Mikeew Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 As my title says, I got some better pics of my Italeri C-130J Hercules as the others were in artifical light, taken on my workbench and had clutter in the background. Apologies to those who've already seen my previous pics. And thanks for all the kind feedback and enthusiasm shown whilst I built her, hard to believe I started on this way back in Aug '06 :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 It looked great on the previous pictures and it looks great on these new ones as well! I just love the very subtle weathering you've done on that Herc. And that cargo pallet inside looks nice! I did just go past 1000 posts... I had kinda reserved it for some special thread and this was it. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PapaSmurf630 Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Christ Mike, you're sure gutsy for getting that up close an personal with your model. Pictures like that usually show all sorts of flaws in the plastic and paint! From what I can see the paintwork looks wonderful. Even the windows came out crisp, which was one area I was looking forward to seeing up close. Hard to think this is in 1/72. Sure got me wanting to build one! Which isn't a good thing!!

Graham T Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 In Hannants today, I "fondled" the 1'48 Italeri C130J. In the end, I decided against it - it's one BIG b*gger! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
