Thanks for the info Missileman. I have drugstore glasses 2x, 2.5, 3, 3.5. I have an optivisor with extra lenses. Also have the round bright light with the magnifying glass in the middle. Have a couple of pair of "extra hands" to hold pieces while working on them and several sets of blocks that I arrange on the bench to rest my hands on when working. One of my neighbors came over and when he looked at the bench and saw all the glasses he wanted to know if I was making and selling eyeglasses. I'll still try the small models if I see one that I really like and want to build.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.

Okay, I have to ask you. How much weight did that wee airplane gain with the paints on it? Because even with a few Micro-grams more it would still be beautiful at any size!! Very good work for such a wee little Birdy that lands on water. Luv it!!
fox Outstanding build! I can't even attempt that scale any more. Have moved up from 1/72 to 1/48. Might even have to go to 1/32 but then I'd need a bigger house. Jim Stay Safe.

You would be surprised how large a big airliner (think 787) or large bomber is in 1:144. And resist thoughts of only going to a larger scale. I was thinking that when my hands got tremors, but I do believe in the old saying, use it or lose it. I was afraid that would make things worse. I have a bright LED positional light at the bench, and dollar store readers up to 2.5 diopters. I like cheap ones because even with the best intentions I end up getting CA, paint and other crud on them. I have learned a few tricks for stabilizing my hands, like a block of wood to rest the bases of my thumbs together when doing fine work- not perfect but it makes a great improvement. I am slower than I used to be, but can still use it.
VERY IMPRESSIVE!
Hello!
Given how small this baby is and how you had to really squeeze your macro, I'm amazed how impeccably clean this build is!
Thanks for sharing and have a nice day

Great! Cute.
Reminds me of the Acroduster biplane I built in 1:72- I think your model is even smaller.
WOW Talk about small. It looks great tho. I like it.
Wow Marco! Great looking build. That is a tiny little bird - not sure I could build that little guy in that scale. Nicely done, and great pics.
Thanks,
Here are a few photos of the latest model to leave my scale modelling bench! It is a realy small UT-1 floatplane, built using Mikro-Mir's kit and "home made" details. It was painted using Vallejo acrylics and Ammo washes and oil paints.
I had a mishap with the float structs, but I am somewhat happy with the look of the engine and the propeller.
Cheers
