Uncarina 4,620 Posted May 8, 2016 As I mentioned, Hasegawa provides 1/32 templates: ...which were used to cut the masks: So I managed to complete the camouflage and even the yellow theater markings (I do not like painting yellow--it goes where you don't want it, and is tricky to spray evenly where you do want it, even over paint). In any case, I am pleased so far. Now I will focus on applying the markings, painting the canopy, and working on the winter coat.

toadwbg 34 Posted May 9, 2016 Loops amazingly like my own Stuka I did a couple years back. If I can find a link I'll post it for comparison. 1 Uncarina reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Learstang 164 Posted May 9, 2016 Lovely! It should look a treat with the winter camouflage applied - love winter camouflage! One of the things that's always attracted me to Eastern Front subjects, both Axis and Soviet. Regards, Jason 1 Uncarina reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncarina 4,620 Posted May 9, 2016 Wow, nice paint job, I love the subtle variations in tone. Thank you very much! I heavily preshaded with black, but I'm not sure how it will end up with the winter coat. Cheers, Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be great--I am curious to see how this will end up after the winter coat, but I know that Tom Cleaver did a spatless build with this kit and left it in RLM 70 and 71.

One of the things that's always attracted me to Eastern Front subjects, both Axis and Soviet. Regards, Jason Jason, Thanks, I appreciate it! My plan is to use enamels over the acrylic clearcoat, so I will have room to correct if necessary. Cheers, Tom 1 Learstang reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncarina 4,620 Posted May 17, 2016 Made some progress: added the markings and painted the canopy. I wanted to take some photos before I add the winter coat! Cheers, Tom 4 Learstang, mywifehatesmodels, theseeker and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Learstang 164 Posted May 18, 2016 Excellent paint job! See, this is where I'd chicken-out and decide not to do the winter overpaint. But I hope you do the winter scheme. Regards, Jason 1 Uncarina reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncarina 4,620 Posted May 18, 2016 That's a great paint job, Tom! It's almost a shame to cover it up again. Kev Kevin, Thank you! In a way, this will be two builds, and after I add a few of the last add-ons I will take a few more photos before changing the look. Cheers, Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
