To strip, or not to strip this chrome plating on this runner from the Tamiya Lotus 25.
It adds a ton of work, but would like to remove the toy like curse

These aren't the best photos, #histscalemodel friends, because the diorama was almost too big for my lightbox! 😬
This was a really fun, relaxing project. No major crapups, and even though I made it more involved than I intended, everything fell together nicely.
Thanks for following along!

Painting for the K30 truck is done. Started with a grey primer before moving on to the Caunter scheme. I used AK real colours, for the Pale Stone, Silver Grey and Slate colours. I used a small Valentine as a test mule. #histscalemodel #scalemodel #scalemodelling #airfix

Canberra TT18 model getting its decals on
Adding decals to the Canberra TT.18. It's a slow and rather painstaking process, using a fairly old Modeldecal sheet. Lots of carrier film is trimmed, then gunk under each film washed away. But all said and done, they are pretty good and they settle perfectly!

Hey the #scalemodel #histscalemodel #gunpla community, do you know if the H&S needles and nozzles for 2024 Evo/infinity/ultra work for earlier models? I got an Evolution silverline and I think about getting a spare in case the ones I have get damaged.

An impressive aviation artwork captures a vintage seaplane in flight, soaring over a serene coastal landscape with detailed rendering and realistic lighting. The composition places the seaplane prominently in the upper half of the frame, angled slightly towards the viewer, drawing immediate attention. The aircraft is positioned to dominate the scene, with its wings extending across the canvas. The framing emphasizes the aircraft's dynamism and the vastness of its environment. Below, a textured coastline unfolds, featuring a sandy beach, a winding road, scattered vegetation, and a few buildings, suggesting human presence. The ocean occupies the right and background, with gentle waves lapping the shore and distant hills forming a soft horizon. The overall scene is one of peaceful observation, focusing on the mechanical marvel against a natural backdrop. The primary subject is a single-engine seaplane, depicted with meticulous detail. It is predominantly silver with yellow wingtips and accents of red and white on its armament (likely a bomb). The aircraft features a radial engine at the front, a clear canopy revealing a cockpit, and large floats beneath the fuselage for water operations. The markings "2X1" are visible on its tail, indicating a specific identification. The aircraft appears to be of mid-20th century design, likely a reconnaissance or light bomber seaplane. There are no human figures depicted, placing the sole focus on the machine and its environment. This artwork is a painting, likely executed with acrylic or oil paints, given the rich textures and blended colors. The style is highly realistic, aiming for a photorealistic representation of the aircraft and its surroundings. Technical execution is evident in the precise rendering of the aircraft's mechanical components, the subtle reflections on its metallic surface, and the detailed depiction of the natural elements.

This image showcases a promotional graphic for a model kit of the TB.2 UAV, featuring the aircraft set against a dramatic sky background. The image is composed with the TB.2 UAV prominently positioned in the center, angled to suggest motion against a backdrop of clouds, with text elements arranged around it. The framing creates a sense of dynamic presentation, with the UAV appearing to be in flight. The positioning of the text and logos, which include scale information, the brand name, and the "Ukrainian Navy" association, offers a clear visual hierarchy, guiding the viewer’s eye through the important details. The composition is balanced and designed to be visually appealing, and the layout focuses on the subject, maximizing its impact. The main subject is the Bayraktar TB.2, a medium-altitude long-endurance (MALE) unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV), painted in the colors of the Ukrainian Navy. The drone features distinctive wings, a tail fin bearing markings, and a propeller. The fuselage is painted light gray, and carries the number "75" along with the "Ukrainian Navy" inscription and other markings. The model seems to be rendered with considerable detail, showing panel lines, and other realistic features. The artistic medium appears to be digital design, possibly a composite image incorporating a rendered 3D model of the UAV, set against a digitally created sky background. The style is professional and highly detailed, intended for promotional purposes. The color palette incorporates shades of blue and gray that create a cool, somewhat realistic tone. The technical execution is clean, and the artist's choice of lighting creates shadows that contribute to the illusion of depth and a sense of realism. The setting appears to be the sky, with white clouds dominating the background, creating a sense of aerial expanse. The lighting seems to be soft and diffused, creating subtle shading on the UAV and the clouds.
