Now that you mention it, actually...... yes, looks a bit like Eastwood!! Anastasios

Just be sure to use a primer before the silver, then the silver won´t chip for sure, only the acrylic will. And of course, the shiniest the silver is, the better. And give it time to cure, a week or so...... Anastasios.

To be honest Siggi, I'm not really sure! It's either Oak-A or Oak-B, had a photo in front of me and tried to do the best. Rickitycrate, if you weren't so far away, I could offer a paint for your busts. I love training on figures that I don't have to pay for, even if I have to send them back when they're ready! Anastasios

Yes, I used powder. The secret with chipping is that the silver is actually enamel but the green is acrylic! Acrylics, although they get a grip on shiny silver, can be chipped easily! Try it sometime, it works. Anastasios

Well, pretty much the original one!! After the primer, I painted the whole model with an Aluminium from SnJ and polished it. After that applied the Green/Grey and decals, weathered and then chipped the paint away with my nail. looked pretty convincing to me!! Your Jap looks really nice too!! Anastasios.

Speaking of chipping color, here are some photos of my last big airplane model, a Hasegawa 1/32 Zero with lots of PE stuff on it...... A lot of dust on it too, although I got it in a vitrine!! Anastasios.

Here are some more photos I just shot..... Shot them at natural light outside at my really cold balcony!

Well, Amy Johnson gets my vote!! And the Brasilian of course!!! Anastasios

Yes Sir, Belgium just take head in the race, even with this..... hhmmmmm...... smile! :-) +1 Anastasios

I´ll stick with the Aussie, she looks faaaaaaaaar better than the other two! But maybe a French will take the podium! ( I´m sorry to say that 100% of my genes are male, can´t help it) Anastasios.

I prefer the Aussie!! Any French suggestions?? Anastasios

I got to admit I don´t follow..... carrier in OFF? Download? What? How? ...... ?????? ....... ???? Anastasios

Ken Follet is LEGENDARY!! I remember his Albatros some 15 years ago, was absolutely amazing!! Weird only, I can´t find any pic of it!! BTW, I almost finished my current modeling project, nothing to do with WWI really but still, I´m going to post some photos here when it´s all done!! Anastasios.

And what´s the budget for all these, I mean the bluetooth adapter and Wii. Should be a three LED arrangement? Lots of questions, isn´t it? But thanks in advance!! Anastasios.

Welcome back Olham, even pink!! ;-) Good to have you among us!! Anastasios

Freetrack works and it´s easy to build, I swear!! Yes, I´m a non North American!! :-)) But I know nothing about the bluetooth/Wii combo, I thought it´s not yet supported. Anybody knows how it works?? Anastasios.

Amazing work as usual, thanks guys!!! Anastasios

Looks really great!! Anastasios.

It is mentioned as a "Taube" but as far as I know it isn´t. I´m no expert though. The photos are from my hometown, Thessaloniki, Greece, at February 1916. At the time, a strong French expeditionary force was in the city and advancing northwards. The plane was set at show in front of the "White Tower", the city´s major landmark, from upon the second photo was shot. I suppose the first is from the "crash" or land site. Any tips on which type of aircraft is and maybe any other info on this incident? Which unit came from for example? Thanks for any tips, Anastasios.

Hey Gous, please believe me, I mean it from heart, that´s EXACTLY the reason I left!!! Keep up the faith, euxaristw, episis......

Hey Gous! Nice to read some Greek here! Wouldn´t expect it at all. And from someone with a DK badge as his photo and a Frenchie from Monty Pythons and the Holly Grail as his avatar, that´s another surprise indeed. I´m sure I´m stuck here for ever now and believe me, it´s good to know! Wrees oi fwto apo tin 8essaloniki, etsi? Kai malista prin apo tin purkagia tou 1917! (a bit more greek babbling :-) please forgive us! ) Anastasios

Wow, I´m impressed!! You guys rock! Apart from the aircrafts in OFF, my knowledge base of WWI aircrafts is really limited, but you got it in you. Thanks for all the tips and hints, I really appreciate it. An early Albatros B.I in Reccon role on a mountainous environment at the Balkan Front. Quite interesting. Thanks again people, I love this community! Anastasios.

Wonderful, thanks OBD!! Anastasios

Happy New Year to everybody in this wonderful community!! The dedication here feels more like a club than a game forum, I am happy to be here. My best sincere wishes to all of you!! Anastasios.

Have a nice trip Olham and have fun. Don´t forget your foto camera, sure Ostfriesland looks great in winter. And of course, Guten Rutsch!! Anastasios.
