Hangar Queen 10 Campaign

Welcome to the Official Hangar Queen 10 Campaign on the new KitMaker/Aeroscale forums! This campaign will run until December 31, 2020. Post your campaign related discussion and pictures here. It’s been a great campaign so far!

I’ll jump in, though not real sure I’m doing it right. I added content on the old sidte, let’s see how it goes here!

My Carmel colored Zero!

Ummm, ok, gotta read some more…

It’s really pretty simple to post a photo here. Go to the icon at the top of the box where you’re typing your message. It’s about it the middle and kind of looks like a picture. When you hover on it, it says “Upload”. Click on that and it will lead you through a short process to upload a picture directly from your hard drive. No image hosting site necessary any more!

sorry let my temper out…

Here is my entry. 1/72 Airfix Hotspur glider. I had entered this in the “Learning to Fly” campaign, so now I will post it here. I will post future photos here. See my post Hotspur Glider for previous photos.

Comparison between the Airfix canopy and a Falcon Clear Vax canopy. The lower is the Airfix.

Wow, had to go hunting, I finished my first hanger queen this year back in May.

I’ve got a Macross VF-0S that I started like 10 years ago. Cockpit is done and masked off (I’m sure the tape is still good!) and I did a white primer coat and some panel line inking so not too far off to finishing. Not much time left in the campaign but I’m very motivated to get this one done!

Had to sand own some of the old poorly done paint coat. Resprayed the base and did pre shading.

And the base colors blocked out over the preshading.

Decals on as well.

Just have to do a gloss coat and panel lines / weathering.

These old kits have no cockpit detail, so I added some. There is little information on these gliders, and I had just a few photos to go by. Rather than a scale, nut, and bolts reproduction, I was looking for a representation of the interior. The Falcon vacuum formed canopy turned out so nice, I wanted some thing to look at!

Complete! Now on to the Martin B-10.

I thought I posted my build on the original thread but again guess not, and only joined.

Anyway here is my entry BF 109 Tamiya Swiss in Christmas colors.

Looks like a nice kit, but it doesn’t look like a Hangar Queen as it seems to be unstarted. Are you sure this is where you wanted to post this?

Michael :stuck_out_tongue:

I will just drop it out as it was not started until around Thanksgiving anyway.

Finally finished! The hardest part was the decals had gotten old and were extremely brittle, but I managed to massage most of them successfully into place.

Hi all,

Bill, I really like how the glider turned out! Been watching since the Learning to Fly campaign. Well done!

Mark, nice finish on two this year!

Btwosan, I always enjoyed that anime.

I know I uploaded my Zero on the old site, but don’t see it here.

And this side!

I too was able to finish two this year, here’s the quick and dirty shots of the second P-47 from the “SOSIG”. Westfall’s Animosa II. Which in reality was Animosa III.

Happy New Year!
