Robs Scale Models

It's just where you are very precise with where the wash goes, such as on panel lines or around small detailed parts. Unlike the Flory type washes where you cover the whole model then wipe off the excess. In this case I'm using heavily thinner oils which are easy to manipulate.

Starting on the oil pin wash, first time trying this on a metallic surface so might not look great #histscalemodels

how do you find the SMS paints, I have some for my Lancaster but haven't used them yet.

a mix of different AK Xtreme metal and True Metal wax.

me too, that's why this build is taking so long 🙈

Almost time for decals on the fingerprint magnet #HistScaleModels

Typhoon syncro pass at #RIAT

Slow, uncharacteristically patient progress towards my dad's jet on Father's Day #histscalemodels

Thanks Stef 🙏

Italeri Biber in 1:35 scale

Finished the Biber as my contribution to a group build on the other place. I've got an M3 Stuart on the go but I think I need to get back to my safe place and get an aircraft on the bench #HistScaleModels

Just pack the essentials she said #HistScaleModels #Scalemodels

Not being a figure painter I'm quite happy with how one of these turned out, even if one looks sad and the other startled #HistScaleModels

Love the matt finish on that, what paints did you use?

Another cracker there Rhys 👍

Looks great John 👍

Biber (submarine) - Wikipedia

I know what you mean, it's a one man midget submarine from WW2 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biber_(...

Progress on the Italeri Biber. Finished painting the torpedoes, now onto the boat #HistScaleModels #ScaleModels

Not my finest work but it looks good against the blue sky so it's not all bad #HistScaleModels

I don't normally bother with 1/72 pilot figures, especially when the instructions call for their oxygen masks to be removed, but you can't have a Blue Angel F-18 without a Blue Angel pilot. #HistScaleModels

Next on the bench, this 1/35 midget submarine. #HistScaleModels This sub is so small even the real thing looks like a toy. www.ianclarkrestoration.com/158/RNSM-Bib...

Cheers Paul 👍

Thank you 👍

Rubicon Kingtiger finished. My first 1/56, an interesting and enjoyable kit but I'm looking forward to something a little bigger next. #HistScaleModels

The things you find on a wet and windy Sunday in Carmarthen, I'm almost tempted

Camo scheme complete, next job is to add the tools then get weathering #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Thanks Tim.

Time to hide some of this interior detail. I like the way Rubicon use magnets for the turret and kept some of the panels removable so the interior isn't permanently hidden. #histscalemodels

Sure, they are only £15 on Amazon amzn.eu/d/cwYpy2a

My new purchase was a game changer in helping me paint these 1/56 figures. #histscalemodels

Thanks John.
