PIKO: Precision Scale

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2014/02/precision-scale.html

Duminică, 9 februarie 2014. Even though I've revisited the earth formula here. I never really managed to make a true "formula" - one that could be replicated time after time, using precise measurement. As a result the various earth patches done so far on the layout vary in various degrees. Since I've been having a hard time matching colors with different batches lately, I've decided it's time to take things further and bought a precision scale. Abonați-vă la: Postare comentarii (Atom).

PIKO: More "Earth" Boards

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2014/09/more-earth-boards.html

Sâmbătă, 27 septembrie 2014. In the end, 3 boards, each containing 8 squares, were built to get a sense of the resulting color during the tests described here. However applying it in just one coat resulted in a color more similar to a 2.8% square. So doing a little math, we'll first consider C. The existing's formula weight, X. The weight of blue pigment that needs to be added to get to the desired p. Abonați-vă la: Postare comentarii (Atom). Lista mea de bloguri. George Dent Model Maker.

PIKO: martie 2013

Duminică, 31 martie 2013. Bricks on the Artitec Building. After carefully masking one side of the building, so that only the brick parts were visible, paint was prepared:. 0,6 ml XF-7 (Tamiya Flat Red). 0,1 ml XF-64 (Tamiya Red Brown). 0,7 ml X-20A (Tamiya Thinner). Even if the mortar might not be removed 100% from the bricks themselves, not to worry, since the Artitec guys seem to be having a similar finish on their product cover. Duminică, 24 martie 2013.

PIKO: mai 2013

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Duminică, 12 mai 2013. I finally got everything assembled. Some UHU super-glue was used the most, with some Bison special formula to get the roof attached. For the lamp, Tamiya Cockpit Green (XF71) was used as Artitec's LGN specification, while the door was airbrushed with Tamiya Red Brown (XF64), followed by a drybrush with concrete. Both items had Tamiya Flat White (XF2) applied where needed. For the 2 pipes belonging to the roof, the same gray used at the end of this previous article. Later edit] This...

PIKO: Electrical Modifications For Phidget 1012

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2014/12/electrical-modifications-for-phidget.html

Duminică, 7 decembrie 2014. Electrical Modifications For Phidget 1012. Initially I had trouble understanding how this works, simply because both DC and AC notions apparently got together in the same figure. However the "brown" (BN) is a simple connection, there's no alternative current flowing through this diagram. It's simply that one can choose his arbitrary ground for the direct current.

PIKO: More Electrics

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2014/07/realized-at-one-point-that-since-theres.html

Duminică, 20 iulie 2014. Work was done to the electrical panel that will contain all the modules (Viessmann, Phidget, etc.) so I can finally move away from the wiring-in-a-box approach.

PIKO: martie 2014

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Duminică, 9 martie 2014. Precision Earth Test Patches. After adding the determined weight of blue ultramarine dry pigment - usually around 0.04 grams - the whole formula would be thoroughly mixed in a "shaker" for 4 minutes, as to ensure a uniform outcome (the days when I would use a spoon to mix things are long since gone - since applying the resulting mix resulted in particles of the stronger pigment - then black - "shining" through the whole formula).

PIKO: iulie 2013

http://piko-modellbahnen.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html

Sâmbătă, 27 iulie 2013. Over the time, I've been compiling quite a list of small notes, consisting of small hints and some activities that should eventually make it to the plans for each section of the model railway. Since every time I run into the pile I keep reading the same things - I've decided it's time to put the hints somewhere, and the activities to their respective plans. Hints are centralized below. 5) The Noch glue, used for the static grass, is diluted 1:2 glue to water, so the there's no vis...
