Thunderhawk setback

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Unfortunately my thunderhawk crashed! All wingparts have broken off. I will need to re glue them. I think i will be magnetizing all wings and the tail section. This is the last picture of the thunderhawk when it was in one piece. IMG_3480

Thunderhawk

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

I have started with the construction of a Space Marine thunderhawk. In these pictures you can see the work on the front prow. I will be adding comments and pictures as work progresses. I have stated work on the cockpit. I used bits of a landspeeder to use as seats. The marines will be added later. The entire model will be made from plastic card with exception of the engines.

I have closed up the front of the hull. I now need to paint the interior of the cockpit. I have started with the external plates to give extra detail to the machine. I am using old “extra armor” upgrades to create the side doors.

I have started detailing the outside. Using toothpicks for a grid. I have made the dark angels chapter symbol to stick to the front.

Meerdere projecten

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

                               Meerdere projecten tegelijkertijd heb ik u draaien. Buiten het schilderen van 5 Deathwing squads, ben ik ook bezig met de lightning en de titan. Ik probeer de Deathwing voor 13 December af te krijgen, en de titan moet 22 November klaar zijn. Druk druk druk. dus. Tevens ben ik begonnen met een nieuwe scratch build. Ik probeer een thunderhawk te bouwen. Ik heb via www.kunstofshop.nl voldoende Polystyreen (plastic card) gekocht om het model 3 maal te bouwen. Ik ben nu alle onderdelen aan het uitknippen om de hoofdcabine te maken. Foto’s komen vanzelf op de site.

Lightning Exhaust

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

image_507image_506In my last post i mentioned making round engines. That failed. I have made square ones instead.

I have altered the lightning a little, and i have added 2 exhausts. The picture are very bad quality.  The exhaust i have added are made from ” lasdoppen” i do not know the English term for it, but the components are normally used to connect electrical wires. They needed a little work to fit but they look pretty good. I also added an autocannon. I think i will start painting it soon.
