Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorA few steps forward- and no longer entirely up to date: today I was able to apply the decals, and construction is progressing very smoothly and without any problems so far.

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorThank you for digging out these "oldie", Bernd! As a matter of fact that´s a fabolous Airfix kit; I am going for a second round, this time as a BOAC Whitley.

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorA few new pictures of the Firefly; slowly but surely, we're starting to see recognisable shapes! Have I mentioned that I really like these Special Hobby kits? Down-to-earth, stable shapes, useful components, and there's no shortage of fun to be had with the putty!

Roland Sachsenhofer Author...Progress on the Firefly too! Installing the clear parts was the only weak point in both kits so far, both here and with the Fulmar. Well, it was quite a challenge... 🙂

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorThis project has been running for some time now alongside other ventures that have excited me more, but now it's finally happening here too! With these pictures, I'll show you a short time-lapse of the construction steps. The last sequence is no longer entirely up to date, as wear and tear has since been added and the undercarriages have been installed. The generator card, a 3D print, is also running. Its surfaces still need to be properly finished.

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorFinally finished! This G-14 from Hasegawa has undergone a few enhancements. The fuselage armament is made of brass, as is the pitot tube. In the cockpit, the G-14's typical angular storage extension behind the seat has been recreated in plastic, and the antenna under the left wing has also been retrofitted. The various scoops on the engine cowling have been enlarged or completely re-drilled. I hope you like the pictures. I'm quite happy to have a late 109 in unusual colours in my collection!

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorWith these pictures, I declare the 'Almaz' project complete 🙂 In addition to showing it in dry dock, I also wanted to show the deep-sea submarine in its natural habitat. To do this, I improvised a deep-sea diorama, or rather a deep-sea photo backdrop, using leftover etched parts, a cardboard roll and some aluminium foil. Everything was to be staged in the dimly lit blackness of the depths, where more hints than concrete and clear figures would tell the story.... The submarine spotlight is my contribution with Photoshop, the rest was achieved with appropriate camera settings.
7 November, 13:54
Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorI just noticed that the images are very dark, so I've made them a little brighter. I hope this improves visibility on your screens! 🙂

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorI would like to show the submarine in two different settings: firstly, here in my 'multi-use' dry dock 🙂, and secondly, in the darkness of the deep sea.
This small, approximately 30-metre-long nuclear submarine can dive to depths of up to 1,000 metres and has gripper arms under the bow for manipulating objects on the sea floor. Exciting and a beautiful template for a few staged photos and a nice diorama!

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorWhat a story! It's fascinating to hear what an impression the Nautilus made compared to contemporary boats. Thank you for the praise and thoughts of a former submariner – I am honoured!

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorThe USS Nautilus model is now complete. I had the following idea for presenting the model: since, in my personal opinion, a submarine model on its own doesn't look like much and I want to showcase it in a way that really highlights what I like about these vehicles, so there are two presentation versions. You can see the first one here:
I have set up a dry dock that can generally serve as a backdrop for submarines and ships on a scale of 1:350. To do this, I scanned a display from Coastal Kits on a scale of 1:144, reduced it to 1:350, printed it out and cut it up so that I could build it spatially. The landscape background is designed for changing harbour architectures and can be exchanged. The rest is a photographic game with a low horizon line, exposures and colour accents. Of course, the whole thing is only an approximation of the original and is just intended to place the boat in an atmospheric setting.
A second and final presentation has now been made and is featured in a separate gallery post: 'Full speed ahead on the high seas' 🙂 The pictures can be viewed in a separate post.

Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorWow, actually, "papermates" really does exist! Very cool, I didn't know that... 🙂 However, the propeller is made of plastic, so it's a real border crosser, a model amphibious, so to speak.
Thank you for your words!

Michael KohlWow. Stunning teaser. Pitty that almost all the glow is covered now. Maybe to put some in front of the spray.
23 July, 09:29
Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorThank you very much for this motivating feedback! I must say, Michael, I felt the same way, that I actually wanted to see more of the embers. But that gave me an idea that I will implement with the next firefighting project, two AF-2 'Guardian' fire bombers: I will simply fly them over a styrofoam inferno without dropping any water – it could actually look quite good 🙂
Thanks for the suggestions, mates!

20 July, 08:36
Roland Sachsenhofer AuthorI would like to show you this Cushman 32 from the manufacturer FCM as a small, already completed side project. My second two-wheeler as a 3D printer model. FCM delivers decent quality, even if the "sprues" are sometimes in adventurous places and the layer structure of a print cannot be denied everywhere.
The small scooter, originally developed for the Paras, was widely used on airfields and stations - a useful prop for large aircraft models in 1:24!
Hardy and Hardy from Black Dog were again kind enough to pose for a size comparison.
