Moson Show 2012 Figures
Moson Show in Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary. Figure class.
First post with images from the Moson Show in Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary. A lot of the images unfortinarlly came out blurry so I will only post the good ones. But lets start with the diorama and vignette classes.
Just got back home from Moson Show in Mosonmagyaróvár, Hungary. Incredible show with amazing artistic quality in all model categories. Lots of great shopping, good friends, yummy food and beer.
I managed to grab a gold in what seemed to appear the biggest class on the show. 1/35 tracked armored vehicles. My guess is that over 100 models had entered in the class.
Lots of pictures were taken by me during the weekend and will soon post them here.
Thanks to everyone I met and traveled with. Hope to see you next year!
I can finally show the progress on my first ever Diorama build. It represents a retreating Soviet KV-2 tank stuck on a railway trestle bridge during October 1941. Supposedly attacked by a dive bomber such as a German Stuka, the Crew managed to escape the tank in time. But when they get back they see that the Stuka kinda missed the tank but still managed to destroy the bridge and disable the KV. Therefor the title “No Way Home”
This is the Dragon OT-34/76 built with some extras from Voyager and Aber. I built this as a quick project to try out some new painting ideas I have. The tracks are just temporary fitted here.
Just a quick something something I did in Photoshop using my M4A2 Sherman.
Just a quick teaser of what’s brewing. The King Cobra M4A3E2 Jumbo based on the model from Tasca. More updates on this build very soon.
C4-Open is Scandinavia biggest modeling competition. It was held during the last weekend of October in Technic & Seafarer’s House in Malmö. This was my first time visiting and boy what a show! Amazing models, a lot of re-sellers and great people. I made a lot of new friends and also had the pleasure of meeting some well known people. To my big surprise the competition was extremely successful for my part and received some very nice awards.
The awards was:
German char B1-bis
ISU-152
Hope to meet everyone again next year!
This is my Guam Sherman M4A2 that I finished a couple of weeks ago. It’s the Dragon Tarawa M4A2 kit with wading stacks from Tank-Workshop and hand crafted stowage. The wading stacks were not prototypical so I had to modify them to match the real prototype. To be correct the wading stacks were welded flush on the hull instead of being separated from the tank.
The idea with this model was to try and heavily layer different oils to create variation in the base color. I believe that not much of show through the weathering dough but I will definitely try and take it even further next time.
I had a lot of problem with the snow camouflage on this model. I used the hairspray technique and the color would not loosen up. I was ready to shelf the model but a tip from Sven Young to use MicroSol saved the day! Thank you again!
If you want to read more about the hairspray technique, i recommend visiting this thread: http://www.migproductionsforums.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3293&hilit=hairspray
The camouflage also received some heavy “mapping” with white Humbrol enamel. Explained here.
