Started this years ago (2010 ?) next in line for my recently passed SOD REDUCTION ACT. A lot of trailing edge reduction, needed a spacer in the rear fuselage to get the ventral part to fit, made a mold for the missing doghouse bulkhead ... scratched a seat and frame (didn't use the frame) ... Anyway, it's about 90% done so I thot I'd post some shots of the fruits of my labor I used a mask set from AML of the Czech Republic. MRP Earth first, I thot was a little dark so I added a fair amount of yellow and a little white. Then the masks, then MRP Dark Green that I added a little yellow to as well, after which the demarcation lines were a bit too sharp for me so I went back and softened up the edges and did the usual touch ups. I got the Rotol spinner and blades from AIMS (before John Mcillmurray had his hand surgery) very nice resin. Painted the spinner Night which used MRP Black and added some blue that was somewhat close to cobalt . Next up are decals. I'm going to try a method I thot of when I did the Jersey Jerk, painted a white decal sheet with the colors I will need and cut them on the Silhouette. No silvering, just paint. ...wish me luck .
