OK… so the first proper addition to the Noisy Models blog! The site’s kicking off with a model build – Eduard’s new 1:48 Zero! It’s really exciting to be in the lucky position of getting to participate in a joint-build of a pre-release sample of the new “Tora! Tora! Tora!” boxing. I’ll be sharing progress here and on Aeroscale – and it will be my first build after months concentrating on the guitar, so apologies in advance if I’m a bit rusty!

Rowan,
Looking forward to your 1st modeling efforts in some time. But it’s like riding a bike, once you learn how, you never really forget.

Hi again Joel
Well, I’m underway – but definitely feeling a bit rusty! I have to think twice about stuff I’d have done instinctively when I was spending more time at the workbench.
I’m aiming for a full(-ish) day spent on the Zero tomorrow – which should see the interior reach the point where I can start to throw some paint at it. Then there’ll be a few crazy days running my Oxfam shop in the run-up to Christmas so, realistically, I should have something to show for my efforts next week.
All the best
Rowan
Hi Rowan,
Looking forward to your take on the Zero.
Andy 🙂
Rowan,
With your Zero build finally started, pictures won’t be far behind with your 1st update. As I’ve posted before, I tried to post a model picture but drag & drop as well as pasting didn’t work for me. Just how does one post pictures here?

Rowan,
Testing pasting an active link to my BMW M4 GTE build to see if it does work.

Hi Joel
Great – the link works fine! 🙂

Rowan,
Trying to paste a picture:
Copy and paste doesn’t work
Drop and drag:
Doesn’t work either

Hi Joel
It looks like I can insert images. That’s progress at least! 🙂
Nice job on the wing!
All the best

Rowan,
This is using the Direct html code from Image shack.

Rowan,
Only the link shows but it’s active. I’ll try the other HTML code and hopefully that will work.

Rowan,
Looks like I can’t post any pictures from Image Shack nor my computer.

Hi Joel
Try using this HTML code: (less than symbol)img src=””/(greater than symbol)
Past the image url between the inverted commas.
Adding it woke up your pic. 🙂
All the best
Rowan
Rowan,
Been a long time since I used that code
joel
Rowan,
Here’s it goes
Doesn’t seem to work for me. I’m trying it one last time.
Test:
Hi Joel
I tried as “Rocket” and it looks like the code was stripped away. I’ll try again now “Rocket”‘s approved as a poster, but I expect the result will be the same.
All the best
Rowan
The code definitely works as Noisy Models…
Now trying as “Rocket”:
Yep – as I feared, it’s the same as before.
Sorry. I may be able to add that functionality further down the line. It would be very handy for people to be able to post reference pics etc. in the Blogs, but (for now, at least) it looks like links to pics will have to do.
All the best
Rowan
