1/32 Revell LS-8 sailplane

Post by BorgR3mc0 »

I haven’t done a lot of modelling lately. But during a holiday in France I finished the LS-8.

I used a ordinary “dollar” store spray paint and an oil wash for some highlights.

Very nice! I bet if you added a spar thru that wing you could even glide it for real!

That is really a beautiful sailplane Borg!
A nice subject all in all!

The paintwork seems to have succeeded excellently!

And, nice to have you back, een echt warme welkom terug!

Now there's something you don't see too often. Well done!

One of my dreams is to fly in one as a passenger; as well as a helicopter, hot air balloon, fighter jet (yeah right), C-47 Skytrain, bungee jumping, parachute out of an aircraft.....

Borg, I'm glad to see you posting again. This is one beautiful bird! I commend you on such excellence, especially with a dollar store can of spray paint!
