Model Sunday

[Lancair IV]

Almost completed 1/48 hobbyboss F4F-4 Wildcat

I got hung up on some details on both my Monza and my Fiat so I took a break and worked on this model.

Here is my Eye Gone Wild by Von Franco.

The kit went together very quickly. The kit is mostly box stock but I did curl the spikes a bit and add other details including an eyeball shift knob.

This is the fiirst time I tried to do some dry brushing . This was fun to do since I didn't have to stress over scale colors or details.

How in the heck is that staying up like that ????

Combined smooth application of the clutch and mashing of the throttle will bring your front end right up...

(You find something to prop up the front end like a Pocher Monza and then photoshop it out of the picture)

Gentlemen, it's been awhile but I designed a 90 degree V twin engine several months back. It will be an operating gas engine with a bore and stroke of 1.00x1.25. It will have exposed overhead valves, air cooled and pressure oil system. I have the crankcase, gear cover, crankshaft, gears, rocker arms and cams almost finished. Everything is machined from solid. The crankcase is aluminum, the vavles are stainless steel, the rods and crank are steel and the cams are tool steel. I'm hoping to have it finished by springtime.

One thing to add: I did finish my first Bugatti type 251. (It just needed some laquer over a decal , and the windshield.)

The second one came a long way (there are 3 versions).

Also the T43 to T40 conversion got some sanding , and can be primered again. (which I do at work, heated space, dust filters, etc). Hope to say that that one is blue, for next sunday!

I'm looking forward to seeing what you've done on Sunday, Herman.
