Hello everyone!
Тhe base for my diorama is ready and hangar has feet on the ground. Of course after finishing planes I will still work on it.







I start to work on airplanes.

The decals are my workmanship and are based on the model of Edward. If someone decides to produce Rumey's plane in 1/72 I glad to help him with the PDF for printing.

 Hristo,
I do not know what I can add to all the well deserved praise my friend. I will say absolutely AWESOME though. Your hanger is nothing less than amazing. Such detail you have included in the build up! Your skill and craftsmanship certainly shine with the hanger and those amazing Albatros fighters. All in 1/72 scale as well. A special tip of my hat.Well Done my friend.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

i am impressed, your decals a very nice. i work mainly in 1/48 but would love to replicate rumey's demon. i wonder if it would be possible to re-size your artwork for 1/48? if so i would like to take you up on your offer for the pdf you made.

you are  very good brush painter. also i want to say i have an airbrush but i usually prefer to brush paint because to me it is advantageous many times to do so.as you know successful brush painting is making sure your paint is thinned properly . i have actually developed many effects with the brush that use translucent layers which allows preshading effects. i use many acrylic paints and after painting a basecoat i mix future(klear) with the original coat and use pastel or pigment powders to shade ribs and other things then of course paint translucent layers on top until the correct amount of shading shows thru. i often use dull cote by testors in the can to even out surfaces . like when i put decals on the wings and they are thick i like them to appear to be painted on not to look like a decal.if you put a few layers of dullcote this also helps blend everything and makes a nice overall effect.

Fantastic Hristo,

I love the corrugated metal finish on your hanger, very realistic.

Best wishes with the rest of the build,

Dave  :)

Hello everyone!
I'm glad that you like my work on the diorama.

First. I hope that the publication of individual decals does not violate the rules of this forum.
However, if I did, please administrator to delete this post, and I apologize for that.

You can use the decals in both scale 1/72 and 1/48.
To use them in 1/72 scale print at 100%.
To use them in 1/48 scale print at 150%.
The image is vector and there will be no loss of quality when scaling.
That is all.
The decals are attached to the post.
If you get stuck write me for further clarifications.

Best Regards
Hristo

This really an amazing project in any scale, but in 1/72, it's astounding!

Amazing. This hangar looks great. I am sure it will be great diorama in the end.
Thanks for pdf-s too.

    I just checked back into this post after a long absence, glad I looked again! Fantastic work, Hristo, the base, the Hangar, and the incredible detail on 1:72 subjects are so beautifully executed. I'll be following more closely as you near completion, what an impressive project! :o

Hello everybody!
I'm weatheting and assembled the models. For weathering used dry pastels to highlight the ribs - with their help, the outcome is best to work with a brush, and finally of course oil washes. For the first time I used a thin strip of masking tape by JammyDog-0.5mm, which is also very convenient and saves a lot of time. Highly recommend it. For ropes used two thicknesses 0.08 mm 0.12 mm cord, not that many shows.














That's it for now. Start a few figures and will be glad to any advice for them, especially in scale 1:72.

Best Regards
