Thanks guys!

 

Bill, yes I did................treat some of the foil. Really just a few panels in certain spots, as the bleach/lead/copper (in this case just bleach/lead w/no copper) mix does make the foil stand out quite a bit and doesnt look right for every part of the plane..............

 

Basically it was used on parts of the engine nacelles in a few spots:

You can see the panels a little better in this one, as to how far back the bleach/lead panels go back:

After burnishing, the panels were knocked back a bit with some XXX steal wool

Very well done.

This kit -with the same markings- is in my bucket list.

Kit and decals are already purchased.

 

Thanks for the kind words Tolga. The decals went down very well actually for being such large ones, especially the nose decal. 

 

 

 

It's good to see this again...

 

AMAZING workmanship Buddy.

 

:thumbsup:

 

 

Thanks Maru! 

 

 

 

 

Are you kidding me?  Good God man - what an incredible scale model.  Just gave me a good dose of humility.  Love the B-25.

 

Haha, thanks Jay. Its one of those things that when you see something every day, you almost tend to look past it, you see it so often. Of course being the builder, I normally only see the flaws, but in the end I still like the way it turned for for sure.
