WIP Wednesday - Saab Viggen

 Saab Viggen WIP

Another aircraft for my Swedish army, a Saab Viggen from Airfix again straight out of the box. A simple build with very few fitting problems (body and wings needed clamping) we shall see how the decals hold up when I paint it in late April.

Terrain Tuesday Medieval tavern

 Medieval Tavern 

Addition to my medieval building collection. A tavern style building. I have again added construction plaster to fill in between the colombage then stippled it with a toothbrush. Then painted it with an ox blood colour as per some buildings in Vitré. The tiles were painted to represent stone slate tiles then given various washes.  Quite happy with the result. 






Cheers

 Ww1 Artilleryman 

A bit of a change this week, a large scale figure to add to the display cabinet. Not sure of the maker, but a nicely proportioned miniature.

Sopwith Triplane

 Sopwith Triplane 

An addition to my Canvas eagles collection, a Revell 1/72 scale miniature. A reasonably simple build out of the box. Airbrushed first then a wash, followed by a brush highlight to achieve the painted canvas dragged painted, decals were a little old, and were a little difficult with the red circle being separate.  





Cheers
