Static Scale Models

Hi Everyone,

I know this is a RC forum, but I was just wondering if there are any Static Scale modellers here. Maybe there are some who do both (what I aspire to be doing). Or maybe someone knows who does it.

Anwar, hopefully we can have a common ground here with this breed of modellers as well....

Re: Static Scale Models

Hi! I am heavily into Plastic kit static models. Preferred scales 1:72, 1:48 and a few 1:144. Combat aircraft with a focus on World War 2. Some tanks and ships. My collection comprises more than 100 models.

Cheers!

VC

Re: Static Scale Models

Oh cool... Clap

I am keen to get into it. Shall appreciate your guidance a lot. Actually I am about to order the kits online. Are there LHS who supply kits? What about auxilliaries like paints etc?

Re: Static Scale Models

There are many Toy Shops who have Academy / Airfix Kits. Look around for them. I know for certain that they are available in New Del/Kolkata. Paints are best imported from abroad though they are also available locally. I can give you phone numbers if you are interested. Best of luck! Thumbs Up

Let me know if there is any way that I can help you. PM me.

Re: Static Scale Models

Goaded by the encouraging responses ....Me 110 in 1: 144 scale, this model is only about 3 inches in length. Note the hand painted canopy framing, camouflage pattern created using a cut off stippling brush.

Re: Static Scale Models

Hi VC

it is amazing to see a part of your meticulous Century. I hope that all the kits you have built are of different aircrafts. You can open a museum in your town and I am sure it will be a great attraction for everyone. It will be good to learn history about airplanes if you can get a place and document detail of each plane in an organzed manner. I am sure that if you start this project, many more people will join you as you add more aircraft to your squadron.

Re: Static Scale Models

Dreamliner, someday, when my hands are not steady any longer and the eyesight dims - I plan to donate all my models to a museum. Hopefully, that is not in the near future. Right now, I am still building furiously!

Vinay, all the models are hand built by me and then hand painted. I have been pursuing this hobby since 1976.

Cheers!

VC

Re: Static Scale Models

VC,
I dabbled into this aspect of the hobby (the plastic static kits) and had quite a collection, but over a period of time the models were either donated, gifted, or I was cajoled to part with them. Then like two kids happened and before you knew all those were in bits and pieces.
However after going through your efforts, I can say mine were no way even near to your efforts.
keep up the good work mate!

Re: Static Scale Models

Sushil, grateful for your appreciation. What gives the most pleasure in this kind of modelling, is the scope of detailing. My next set of photos will highlight some of the details that I have incorporated in my models. Today I am missing my collection a lot, as I am in Guwahati and they are all in Kolkata. I didn't dare transport them for fear of damage.

Cheers!

VC
