An ugly duckling into a beautiful swan. !!!
What a transformation.!!
I really need to know if the "Machined metal" look on the nose is a decal, or the actual 'texture' of the mould please ????
This is just amazing. I love her. !!

Great result out of such a simple kit.
Must be decal or some tricky painting/polishing IMHO - on pic 5 it's not yet visible.
But I'm interested in the details of that technique too 🙂

Helo guys, thanks for your comments, I am really glad you liked it. As you implied, the metal texture of the nose is in fact a decal I made, if you are interested, I can send you the patern for you to print on clear decal film.

Just what the doctor ordered, as I am looking for that machined metal look for the mounting plate for my "Wasp" I am currently building.

Hanno Kleinecke

Eduardo, I am back to see how your "Spirit" turned out and to take a better look at all you albums as part of my "Grand Tour", visiting all the mates on my :Mates list" and having a good look at all the albums to see what sort of things everyone does.
From the looks of what you have posted, I am most impressed with all you have done mate.
But I do like what you did with that "Chunk Of Plastic", turning it into a real masterpiece.
Your an other of the talented ones I am glad to say I put on my mates list.
Love your models.
Cheers.
Now I am off to the next on my list. 🙂
