It all looks so good. Good on you for keeping healthy with that monster bike- it makes everything more enjoyable. chuk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOLMES Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 HonzaK , Even when you build a model for FUN, you always still instill that magical quality to them, with the exacting details, the weathering, looking perfect, and the scribing is RIVETING to view{Yes , excuse the pun!} and of course the paint work...ALL add up to another MAGNIFICENT , SUPERB Model.. Oooh the BIKE is GREAT too... I suppose you want to be healthy !!!! :) { sitting around on the bench is not that much good eh?} Keep up the Modeling.. HOLMES :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Janissary Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Honza, so nice to see your work again. I have been looking forward to your models for inspiration! Please do not leave modeling. You owe it to us Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honza K. Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks for your comments gentemans! I am really happy that you like it. Here is some little progress... sorry for bad photos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Honza, i have to say, although i do admire the time and skills you used to rivet whole plane, it isn't very realistic for any plane. And especially for Me-262. That is because Me-262 had its panellines and rivets filled for most time. That is putty you see on these pictures: I hope you won't take my critique to close to you...It is just my personal opinion that rivets are not very realistic in this case. However, the beauty with modelbuilding is that you can build your models as you want. Some focus on accuracy, others don't. Paint job and the overall "feel" of the model is however terrific as usual, very nice and smooth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I must make it for best "look" If you know what i mean... This is model only for my home showcase, not for competitons... just for fun... and I want to have it more beautiful than real... :-) Edited February 21, 2011 by Honza K.
