Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Thanks Ron She sure is a handful and I'm going to play it safe and order a backup set of MRP paints for the fuselage and wings to be on the safe side. The Owl semi fits in between the Mossie and Mitchell is size and wing span and I know how the Mossie consumed a healthy amount of paint.

Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Shaka, Very much appreciated. Just love them socks. I considering a small vignette for the Owl with a few figures and maybe a bit of equipment as well - but that's down the road a ways.

Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Thank JA Just got lucky with the scribing and spent hour after hour sanding to get a nice, smooth fit of the large panels. Scribing the Scooter - could be arrange - we just need to workout a payment plan Bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Much appreciated John The Owl seems more like old school with all the cleanup but thank goodness it's all done and I have my fingers crossed the balance of the parts will be a lot better.

Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Carl, so very much appreciated. Looking over the Ow,l I thought I would try and do as much as the scribing and cleanup work now, as once the wings or even the tail surfaces go on, handling the model would be a huge challenge.

Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Hi Oliver Thank you for the compliments. Geez, I've been having nightmares thinking about doing the cammo. Seems the cammo isn't done by painting the blotches on but rather creating them by painting all the wavy lines and patterns. Nothing ever seems to go easy.

Guest Peterpools Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Much appreciated Alan. Now that the instructions and I have come to terms, there haven't been any new surprise to trip over. Looking forward to the detail painting this week as a nice break from building and sanding. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John F Smith Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Breathtaking! Wow, Peter, it just keeps getting better and better. I'm sure that with the difficulties you have described that this is surely a labor of love. But you have taken this kit with a lot of shortcomings and are turning it into a work of art. Your skills are very much in evidence. Brilliant work! John Joel_W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urs Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) I think thats the most sexy WWII-plane. I just ordered my Revell-copy of it - after watching your built. Great work on the pit. Edited March 27, 2017 by Urs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Boillot Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I am always impressed by the neatness of your detail paintwork, Peter. I wish mine could be half as good. Keep it coming Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
