I am really loving this build and your attention to detail   I'm intrigued to why you have foiled the fuselage spine and interesting to know your reasoning on this, looks very good though.

Hi Andy :) well I foiled because with time the seam-line after painting get old and after years became visible. But when is protect with foil everything will be fine :)

 

The gears, wheels, props and Jumo engine are painted and ready to be installed :

Aaand just finished the priming of the plane - two and half hours just for the upper side of the monster . . .

Maybe next weekend I'll continue with the lower part, because think I will destroy my air-compressor :)

Cheers friends.

Hi friends :) It is time for painting - first black primer and pre-lighning of every one of the panels.

After that start to paint the aluminum spots - where the chips will be. Wet the spots with some water and cover with salt.

And finally cover with rlm 65 and its shades.

At the end remove the salt to reveal the chips:

Well it is time for the upper camo-painting - typical German camo - broken glass with rlm 70/71. Paint the upper wing tips with white and the lower side with white, green and red ;)

Imitating some weathering chips with a salt, also paint the walking zone with yellow stripes :
