Christoph1972 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 Painted wheel nuts are quite important for a impressive appearance, very nice! There is a ghost to see in your cabinet! Scary....... Kind regards Christoph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 A big improvement over the standard model Paul, they look very well. I think the problem with aerials is that they need to be so thin to look in scale with the model, a real aerial is probably less than 10mm in width, scaled down 32 times and you are getting to something a hairs width to be in proportion.

Ferret90 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) They certainly look a lot more realistic paul, it's amazing what a difference a few small details make such an improvement as for aerials, I use the plastic bristles off a broom as you can split them down the centre to get them as then as you want. However , the broom is becoming less effective haha Edited November 2, 2019 by Ferret90 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christoph1972 Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I like the aerials! I use resistances as aerials, they are cheap and I like the appearance too. The silver one is a resistance, the black one from frammoldels.nl 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
