Halberstadt CL.II 1/48 MirageHobby
« on: August 01, 2015, 03:58:54 AM »
Hello there!!!!

So, Im back home but not fully behind my work bench which I intend to return after 22/08/2015...however I would like to ask for any pictures of interior of this magical bird so I can add some more details ot it. Works will go on on my Fokker too and I will try to do "speed" build even though I know Im pretty slow and will probably have to finish it when I move oversees.

I started today by cleaning some parts but leaving on Sunday again as I have some visa interview in Vienna so I dont want to get too much into it. Im just adding my intended camouflage scheme. Again, 1/48 is not my major scale in great war but since Im waiting for halberstadt to be realase by wnw (note: wishfull thinking) I will try to put this one into my collection before that happens :)



I already ordered some goods from Aviattic, will be using HGW seatbealt and resin engine - both provided by Hellboy (Libor Muzik) and hopefully practising some (small) schrathed parts.

Im very excited to share another of my builds with this forum and its members...God, I missed this forum so much!!!!

Good choice, Lukas!  I'm looking forward to following your progress.  I built this one a few years back and absolutely loved it.  I did Brunhilde.
Cheers,
Bud

Hi guys!!!

Great to see your support even before building the plane itself. Today I'm practising mottled camouflage using Drooling Bulldogs paints before I get into cockpit and also ordered new gun barrels from Master :)



It is just piece of plastic that Im using for trying new things. Picture is very zoomed in so surface looks very rough... should be smoother on fuselage when doing final version :) What do you think? Too rough?
