What an excellent build! You did so well with the kits and the diorama is so characterful and dynamic. This was a real pleasure to watch and thank you for your kind words.

Got my kits and the thing I was worried about was the painting but the video shows it can be done and yours look great. As for the diorama, that looks spot on. Has a real atmosphere to it. 1/144 is great for those with limited space. You can get bigger kits for the same price as these but sometimes space is more valuable.

for masking the camo, i wouldve put some thick lines on the color diagram with a soft pencil then pressed the tamiya sheet onto it pretty hard transfering the lines across, then just cut them up and put em on like decal stickers

They are beautiful little kits. You've made a very nice job of the diorama. Franz Von Werra was held in a POW camp - and tried to steal an aircraft - in the general area where I grew up, I heard his story as a kid. It's a shame he was killed in a ditching at sea after all that.

Thanks, MN. Great job on both the kits and the diorama. A very evocative scene....the placement of the planes certainly give the impression of chase and the desperation of the chased to escape. All kudos to you for not only attempting such a small scale but sharing it on YT......it will inspire others to give it a go for sure.

A great diorama and the kits produce nice models. I think you captured the sea very well. The only thing is the static prop blades. i have experimented with discs of thin clear plastic and airbrushing fuzzy prop blades onto the disc then finally putting a thin wash on the disc whilst rotating the disc. Rather like creating a windscreen wiper pattern effect.

Thanks Allan. Yes, I was just thinking about the disc propeller effect yesterday as I will need it for a future project. I'll have to give that a go.

I must agree with Allan. You have put a lot time and modelling skill into this dio. So please go the extra step and blurr those rounds of clear plastic. I am almost finished my REVELL Spitsfires and a Messa Schnitzel 109 (Deals Wheels) cartoon aircraft and flight is necessary..............cheers

Well, you took a damn good whack at it didn't you? Are the cliffs around Dover? I was under the impression they were chalk white. Super feat being 1/144 scale. Nice work on the water also. This is just my preference but, I would have snipped the props off.
@ModelNerd

Thanks Daniel. Yes, the cliffs are white but the weather in England is always so rubbish that they look grey :D I think you're right about spinning propellers - I am investigating this as an option for a future build.

What an excellent diorama, I really love those Beacon models too. You've certainly done them justice! I stumbled across your channel and I'm loving what I've watched so far :) I'm the opposite to you though, I find it much easier painting the smaller scales (1/144, 1/72) opposed to the bigger stuff. Anyway, if you get a chance check out one of my 1/144 builds and let me know what you think :D subscribed!
