1:32 spoked wheels
« on: July 20, 2012, 07:34:57 AM »
I was sent an email with the following photo from Steven, he has asked me to ask the members if they would like him to write an article on how to build 1:32 scale spoked wheels, he will do a tutorial with a description and photos. I know I will certainly be interested, spoked wheels add a touch of "class" to a WW1 model.

Although not my scale, I would love to see that tutorial.

Yes please! Spoked wheels give WW1 models a certain elegance so I would love to see how they can be done. The more photos the better.

Tutorials like this and for other techniques would be very welcome

I'd like to read that tutorial also to see if creating spoked wheels could fall within my skillset.

Cheers,

Yes, this is very important!  I believe that the techniques in 1/72 and 1/48 using PEs would not work well for 1/32. 8)

Yes, by all means!  Bring it on...

Not that I could do it, but it would be great seeing the technique.
