Ο Anthony Stobbart σας είναι ίσως γνωστός από το πολύ ωραίο επετειακό F-16C 1/48 που είχε στο ARC πριν κάμποσο καιρό...


Τώρα έχει προχωρήσει σε επετειακό Α-7 !

Σας παραθέτω link που μου έδωσε μετά από επικοινωνία μας:

Και για όσους έχετε την απορία, ο Anthony έχει και ελληνική ρίζα... Έτσι εξηγείται το πράγμα!

Anthony watch this space, your new friends may have some interesting information to add for your on going project.

Hi Yiannis, I joined as you can, nice to be around a few other Greek members, took me a few hours to figure how to work things cause everything is in Greek - you really need to get a English Translation;)

I am working slowly on my A-7, as I got tons of school work and the masking process is almost unbearable.

And for those wondering what my next project is, it is going to be the F-4E you see in my avatar. I got awesome pics from George Athanasiadis!

I'll keep you all posted!

Anthony.

Thanks guys! I'll be sure to post my work here, as I can not do so anywhere else lol.

LAMPAKIAS, I am not from Toronto, but from Mississauga - close enough.

It is probably Square One, and I have been there many times :)

And, North Star Hobbies, that is also the LHS(local hobby shop) I go to, the only one in fact, everything else is to far, but recently there prices have gotten really high so I tend to stick to online shops.

Anyways, thanks for the comments, and I will keep you all updated!

Ok guys, here is another small update, some cockpit work.















It may look a bit messy, but if not looking through a magnifier glass it looks ok.

I should mention of course that Anthony is "only" 16y old... but he is already a very skilled modeler!
His little experience is obviously covered with modelling talent, so let us imagine what his upcoming work will be in the next years!!

Well done so far Anthony! It was a very good idea to enter the club, don't you think so?

Hi guys, I have not posted for a while - school, exams and a motorcycle took up most of my time, so I have been unable to work on the A-7 for a while but now that that is all out of the way I should be able to make some more progress, so next time I post, I am hoping she will be near completion and I will be able to work on the F-4 :D

Thanks for the encouragement!

I am afraid I have some bad news...

I have messed up the paint job on th plane as well as the decals, and it has come to the point where the detail in the plastic is lost... I would try and strip the paint, but the problem is that the cockpit is still good so I am unsure what to do. I feel like just tossing it, and restarting...

On top of that, I find that I have not been able to model for a while because other interests have kept me busy.

I would really like to get back to building, maybe I can do some this weekend, but for now the A-7 is at a stalemate and I'll just work to get the other project off the bench.

Anthony.

Hi Anthony.

I think that you should not toss it away... Cover the cokcpit area, with masking tape, and spray the plane, with a kind of oven cleaning spray. Leave it in a plastic bag for approx. 24h, and then wash it with soap and toothbrush. If there is still paint on the surfaces, repeat the procedure... It will come back to its starting point, and you can start all over again without damaging the cockpit... ::icon_thumright::
