sandbagger Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 Hi all, I've moved on a bit and now have the fuselage closed up, primed and pre-shaded ready for the 'Aviattic' linen effect decals. I've also got the two figures primed ready for painting - mechanic from Copper State Models, pilot from 'Blackdog Models', Mike Uncarina, LSP_Kevin, Kagemusha and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandbagger Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 Hi all, It's been a few weeks since I posted for this build - been on vacation. Anyway the two figures are completed now - Barker himself and his mechanic (who will be working on the engine cowl). I'm currently cutting and applying the 'Aviattic' linen effect decals to the models (light PC12 and CDL) - a time consuming job as they are not cookie cut, so accurate paper templates need to be cut first then used to trace the outline onto the decals sheet.

sandbagger Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 The linen effect decals for the PC12 are on now, Mike LSP_Kevin, bstachel, MikeMaben and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandbagger Posted December 27, 2018 Author Share Posted December 27, 2018 Hi all, The linen effect decals for the CDL are on now. The photo is in strong light and doesn't really show the slight applied pre-shading very well. These and the PC12 decals are basic and will be weathered etc later in the build, Mike Model_Monkey, LSP_Kevin and bstachel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandbagger Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi all, The model is progressing now. The 'Aviattic' linen effect decals have had the kit decals added, plus decal black/white stripes. After sealing it's all have a 'Flory' Dark Dirt wash and 'Tamiya' weathering master highlights. The final weathering will be 'AK Interactive' oil/kerosene enamel for engine staining. Then it's on to pre-rigging and assembly, Mike Uncarina, elanlane13, bstachel and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Truly exceptional! The weathering has really brought this to life. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandbagger Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi all, Just a few more showing weathering. For those who are wondering what the four black things under the fuselage are and the 'ears' sticking out of the engine carburetor intake: This aircraft was photographed with under fuselage attachment brackets for a 'Cooper' bomb rack' However no photographs I could find show the actual rack as being fitted. Sopwith Camels serving in the Italian theater had a field service mod carried out to fit 'funnels' to the carburetor air intake tubes, to increase airflow to the engine as they operated at higher altitudes than on the Western Front. Barker's B6313 had both fitted, Mike LSP_Kevin, Model_Monkey, Gazzas and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
