Isamu test pilot Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) Hi everyone... This is the second model made by Guadalupe (Oscar´s student), it is the SV-51 gamma Ivanov type fighter 1/72 Hasegawa. As I explained in my last 2 topics, the work of this girl is impresive for me and I really love this model. Next week I will upload the pics of the VF-4 Valkyrie fighter 1/72 Retppu (original release) made by Oscar... Thank you very much Edited October 22, 2007 by Isamu test pilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jardann Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Very nicely done. Amazing work for a 15 year old. She definitely has some talent. The build is great, but I am especially intrigued by the base. Is it designed to be displayed vertically? I think that would be a cool way to display the model while saving some shelf space as well. I might like to make a vertical base for some airplane models in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you jardam... and you are right, the base is designed to display vertically, right now I have it horizontally only because I do not have a good place for it... Ok, here more pics of the model in the original vertical display designed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sdf-1 Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I don't like to be beaten by 15 year old girls. Looks awesome, and I like the display base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokefiend Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 nicley done. If I may ask, what was the colours she used on it? Mine turned out way too dark. I used Nato Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I asked her yesterday and she told me that she used a equal color from a company called Sherwyn Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jardann Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hah! Sherwin Williams makes house paint! But whatever works and looks right is good enough for me. I'm kind of surprised that it adheres well enough to the plastic model. Maybe she uses a good primer that allows the paint to stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
