Hi!
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, November 1, 2003 11:07 AM
Steve Prokai here. Just joined. Been modelling for a few years, but still an amateur. Here are some pictures of recent models: http://www.prokai.com/photos/ScaleModelPlanes/index.html

Any feedback appreciated.

Currently working on the Tamiya Silver Edition P-51. Next in line is Hasegawa's F-18D Hornet Night Attack.

Cheers,

Steve

Welcome Steve, Impressive work. I think the Bf-109 is my favorite. See you around the A/C forum.

Wow! Thanks for all of the replies. And many thanks for the kind words on my models. I just destroyed a Tamiya P-51! Very disappointing to spend so many hours to realize that it just ain't working out. Oh well, I have a new test model! On to the Hasegawa F-18 Night Attack.

Cheers.

Steve

When I see the level that many of the modelers here are at, I have to consider myself an amateur. While I always try my best to do a good job there are still a lot of techniques that I do not know.

My airbrushing technique is really very poor, but earlier this year I invested in some good equipment (Paasche VL and compressor) and results are gettng better. I still have major problems with some of the most elemental airbrushing aspects.

And I just discovered the 3rd party enhancement kits that are available. Holy crap! some of the kits are just insane.

Anyway, I feel it'll be a while before I get to level of some of the folks here.

Cheers,

Steve
