Multiple projects ongoing at the same time. To the Tamiya Mosquito, I started Miniart Dora and absolutely horrendous Aichi by ZTS Plastyk, which is intended to be painted by my 4yo so idc. Do the thick tamiya decals peel or do i need to sand them down? Does anyone know? #histscalemodels

Trying the oil dot technique on 1:72 plane. I might have little bit overdone it, but it is supposed to be May 45. Also it is advisable not to do it on matt finish #histscalemodels
To my surprise, i managed to break up the tones of upper camo on the Mosquito and in my eye it doesn't look too bad. Now I'm pondering if to use the tamiya decals or rather mask the "don't step" area. #histscalemodels
Airfix Spitfire mk.22. I call it #finishedkits before i destroy it by some more tweaking. S ared to add more gloss. When cutting canopy parts out of sprue, pieces of it got ripped off 🙄. Spinner is backwards. It was fun, nevertheless. Now towards ruining the Mosquito 🙈 #histscalemodels
Tried new template for preshading and sprayed on layer (or three) of medium sea gray. Can't say I would encounter any problem this time. That's first 😄 I guess quality of an airbrush matters. #histscalemodels
Mosquito is primed and ready for paint job. The props are also primed but still on the sprue, i guess I do that part wrong. Other thing which ruins this plane... is dust. It's everywhere here. How do you fight dust? #histscalemodels
From now on, I am buying masks. Cause I'm not doing this on the Ju-88 i have in stash... 😮💨😮💨😮💨 #histscalemodels
I like Ak's True Metal wax. Now. I will see how long it dries. And yes, carpet monster ate my cannon. #histscalemodels
I joined the fuselage halves on my mosquito and couldn't resist to dry-fit wings and gear. It is massive beast and surprisingly heavy in hand. Makes me happy 😀 #histscalemodels
I am finding tamiya decals and especially the decal belts are not to my liking. Very much. It looks as ridiculous as my ammo feeders. #histscalemodels
Back from long vacation without scale modelling outlet. Now cutting into Tamiya Mosquito. #histscalemodels Yes, ammo belt is tape. I tried plastic but it didn't bend enough. I will eventually hide it.
Random three photos i took today at #eDay in Litoměřice. It was sauna in the exhibition halls in 39° heat 🥵 #histscalemodels
Weekend speedbuild on. Airfix Spitfire mk.XXII. I am lately drawn to silver bullets. #histscalemodels

The feeling when you live in country not keeping the feast day and you can afford to go (for first time in ages) for breakfast after dropping kids at the daycare, and not just rushing to grind at work. #freeday
Only suitable thing i have here for #Bastillebuild. We have lot of time... but let's rather start. #histscalemodels
I thought to rest from perfect detailed kits and bought zts plastyk model of RWD-6 for 3€. The 1970's tool didn't age well at all (clear parts the most) and so i dont need to feel sorry to experiment. So far I scratch build canopy, which is horrible but still better than in the kit. #histscalemodels
So... how are you making those waves on leading edge? Because cut toothpick and maskol isn't the ideal way apparently. #histscalemodels
Oil leak happened #histscalemodels. At same time I started to build 1/72 bf 109G-10 and continue with 1/48 Avia S-199.
The feeling you want to relax at second-hand 1978 Hasegawa/Hales F9F-2 Panther kit, because of wife-ordered #buildthestash challenge and you find out you ordered 3D cockpit decals for F9F-8 Cougar, and yet only because it doesn't fit. Did something like that ever happen to you? #histscalemodels
Every step of build I mess something up, stencils break, scratches, accidental glove prints. Antenna is glued on 4x. But I still like it. Won't take it to any competition tho 😃 at least I didn't scratch the glass this time. Yet wires and weathering left... And whatever breaks off 🙈 #histscalemodels
Kids are out on a cruise, so I'm trying to paint/write logo on tyres and to mount old style scratch built gun camera on the wing. #histscalemodels PS. Congratulations to everyone winning silverware for their models today.
After Christmas trip to fatherland i finally got to do something with my Spitfire. Tried to do some mild post-shading, but i dont really know, what im doing, imitating youtube 😀 And now im thinking, i should have maybe applied at least the big roundels first. #histscalemodels
Forgot #histscalemodels
I should have realized when i had to order new cockpit resin part, that other printed parts in the box would be also shot, pieces missing or cracked in frame. This is not what i had in mind when i heard superior detail. Closed cockpit it is then. My scratch building abilities are on lvl 1 of 100 🤡

Since the baby sleeps few meters from me and i can't use compressor to airbrush shading on my Spit, I started to build hybrid Avia S-199. Never worked with print parts, so I'm shocked how brittle they are. It took me 3 hours to clean only 5 parts. And still i managed to destroy some #histscalemodels

In jan 25 i took my 2yo daughter to aviation museum in Helsinki and brought back an Italeri starter kit of Spitfire mk.IX. And so i again picked my old hobby I've left 25 years ago up. Didn't build many nor imho really well. But I'm sure getting better and wardrobe full of kits 🙈. #histscalemodels
