Coneheadff Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 This us fun to watch!!!! You're doing a great job! Remember seeing that aircraft back in the 80s when I was at the Black Sea with my aunt and my uncle. Felt in love with it and always wanted to build one...but never did :-( Is there a good Arado kit in 1/48?

ShelbyGT500 Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hi guys After long break and holiday at Black Sea, it is time to finish this build Continue with engine cowlings : For the camo: some hairspray over aluminium color, preshading the panels with white and dark, paint the main green color. Some chipping the paint with wet hard brush. After that some oils and filters over all of the green to achieve different shades of green The yellow duck and some of technical stensils are decals, the rest are masks and paint Hope you like her Cheers guys Hubert Boillot, Trak-Tor, Coneheadff and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeA Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 What an absolutely gorgeous build. I went through from the start, where some of those photos of the tractor and trailer unit could be mistaken for being of the real thing. The painting on the airframe, with the different textures, is just sublime. Amazing! Cheers, Mike ShelbyGT500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
