorama elements (nothing except the tank is finished yet). Looking for some C&C. The table looks a little bare. I want to put more stuff on it, but I can't think of anything else mechanics would have lying about it. The Tamiya engine maintenance kit parts are already all used up. Spare tools from other tanks, maybe?

More spare tools and parts. Maybe some canteens or cups, an ashtray, a radio or record player ?

I don't think I have a record player, but I found some more bits. I'm moving the engine cover to the table since the underside doesn't look very good when it's open.

No that is totally normal, marmite and toothpaste are often used as a mask as well. Anything that will sit over a hard gloss finish and be washed off will work. No different from salt masking if you think about it.

It needs bolts. Tiny bolts. everywhere. On the table, on the floor, in the mechanic's mouth, pockets and ears. You end up with more bolts then you had starting when doing repairs in the field.

Pierzak showed me that this thread exists. I'm so excited. I recently built my first model as an adult (for wargaming) and wanted to post it here to get C&C from people who actually know what they're doing. 1/48 Tamiya.     I also did a Panzer II, but the decals came out weird (cloudy? silvered? I'm not sure what the term is) and I've since learned that you need to put down a layer of satin before applying decals. (I think?)  Baronjutter posted:I've been sick on and off for like a month and not really feeling very motivated to do anything, let alone trains. But I thought I'd get in there and clean the layout up a bit and take some pictures so I felt like I did "something". Someone on another site was asking for track pictures, so I took a bunch. So this is where I need to go to see your updates. Keep posting, I love this stuff.

Jonny Nox posted:I live-posted me making a really lovely Sopwith Triplane in the thread somewhere. You can do it! I remember that, because I've built that very same kit twice. From what I've seen most of Revell's 1/72 WW1 plane stuff originates in the same era as it, and they're all equally bad. Still not as terrible as that one though.
