Modeling guide

Coffee, thinking and work - a workflow as described by Piotr Słomiński

About his own tricks for photoetched parts, tried tools, specifics that are worth having in your workshop and about model building in general we talked to Piotr "Słoma" Słomiński, an experienced and award-winning modeller, author of reviews and step by step articles on model building, member of the Cracow’s modelling Group B.

Exito great test of decal setting solutions - part II - extreme surfaces.

Before you is the second part of our great test of decal setting solutions! 

For this part, we have prepared a special plate with irregularities that will make placing decals over them a very difficult task - if not impossible for getting 100% perfect. We will apply decals over them, then soak with decal solutions and... we'll see what happens!

So make yourself comfortable and have a pleasant read!

This is how our PZL p.11c is presented in its full glory, made by Piotr Slominski from the Arma Hobby kit.

And, we might add, only minimally enhanced with additional details! In our opinion it looks great, but see for yourself by looking at the photos!

In this installment of our blog there is something for fans of Polish aviation!

Piotr Słomiński, a well known and respected modeller, has agreed to make for us the icon and pride of our aviation - the PZL P.11c in 1/48 scale from Arma Hobby.

What techniques he used and how the build itself went - you will find out in this article!

And after reading, be sure to see the gallery of the finished model!

Before you is a large and detailed test of qdecal setting solutions!! We have tested eight of the most popular products on a three types of vastly different decal types!

In the first part we focus on applying and softening decals on a typical model kit surface and details so you can get an easy reference point for you own work.
