bugoy2004 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 mahal po ba ang ganitong hobby depende sir. if you're starting out you can buy a 1/35 armor kit below 500 pesos. you can use your nailclippers and nailfile to snip and smoothen out the parts before assembly. and you'll need paint which goes for 75 pesos per 10ml bottle. and liquid cement (tamiya Extra Thin) for P180. you can try brush painting with acrylics para pag nagkamali, just use alcohol or acetone to strip the paint and start over. most important of course is patience and passion for the subject you are building. para matipid sa paint you can buy a kit na isang kulay lang. pwede mo naman tingnan yung instruction sheet and painting guide para malaman mo kung anong kulay kelangan mo Quote Link to comment

Dr_PepPeR Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b40/9723761/DSC_0031.jpg This is a diorama I did some time ago. I basically just wanted to provide a base for all my russian figures so they wouldnt get lost and at the same time, I could also put them on display. That explains the rather mixed quality of figures that are in this diorama. Some of the figures here were made almost 8 to 10 years ago, and others are more recent additions. I still have to venture into 1/35 figure painting, it looks scary. Nice diorama sir, and I like the weathering of the tank. Could you post some closeups of the tank? Quote Link to comment

Maybe when it comes home Ill be able to take close up shots. Quote Link to comment

Yup, try to get in contact with him so that he can give you a personal tour + a free lunch :thumbsupsmiley: There are three other large sized dioramas in the AFP museum that are made by our members. Those are all philippine ww2 themed dios, so get ready for some suicide carabao action! :cool: Quote Link to comment

Could this also be true of the PAF museum? I'll also have to find out if the PMC has its own museum, my father was a former commandant. Suicide carbao action... the diorama possibilities!

I might have it somewhere in my stash. I tried looking at DML's Panzer I kits but all they had were link to link tracks, I was hoping one of the kits would have rubber band tracks as an alternative.

Boelcke Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Latest off my bench. I got into this side GB of sorts with some of my clubmates. Its supposed to be a What-If PAF F-16 vs. PAF Gripen build. Ive built a What If PAF Gripen before, so I built an F-16 this time. This is the 1/72 Italeri kit. Made the PAF decals myself.

bugoy2004 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 excellent build sir! i like the camo i wish i could make canopies that clear Quote Link to comment
steiner Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Very nice build sir! Nice work on th canopy, crystal clear finish. Sad thing is that the PAF getting a squadron of F-16's is a pipe dream give the corruption in this country and the the way the modernization program is dead in the water. Latest off my bench.

bugoy2004 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 hi folks. here's a quickie build i did over the weekend. i just wanted to build something straight out of the box. for a change i guess. i did not even bother to sand the seams at the turret. but like i said, straight out f the box. no research. just a sprue cutter, liquid cement, paint and decals. something a twelve year old would have done i guess. it's Hobby Boss's 1/48 M4A3 Sherman. enjoy! happy building!! http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q200/reyanipan/sherman/sherman034.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q200/reyanipan/sherman/sherman035.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q200/reyanipan/sherman/sherman041.jpg http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q200/reyanipan/sherman/sherman045.jpg Quote Link to comment
Boelcke Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Thank you for the compliments! Bugoy, great job on the Sherman! Quote Link to comment
bugoy2004 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Danke Herr Boelcke! Quote Link to comment
steiner Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Danke Herr Boelcke! I agree. Very nice job on the sherman! If in a diorama it can use a little more weathering but as is it is fine! Quote Link to comment
Dr_PepPeR Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) Very impressive F-16 Herr Boelcke, I now want to do a 1/72 wingy this weekend! Nice decals and camo scheme and I especially liked the weathering on the exhausts. I'll post here the 1/72 jet kits I plan to work on during the weekend to show you what I've got. Same goes for Bugoy's Sherman. Love that two tone olive drab. I wish I could do a quick build like that but every time I work on an AFV I want to weather it to death. Did you leave the tracks unpainted? BTW did you guys ever notice that the Tamiya Acrylic Olive Drab is now a lot greener? I was going to buy a new bottle at Lil's and when I looked at the bottom of the jar, the color of the paint was way way off the color of the paint cap. I have to shelve my Zvezda Panzer I for the meantime until I can find the tracks. I feel like tackling one of Dragon's kits with indi links, just to vent out my frustration with losing those tracks grrrr! Edited September 11, 2009 by Dr_PepPeR Quote Link to comment
bugoy2004 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Thanks doc! Haven't dry brushed the tracks yet. I noticed that about tamiya's acrylic OD. That's why i sprayed mr. Color OD2 on it. To give some lighter shade to it ü Quote Link to comment
