Hello all,
First time I've posted something for ages.
This is my latest project. Does anyone know what it is?
Cheers!

Very nice Zak.
I always like your attention to detail and getting the correct figures, equipment, setting right.
Another modelling incursion into another interesting historical period.
Another one to look forward at a future meeting.

Here is the castle from the "Assault of Medieval Fortress" set.
Extra work has been done and I am still waiting for the moat to dry completely before I add another layer or two.

This was not a particularly great kit, but maybe I was having an off day.
The kit contains knights, soldiers, and so on. I am not sure of their make but they are really poor mouldings!

More of the awful figures, again poor detail and lots of mis moulding.
Medieval pike man, again they came with the MiniArt Castle.

Hi All,
A little update. The cockpit side walls have been painted and decalled. I used a very dark grey, then applied a coat of 'Kleer'. After this had dried I gave it a wash of heavily thinned black oil paint. Once dry a dry brush with some light grey paint to highlight details.
The floor received a similar finish but I stopped short on the top of the bulkhead as I want to fill any gaps once the fuselage and cockpit interior is all glued in place. A slight difference was that around the rudder pedals and floor I added scratches from a silver coloured pencil where the boots would mark the paintwork.
The instrument panel was painted up. I added the dials individually from some Airscale instrument decals and some Reheat dials too. Those that were too big I just got a suitable size punch and die and punched the centre part I wanted. A few dots of colour added, admittedly using personal choice to add intrest.
All the above now need a sealing coat of Satin Varnish, and the the fuselage halves joined.
Some pictures follow, thanks for looking.
Kevin
