Hello Aghis, hi Tim!

Woohaa! At least someone discovered my crude pictures! 🙂 This has been my first try to upload some pictures to ScaleMates, wished I´d uploaded them to the Gallery so they wouldn´t be hidden in my photo album...

Thank you very much for your kind words, guys! I really appreciate this.

Tony,
thank you for your words! This one has really been a fun project (as long as one doesn´t try to make use of a zillion photo etched nails that come with this kit). I think I found a better and less nerve-wracking way to do the nail heads.

As Tony said, its time for them to make some in 1:35 scale! Really wonderful items, Thomas! Do you think its possible to sand down the turnmarks and polish the brass?

@ Bill:
Thank you, Sir! 🙂

@ Holger:
Should be possible to polish the brass down, but in my opinion those very faint marks add to the overall appearance. Indeed I polished the brass parts with an American product called "Blue Magic", and after cleaning them I gave them a coat of Future to prevent tarnishing. Works great so far after many years! :-D
