Tallyho Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Maru, thanks for the kind words. I forgot to mention that this was an OOB build with no AM involved except that the red paint was accomplished using ADASTRA masks. Durring his research, Ian at AdAstra noticed that the antiglare panel on the real Sleepy Jean was painted over the red and brought it to my attention so I could get it right, on the model. I consider that to be 'above & beyond' normal customer service. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Fred, superb work, looking very good, how'd you do the baremetal/aluminum part, looking very convincing. J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallyho Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Jack, The paint is Tamiya 'silver leaf' in the rattle can, with a coat of future before and after the decals and my halfhearted attempt at weathering. Kevin---Thanks for the compliment. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Fred Outstanding build on the Jug. Fit and finish look awesome. I noticed you did a bit of surgery on the nav lights -looks real good. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallyho Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 /nice one mate - who's decals were there or were they Ad astra creations? Ads Ads, The decals were aftermarket supplied by Chris S. and I've already forgotten who made them, perhaps he'll see this and chime in.

Cunumdrum61 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Nice job and the finish looks really nice. Always good to see another Tbolt finished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
