Now where have I seen that idea before???

Oh yeah...

LOL.


Meanwhile on the bench... There are some very delicious sweets called "Toffiffee" here, and theyre very useful for modelers (1. - delicious sweets - 2. the inlays are very good mixed pallets).

The smaller hemispherical shapes give perfect fly eyes for that scale btw. YAY!




Then... mission "Swiss cheese" followed - those holes are supposed to be the ones for the "hair" (=wire) transplantation. And those are MANY!

I cant tell how it will turn out - but its real fun to build - if you have some fun too, its even better.

Man, you come up with some stuff, that I would never dream of! Way outside my thought process! But I do love it! I am impressed by your imagination and creativity.

Well... Thats a pretty simple one to be honest - just take a look at the other participants (Schneider Trophy Shuttle is my favourite!).

BTT:

The fly has legs:






and I made some mess with trasparent MrHobby and Tamiya colors - just to check how the metallic effect will be like on the "fur":

Interesting. I wonder if something like this would work here?
I checked the site, some interesting stuff. I see one person was turning the space shuttle into an ice-cream...
