Pawel

Hello everybody,

It's a first time that I post a new thread on Aircraft, so first a little introduction: My name is Pawel Mroczkowski, I live in Poland and like some people from other forums know I specialize im models of US equipment from the Vietnam War. Some time ago I completed a 1:72 Hasegawa Skyraider. At last I photographed it and wrote a build report. For details please check my web page:

And here are some fotos for the impatient:

I hope you all liked it and look forward to your comments. Using this opportunity I would also like to wish merry christmas and a happy new year for everybody

Pawel

Nicely done Pawell .  Good job on the SEA camo.

Regards,  Rick

Nice work, Pawel!

Very nice Pawel.  I like the exhaust staining.

Rick, John & John - Thanks a lot for Your comments.

In case it might help somebody, I painted the exhaust stains with an airbrush, and then, while the paint (humbrol) was still fresh I took a fine brush, dipped it in solvent and painted the vertical runs.

Thanks for checking my post, looking forward to more comments, have a nice day

Pawel

Looks like she's ready for take off!!!  I really like the way you finished her up!  I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Nice work Pawel.

I also airbrushed my exhaust stains but did not use a paint brush. It was all freehand airbrushed.

Here is a picture of mine that I did several years back:

Nice Pawel.  .

Job well done. Beautifully weathered.

scorpr2, MikeV, wing_nut, leadsled - thanks a lot for your kind words, they make me try harder on the next build!

MikeV - nice VNAF bird, what scale and make is it?

Any more Skyraider fans out there? Have a nice day

Pawel

Great job! Hope you'll post some more of your work please!

And a Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Hello Gamera,

I hope you'll enjoy, have a nice Christmas time

Very nice Pawel. I love the weathering. I'm a fan of CAS aircraft such as the A-1.  Love the OV-10 as well.

You did very well with your rendering of an SEA theater Skyraider!  Camo is especially nice.

Medicman - thanks for the comment and thanks for looking on the web page, glad you liked it.

Daywalker - thanks a lot. I thought there were just not enough of them in 1:72

Have a nice day

Pawel
