Hagar Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 I was happy with the 2 part canopy. I painted the frame first and taped up the glass. Then I was able to just lay the glass on the frame and touch a small amout of Tamiya green cap and let it sit. I did future the glass first. I thought it was a great fit.

Thomas Lund Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Looks great James, such a different scheme - awesome. I echo the others - fun is what matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagar Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Okay almost done. Barracuda wheels came yesterday and are almost painted. Canopy on. Touch up painting, canopy support and wheels to be finished. And my walk of shame. The armoured glass that crazed despite being futured. And the mysterious finger print that I finally saw after the flat coat was on. I swear I had it all cleaned up. Oh well, next one will be much better.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinuheH Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Hi James Welcome to the club - I never seem to be able to finish a model - without discovering a fingerprint somewhere! Nice job, so far though..... keep at it! Sinuhe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showtime 100 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 One of the many reasons I wear examination gloves once the painting/finishing starts. Really dig the scheme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Driver Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 A little mud and dust weathering will hide the fingerprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imatt88 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Sweet! what decal sheet did you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Sweet! what decal sheet did you use? Hey Matt, Im pretty sure Hagar just used the OOB decals as Meng put some real nice decal options in the OBB for the captured Brit livery. Having looked over the decals in my copy, they are really nice, and should apply with NO difficulty at all.
