That one shown in the line art is physically impossible to achieve. Notice how much longer the rear flat of the tail section is once its shown folded in that last frame? The artists have taken some liberties to show it folded I think.

Sand blaster.... Decals for all three Wave Destroids will be scanned in 3 hrs (lunch break) and I'll post a link to a photobucket where I'll put them.

between racing, work and kitchen renos I got a tiny bit more done on the horde of models including the street scene, and sprayed up a quick test of the camo patterns for them. Seems to work.

Solution for the cable clutter problem is to use Enameled Wire. Its hair thin and carries enough current to run your LEDs. For SMDs try Neopixels, you get blinding light thats fadeable, they only need 3 wires to run them even in a daisy chain of 80 and you can still program and control them individually while daisy chained using a Trinket board.

God I havent been in a SeaKing since 2000! Shark 07 "Suai Sally" The Timor Express of 817 Sqn International Rescue. Looking at the interior of that model brings back memories, like why the hell does it only have a door and weapon station on one side?? Does the Navy only ever flying to contact sideways? Love how you've scuffed up the deck.

this ripoff/knockoff version has provisions for 65mm rods to be fitted. Not full length but better than nothing.

how did you do the Regult Kill markings? -
and keep the blutac away from your cockpit screen decals... I use it to mask off intakes and cockpits once they are done to paint the outside and have pulled up a screen decal before... no going back from that one!

How long has your one been holding the Valk Horizontally? Its not showing signs of bending?

I really want to know how the control centre was built!

250mm deep inside the hangar. 350mm is needed behind the hangar rear wall for the linear actuator... although as I type this I realize I can actually run the arm on a rail on the ceiling of the hangar and not though the rear wall! that shrinks the size alot!
-
Thanks for the tute on tinting too
-
It only has to move 250mm to clear the hangar doors with wings fully open from my measurements last night. So with the box in the ceiling I need another 350mm max clearance to the roof tiles for the Actuator to slide in and out. Same if I use a guide rail with a rack & pinion set to move it.

Thanks! I thought I had checked and it was out of stock! And yeah...1399.00 was the price... if you look on Amazon right now there is one for $329.16... Got to love a trier I guess. Just bought 4 sets of them

Two Arms arrived today...!!! So... how to make the arms extend out of the hangars once the doors have opened. One idea is to make an extension off the back of the arm to run along a spinning threaded rod. Another is to have guide rails and a belt drive on the back of the arm shaft. Linear Actuators...

Anyone have an idea as to the worth of a Wave H-Hanger? Need a few of them and I've seen prices from not alot to 1399USD!! Need them to make two hangars for the Launch arms I have.

NZEOD replied to ARK 3's topic in The Workshop!
mine runs 10 PC fans Pretty quiet and good air flow. 3 PC fans wont move a lot of air at all. Its not enough. The volume of air being extracted has to be equal to or greater than the volume of air coming out of the airbrush otherwise it will still swirl out of the box and into the room. -
How do you mean? Gun powder would work too. Couple of grains on the surface and flash them with a flame. Instant heat scorch and particulates.

yeah we never do that... no one wants to see your girl take a hit. Ours are more our personal icons/logos and nicknames. APCs carry Grunts and they where green berets here so an APC got tagged at "Canned Vegies" and another as "Canned Cabbage", the Resup guys tagged the tanker as "The Water Boyz" and had a blue/black version of the Blood Angels logo Many years in the NZ Army...
