Thank you so much faustas100 , brilliant seeing it out from under the other pieces, I love the way the 8rad piece covered the square holes , I wonder did that dictate the spacing for them all. I wonder were the layout of pieces were organic as they fit them , I hope so considering the short time they had to build it compared to the rebel blockade runner

 

[faustus100]

Glad I could help. Just remember that everything on that deck is not even. Probably because they had to rush like you mentioned. I had to do mine twice!


The good news is that the bottom one is pretty easy in comparison

 

[Vacformedhero]

Wow Faustus , amazing work, it's not obvious it's uneven unless you study it hard, do you feel it looks more correct matching the model rather than when it was straight ? (I know for me having symmetry helps when judging where to site items )
even wrong it looks sooooooo right

 

[faustus100]

It's not off by much actually. The only problem is that you only really notice it when your building it lol. So many greeblies at least 200 if I remember correctly, maybe more.(and layered!) It can get a little confusing. I found it was best to walk away a few times and then start over fresh the next day or so.

Your shot of the lower assembly is the first time I have seen this clearly , wow , it's unique as well, I thought it was just damper assemblies , I didn't realise it also has kettenkrad details ,
your work is stunning , thanks for sharing

 

[Vacformedhero]

Let me know if you need to see more.

To follow up on the help I received here, here are shots of the red box airfix 1:24 scale hurricane I picked up today half price. This looks close enough to me to use.

Hi friends,
I hope you are well and that your editing progress.
I have two quick questions , because I block a bit to my beginnings :/
What is the differences between :
8'0 '' and 8 ''? in metric system.
second question, concerning the radar dish .
I have a "plan" (a picture I had posted here by the way) on it,
the base of the radar base is 4'00 '' ...
but I 'm not sure of that by the different post on the forum, because there is not indicated in diameter ...
Do you have an idea ?

8'0" is 8 feet, 0 inches. 8" is 8 inches. 8'0" = 2,438.4 mm; 8" = 203.2 mm. I believe the diagram is full size measurements, not scale measurements. In full size, 8 feet looks about right for the dish. 1 inch = 25.4 mm.

 

[blackeagles]

Oh thank you!
So this explains it ^^
I will see to convert scale studio ... lol not win it all!
Thank you very much for your lights !!!
Do you have an idea for the diameter of the base of the radar dish , by chance ?

 

[blackeagles]

Faustus ,
I saw one of your pictures ( that I put in attachment).
I confirm.
photo attached piece ...
Fantastic find

Hi Blackeagles
Sorry,can't fully figure out what your saying. If your trying to give me the Id for that part I've had it for a very long time. But thanks anyhoo.

 

[blackeagles]

Hi Faustus ,
I was just saying that I confirmed to the party from the rotary engine.
Very Beautiful assembly !!!
I will mail an MP .

Hello,
I know there is a file for 3D printing of this part .
Look in to the preceding pages

Happy New Year friends!

I will post a map of Dish, tell me what you think, and feel free to correct dimensional errors.

good day, may the force be with you !!!

My minicraft catalog from 1977 lists #728 Anzio Annie rail gun and #732 Thor (Morser) 60 cm rail mortar as being available .

The squadron mail order catalogue from spring 1976 (no. 10) lists only 728 Anzio Annie as being new from Haegawa. No mention is made of Thor.

From the above I would speculate that the Haseqawa Thor (Morser) was released

happy new year 5 foot builders,I have been reviewing the thread from the beginning to renew my enthusiasm to kick off the actual 5 foot build (also by stating this I have to actually do something about it) a quick confirmation , are all the above kits 1:72 scale ?

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

Almost the same question:

in MF025 1.1 the number 2 ESCI SD Kfz 251 is at 1/76 scale, but I only can find this kit at 1/72, is this a typo?

 

[blackeagles]

Hi motionminted,
I think it's an error, but old scale was 1/76.
the matchbox hanomag sd.kfz 251/1 is 1/76
I've got the german hanomag Sd.kfz 251.1 by ESCI, scale is 1/72
But, I can not find the right piece in the box ESCI ...So 2 solutions:
Error model on the 25 1.1 or recast mold ....
I'm going try the ESCI SD KFZ 251/51 Rocket Launcher ...

Didn't Revell-Germany rebox a bunch of the Matchbox armor kits?
