This kit is a doozy to build. :-(

Gents: This is my next project. Does anyone have a copy of the instructions that could scanned and emailed to me? I'll gladly pay. Thanks. George

Hi Mike, Thanks. I thinking of Mr. Color C12. I'll wait until AK Interactive releases its airbrush line of acrylic lacquers. Happy Saturday! Regards, George

Thanks. I love variations of OD 41. Do you have an image? Thanks.

Gents: Does anyone know if this color is Dark Olive Drab No.41 or ANA 613? My next project is a 1/24 P-40B from Wheeler Field (1941)-Welch or Taylor. Regards, George

There's no confusion. If I use pre-thinned colors, I may want to use either acrylic or acrylic lacquer paints of the same manufacturer for touch ups AFTER the pre-thinned paint has dried. It happens.

Better late than never. I like MRP paints but they stopped selling its Aqua paints for most of the aircraft colors! Hopefully AK Interactive acrylic lacquer paints will match its bottled paints in terms of color.

Gents: AK Interactive will be releasing Real Colors Acrylic Lacquer paints designed for airbrushing. Paints will be pre-thinned to be poured directly in the airbrush!

Hi Mike, Thanks. Regards, George

Gents: I am currently building this kit and I am finding the observer's cockpit parts are clunky in terms of placement to the observer's right and left side pieces to the observer's cockpit floor and left and right interior walls. Does anyone have photographs of their position relative to the cockpit walls and observer's floor? Also, what is the interior color of the leading edge slats? Insignia Red? Zinc Chromate Green? Intermediate Blue? Sea Blue? Thanks. Regards, George

Hi Jim, I sprayed AS-3, 4, and 5 on the back of plastic white spoons. They look good for RLM 74, 75, and 76. George

Looks nice! I bought the Hasegawa 1/72 version!

Hi James, Happy Sunday and Thank you. I like Tamiya AS and TS paints. I recently used their Day Fighter Scheme spray paints (AS-30, 31, and 32) to spray paint a Tamiya 1/72 DH-98 Mosquito FBVI. It resulted in a great finish. I will airbrush from time-to-time depending on the scale and quality of the model. It is a pain to clean up. Lacquer paints especially Mr. Color produces a nice finish. If you like WW2 scale aircraft modelling especially Luftwaffe fighters, you may find some inspiration by watching Masters of the Air on Apple Plus TV. I watched the first episode free. In my stash, I have an Airfix 1/72 B-17G from the 100th Bomb Group, the same BG from MOTA. The Airfix model was a B-17G that did not survive the war including the crew members. It was very sobering to research that. Regards, George

Episode One was great! Here's some helpful advice to enjoy it better. Don't compare it to Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

Hi Paul. Thank you. This is perfect. George
