LSP_Kevin Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 That looks fantastic. All that masking must have driven you insane! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant_T Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 (edited) Sunday evening here, so time to quit for the weekend. I did the touch ups and some detail painting, and then sealed it. Next up are the decals and the weathering. I'm working on lots of additional bits and pieces on the side too.

Dragon Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Wow, looking fantastic! Great job on the painting. How much weathering are you planning? Looks like it has a bit already. The decals will really enhance it, looking forward to the finish build. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Paint work looks great! Looks like that may have been a wee bit of a pricy mask job with all that Tamiya tape! I love their kabuki tape, but usually try to supliment/augment it with some plastic wrap, or glossy moisture resistant magazine paper for masking purposes so as not to have to use quite so much Tamiya tape. Looking forward to more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant_T Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 Decals on. All did not go to plan as the decals I intended to use were awful. Plan B is that this is now a generic/fictional aircraft.

Tomcatfreak Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Nice build! Which colors did you use? Mr. Paint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant_T Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 Not a huge amount of time in the last week or so, but this weekend I got a chance to give the top a wash to tone down the colours and bring out the panel lines. I'm in San Diego for he next week for a conference (including a visit to the Midway hopefully) so no more progress for a while.

Grant_T Posted April 3, 2018 Author Share Posted April 3, 2018 Thanks for the comments guys. I'm back from my trip so I spent a few hours weathering the underside. Some detail painting needed here too. Dany Boy, TorbenD, mark31 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
