Thanks Jason, that was fortunately the intention I try to learn something from your clean builds!

Thanks Lou. Just a bit more body to the algea and yet another build is finished. After that I can spend the little time I've left to continue on Seydlitz

It is a joy to follow your builds, Steve, and at times send you in the wrong direction to test your sharpness (just pulling your leg). I'll have to go back to the picture, yet again. Soon it will be engraved in my "brain". Do you know yet , how many of those lovely sisters you have to make including jumpsuits?

Well seamster(?) I found something else unfortunately ... I don't want to be the bearer of bad tidings, Steve. However, you have got far to many pipes running from fore to aft. Support pipes seem to be alright, as are the transversal ones. As far as I can distinguish only four pipes are running from front to back, both at the outsides, and at the sides of the centre structure. There is an additional horizontal transversal pipe just below the top for strength I presume at the fore. By the way, it still does look good the way it is now, nobody will know if I delete my post

Tape them shufflers to their spot. Use e.g. masking tape. As Kevin so eloquently put it: Fantastisch (the Dutch version)

Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-9 by Jörgen - Eduard - 1:48 - PLASTIC
cog replied to Jörgen's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Jörgen, Thank you for elaborating on the paint subject. I am still experimenting. I found Lifecolor a real pain for the airbrush, but I found it fabulous to paint with a brush. I like the Vallejo for hand painting, and am still using it as airbrush paint besides Tamiya. I have tried Humbrol which sprays quite nice, but found I wasn't comfortable leaving my airbrush in the stand for more than half a minute (it's between the ears I presume) I would like to give MRP a try, but will have to empty a few bottles first before I start buying paints (again) I liked the result of the Vallejo metal paints, although some of them were not that "metal" chrome., aluminum, and silver do look a lot like eachother. Which brings me to the AK Extreme metal paints. Those seem to be more realistic than any I've seen, so I'll be watching your paint sessions with great interest. I recently got myself some AK enamels for weathering ship's hulls. The initial result looks not to shabby. The MIG oil brushes work quite nice too and give quite good contol At what age do you teach your daughter the fine art of airbrushing? I presume it is not the todler on your arm in your avatar!
