FT 17 - 1:15

[Marcel du Long]

Seriously, this is so impressive on both modeling & painting level!
Awesome job.

Marcel.

 

[Peter van Dijk]

Peter, geen probleem, mijn schaal is 1/15, Takom - 1/16. Er zijn een paar insecten, geen verschillende nummers op de onderdelen en kettingschakels, statische suspensie, geen cast oppervlak gegoten..... etc ......
Thanks 🤣 - Andy

ah yes... your model is far better detailed... in a way, we can say that the real amateurs are the model-companies 😈 (at least most of them..)
Happy modelling Andy

 

[Andy Jasinski]

Thank you guys. 😳
Everything good in the new year ... ... ... ... ....
A few new details.
Best Regards-Andy

 

[Ronald Schoenmakers]

Hello Andy,

Amazing work !

I am currently busy with the Takom 1/16 FT
So I am following this thread with great interest.

I see that on a lot of parts you put on casting numbers
Can you tell me what you use for those numbers....

greetz Ronald

 

[Andy Jasinski]

Ronald, it's very easy, silicone, resin, a little different small strings from models, from small household appliances ... ... ... ...
Andy

 

[Jan-Cees Grinwis]

🤣 What a skils !!!!

 

[Ronald Schoenmakers]

Thanx for the info

I tried to shave the numbers off the sprues with a sharp knive but that didnt go to well....

[Andy Jasinski]

Andy

 

[Victor de Waal]

Soms zit ik me werkelijk af te vragen of ik nu naar een foto van het model zit te kijken of van het echte voorbeeld.
Ik blijf het knap vinden wat sommigen kunnen. 😀

 

[Andy Jasinski]

Hello 😀
Once upon a time there were new things to FT ... Slowly, however, the work moving forward ...

[Roger Hurkmans]

Andy,

Your FT looks extremely realistic,very well done! The leather straps look like real leather ...is it?

Roger

 

[Peter van Dijk]

Excellent craftmanship Andy ! lovely, those straps you made

strapless greetings 😉
Peter

 

[Andy Jasinski]

Thank you guys ... 😀
Yes, it is true thin skin (from the old portfolio). However, I will do a new buckle - flatter and instead of leather, metal loops will. So it is much better ....
Yours -Andy
