Erwin Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Hi all, Decided to have a go at finishing this stalled build. With a small month to go in this GB,I might make the deadline. Joined the wings,elevators and fin today...
Texas Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 HI Great Glad to see someone working on that kit and I sure like what you have dun so far. Texas
Hacker Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 We may need this. There has been alot of talk about mosquitos and at least two builds of late
Hacker Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Erwin, I love her, what a great build..do they still sell this kit? Me must have..kit is good!!!! Ted As far as l know its still out of production but a few have turned up here for sale and there are quite alot on ebay that go for reasonable prices. l am sure once Airfix brings out their 1/24 kit Revell would bring their 32nd verson to compete
Allok Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Hi Erwin. Lookin great. Hard to believe you get stalled on a model, considering how fast you build them! Good to have you back.
DaveJ Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Hey this is cool! It's great to see you sharing your skills with the LSP crowd again, Erwin! This one should look great when finished...
Erwin Posted January 24, 2008 Author Posted January 24, 2008 . Hard to believe you get stalled on a model, considering how fast you build them! How about this stalled 1/24 th Monogram . I'm missing the ammobelts . Anyone have leftovers for this one ?
Jack Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 How about this stalled 1/24 th Monogram . I'm missing the ammobelts . Anyone have leftovers for this one ? Have them, PM me with your home address and they are on their way! J.
Ian A Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 She's coming on well, Erwin. I've got a Mexican copy of this in the stash, but have never started one. I second Keith's comments on how hard it is to imagine you stalled given your habitual speed! My Spit is still well and truly stalled, although given the C 40 degree temperatures we 've been having here of late getting out into my workshop hasn't been that appealing!
Erwin Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 Started the paintwork. Rather than painting all the patterns seperatly. I paint the lightest shade first overall. In this case the steelgray. The green camouflage goes on next.
Texas Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 HI Looking better all the time and your doing a great job on the old bird. Texas
Erwin Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 Topside done. The green is a 50/50 mix of Humbrol matt olivegreen and darkgreen.
CPNGROATS Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Dear Erwin: Your Mossie is looking nice, very nice indeed... Cheers, ggc
