This is the wing to the Spad XIII. Of course being a biplane part of the fun is having to build two wings.
Ian not content thta his skills were being used enough building up most of the layout as the rest of us learned along the way set himself a goal of scratchbuilding a wagon works shed so that it was different to what you could buy off the shelf but also a challenge for him to!Hers the result as it was made and installed in the wagon works yard..more pics courtesy of Ian Harper
In addition here we see some excellent scratchbuilt overhead hoists by Richard Slate who i thorughly recommend and makes some excellent bespoke items...
Scratchbuilding a front bumper foa a 1/12 scale Monogram 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. The material I'm using is called Durepoxi, and it's a epoxy putty that can be molded and sculpted.

Finally got the Republic Frigate done, with a few hours to spare! Unlike the cruiser I used pen here to emphasise the lines, to make it match the look in the Clone Wars cartoon.
I think the hull colour is a bit TOO white, but time will rectify that. :)
My first attempt at scratch building...
Saucer Section finally attached to engineering hull.
I have also created the bridge from a Christmas cracker bowling pin.
Next is the bottom section of the saucer- see the shape on the left of the model.

I decided to remaster one part I'd bodged together. This one will be molded, cast and included in the Mummy Key kits. This will at least make some hardened modelmaker smirk.
