So, is our passion just an hobby or is it indeed a form of art? No doubt, in my opinion, that works of Master Daisuke Sakata are, in all respects, masterpieces and they can either motivate us to do our best or push us to burn our Tamiya's queens shelves!

Some modellers bust my balls and some others make my heart sing. Hiroshi Miura fall into the latter category. No rivets counter here, no bullshit to sell yet another manual telling us about blind modeller met in South America. Just a good idea, some plastic pieces and plaster to elevate to art our wonderful hobby. Thank you Hiroshi!

DEF.Model Fiat 6614 Polizia with ram wip

2018-02-06T15:05:00.002+01:00

In the third part of this wip we' ll glue the upper hull hatchs using cianoacrylate.

I am not satisfied with the rear hatch so I decide to built it with plasticard and Plastruct (90891) quarter round rod 0.8 mm.

Now we can put on the photoetchs bulletproof glass frames and the water tank filler cap.

Hotchkiss 25 mm Mle. 1934

Another walkaround this time it is about a French antitank gun that I like very much: the Hotchkiss 25 mm Mle. 1934. I took this pictures "dans Le Musée des Blindés de Saumur" last summer.

To reproduce this gun you can use the Redux kit 35005 which is basically the older Heller plastic kit with some resin parts and a photoetch sheet.

Joaquin Garcia Gazquez made a great work with the Redux kit as you can see here:

Also Blitz has this gun in his catalogue (35FS2011) but with a differrent type of wheel rim:

Have a great modelling time and enjoy my walkaround!

I have found this FLAK 30, probably the only one preserved in Italy, at the Museo Storico Militare delle "Alpi Giulie" in Tarvisio (UD) Cave del Predil.

"Allied Raid!" on Fine Scale Modeler web site!

Thanks to Mark Hembree Fine Scale Modeler Magazine' s editor a little article about my vignette "Allied Raid!" is now on http://finescale.com web site: enjoy it and use the attached file to realize your own Speisetafel blackboard!

Super Sculpey

2016-02-10T21:21:00.000+01:00

Il figurino che sto realizzando per l'amico Thomas è un mix di vari pezzi che sto assemblando servendomi della pasta modellante Super Sculpey un prodotto che, una volta steso, si indurisce con una cottura in forno a 130 °C. per 15 minuti circa. A questa temperatura la resina non fonde per cui questo prodotto è perfetto per realizzare modifiche e correggere errori sui nostri modelli.

L'ambientazione che sto realizzando rappresenta un piccolo tratto di filo spinato che farà da sfondo all'Asso dell' Aviazione Italiana Francesco Baracca mentre mostra orgoglioso il timone di un Hansa-Brandenburg che ha appena abbattuto: 21 delle sue 34 vittorie aeree sono state riportate contro questo tipo di velivolo!

This figure I am realizing is a mix of resin pieces and Super Sculpey, an oven-bake clay you can use to modify and fix your resin kits. This sculping compound bake at 275 °F: at this temperature resin does not melt.
In this vignette the Italian WW1 Ace Francesco Baracca proudly show the tail of an Hansa-Brandenburg he has just shot down (21 of his 34 victories were against this type of aircraft)!

Allied raid!

L' umorismo è una delle cose più difficili da inserire in un diorama perchè ognuno di noi possiede un differente senso dell' umorismo. Ma quando tra i commenti a questa vignetta postata sul sito Missing-lynx.com ho letto le entusiastiche parole di Jerry: "Hahahahaha!!!! Very cool!! Nice morning gift" ho realizzato di aver raggiunto il mio scopo!

E poi, guardando questo ritratto, dobbiamo proprio riconoscere che:

"Ci sono più cose

in cielo e in terra, Orazio, di quante ne sogni

la tua filosofia" (Amleto, Shakespeare)

Humor is the most difficult thing to put in a diorama because every one has a different sense of commedy so, when among the comments to my vignette posted on Missing-Lynx.com web-site I read the enthusiastc words of Jerry: "Hahahahaha!!!! Very cool!! Nice morning gift" I have realized to have achieved my aim!

Eventually, looking at this portrait it is true that:

"There are more things

in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of

in your philosophy" (Hamlet, Shakespeare)
