  1. It's on preorder at the usual suspects.
  2. @wm cheng Thank you. It's Trumpeter's F/A-18 A, which I find pretty good & affordable. Their F/A-18 C would probably be closer to the Kuwaiti machine, but the only difference I could spot are the number of antennas on the rudders. Since I could not source the aftermarket decals for the Kuwait air force, the kit will remain unfinished to a certain degree, but still be beautiful to look at.
  3. Decals and more bits and pieces are added
  4. The Ourtreasure blog has a release date of the IP Junchoon at late July, with pre-orders starting on Feb. 24th. Price is 7.800 Yen + taxes. http://ourtreasure.co.jp/2023/02/20/インジェクションキット「エンゲージsr3-後期型」/
  5. Make carrier landings fun again!
  6. The price is pretty reasonable considering the rate of aftermarket decals. And you get the figure on top.
  7. Never heard about that, but it seems like a cool tool, thanks! Today:
  8. Uhm but you don't want to use RGB for pigment colors (raising all color component values woud lead to white in RGB/additive, which of course never happens with paint). The CMYK system is your friend here. If you want to further de-saturize your mix, you could add yellow, or grey if you want to keep the more reddish hue.
  9. When you don't have any F-18 walkway decals...
  10. More pics of the Junchoon plastic kit are coming:
  11. Back to work...
  12. Red is the culprit here, as it contains yellow (it's a mix of magenta and yellow) and will de-saturate your mix and push into the grey-brown area. If you want a redder hue of blue, add purple (it's yellow-free) to the mix. If you're using Tamiya acrylics, you can mix a wide range of blues from Sky Blue X-14 and Purple X-16.
  13. Awesome 1/12 gang:
  14. Not new, but in 2015 concept designer GMUNK & friends took a dive into a wild Mystery Trawn Project: https://gmunk.com/TRON-Concepts
  15. Very sorry to ressurect this zombie, but Col Price posted some conept art from "huge movie that unfortunately got pulled" that very much might have been the LARTM
  16. Some beautiful angles:
  17. Ourtreasure's outstanding Junchoon will be produced as an 1/144 IP kit!
  18. Leave it to the private contractors to come up with attractice camo schemes again:
  19. With their Evil kit just out, Orange Cat presents the next kit in the line, the Sol Tekkaman: I'm currently snapping the Evil kit together, and I'm impressed with the sculpt & the engineering.
  20. Have Elon Musk buy ENCOM – this stuff just writes itself... 😄
  21. @wm cheng Thank you for the nice gift for the weekend. All museum quality masterpieces IMO! Which software did you use for the focus stacking?
  22. Thank you for sharing the making of this masterpiece.
