3phase Red Jammer help - 3phase - 07-28-2013

OK I’m getting thru my build and was wondering if I can get some help. First I am missing a few parts but if I can not get them I am OK with it as I have had this kit for a while now and should have checked it when I first got it.

Also i am about to order the TEE strip so if any one in Australia has them for sale or needs anything from Plastruct let me know.

Also i would like to purchase the BF109 guns if someone has any and a R5 droid as i intend to leave the jammer dome section removable and have a droid section as well (if you know what i mean|)

The missing or incorrect parts are.

The blury part

Next part i was given 2 the same but 1 of them should have more to it on the end.
Here is my build

The first photo is from the Airfix Hurricane. Rodolfo (Rodmart) made a pretty sweet R5 unit for his X-wing kit, you might try contacting him for that.
I can send you the Kettenkrad part if you'd like.

Mate thanks for the offer but i dont think i will get the other parts so might as well go with what i got, and thanks i will try Rodmart for a R5.

3phase,
It's cool of you to take the responsibility because you didn't check the parts when you bought the kit. However, most GK makers are helpful when it comes to replacing parts. I know the ones I have dealt with, at least. I would give the kit maker a try to get correct parts. I haven't dug into my Kettenkrad in a while but I don't remember any of the tracks looking like the resin ones you have. Give it a shot, man.

EDIT: I forgot that there are tracks like that on the wings!

Yes i know what you mean but i dont want to pester them. Any way i PM'd you way back about the BT44B body but no reply. Did you get the part or my PM.

RE: 3phase Red Jammer help - joewhite - 08-03-2013

I understand. And about that PM....I just replied. I totally forgot, man!

Ok back on this been a long time. Pic of trying to keep stuff down while the glue sets. I really need to get that wonder spray I have seen on Captain cardboards build video of his X-Wing where he glues a part then sprays it with something and sets the glue instantly. Kicker I think he called it.
One of my girls came out and seen the red hair band and said there for school dad I'm telling mum.

You'll be in the shit now..lol

That kicker is great stuff, I normally just apply some with a toothpick rather than spraying. You must get some and try it out. :-)

RE: 3phase Red Jammer help - 3phase - 06-06-2016

Ok should show where im up to on this. Primer done and most pipes ready. Just waiting for a bit of time and weather to start final painting. Also shown that I can replace out between the original guns and the new guns (new guns not shown)

Stunning work. You are really getting that sloppy wash effect to a tee.
Japanese Chronicles ref maybe? Looks very, very nice.

Thanks mate. I did start out trying to be accurate to the model. With the colours anyway but I then just started freelancing the weathering otherwise I'd start tearing my hair out.
