TimW Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 My turn....I shall be building a 157 Squadron Intruder. The only modifications will be no radar set and the later war roundels with the white bits being smaller. Still going for the overall black as I think that will be pretty striking in this scale. Pictures soon...! Regards, Tim W.
perry Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Very niiiiiiice, will certainly make a nice change from the standard camo. I'm planning on doing similar with a 1/48 in the markings of a Mossie that crashed nearby here during the war. My dad (about 7 at the time) saw it doing aerobatics and watched as it went out of contral and crashed into the side of a house. Apparently the pilot was trying to impress his girlfriend.

I guess he succeded in impressing his girlfriend, though not quite the way he'd planned! Made more progress on the cockpit last night. Love the little instrument/bottle decals! Pix soon. Tim W.

TimW Posted January 30, 2010 Author Posted January 30, 2010 Another angle. References are important. Some of the kit painting instructions are odd, like telling me to do the extinguisher copper. Tim W.
Guest Vincent Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Hi Actually, they are right ! The fire extinguisher was not red, it was brass or copper. Here's few pictures : British : US : Best ! Vincent

Vincent Whoa! That'll teach me! Luckily, that is a pretty easy fix. Glad somebody pointed it out before I put the cockpit in the fuselage!
TimW Posted January 31, 2010 Author Posted January 31, 2010 More progress, including fixed fire extinguisher.
