Building a 1/8th Vintage Volks Urd, Part 1

This original vintage Volks resin kit was gifted to me by a member of my club, who purchased it in Japan in the 90s. I had no idea who or what an "Urd" was. I knew Volks, I had some of their other "Orient Hero Series" kits and they were all very well done.
このオリジナルのヴィンテージなボークス製レジンキットは、90年代に日本で購入したというクラブのメンバーから譲り受けたものです。当時の私は、「ウルド」が何者なのか、あるいは何なのか全く知りませんでした。ボークスというメーカーのことは知っており、同社の「オリエントヒーローシリーズ」のキットをいくつか持っていましたが、それらはどれも非常に出来の良いものでした。

Here is the "skeleton" build up from the modeler's guide. Thus inspired, I decided I would also build a "skeleton" model. This served as invaluable reference.

Building Zoukei-Mura's 1/32 Bf-109 G4: Part 2

 

This aircraft is being built as a skeleton model. This means the main spar under the pilot's seat will be the only connection between the fuselage and wings. The builder of the skeleton model in the book mentioned that this makes the model a bit wobbly. I have decided to use either wood or brass as an additional support between the wings and main spar. This pic shows my initial thinking process on how to solve this.

Most excellent box art! The kit comes with fuselage and wing
interior parts and I will be building it with much of the outer
skin removed to show all the interior details.

Pennsylvania Railroad MO Tower, LASERkit, HO Scale, Part 1

This is the second of two kits I had agreed to build a long time ago. So let's get started. It's from the same maker as the 50,000 gallon water tank, American Model Builders, which sadly went defunct earlier this year.

Nice presentation. I built the water tower first, because I thought it would be easier. Ha!
