Brett M Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Nice recovery, John. Reminds me of the paint issues on my Corsair, but better repairs lol Thunnus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Wow, nice recovery there John. I think that is the difference between a good and a great modeler....we all get crappy outcomes from time to time, its just the great ones know how to recover to the point of no one even knowing if they didnt say anything.

Thunnus Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 Thanks guys! It's funny but the paint lifting is so tantalizingly close to being usable... but it's just too coarse. Some paint repairs have been made including the one by the black tulip and the one on the port wing. Other areas have popped up but they are getting smaller and less. Popped the painted spinner onto the front to give us an idea of where we are headed.

LSP_Kevin Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Looks great, John! The masking problems are a shame, but you're recovering from them well. Kev Thunnus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunnus Posted July 20, 2020 Author Share Posted July 20, 2020 Thanks guys! I think my painting woes are behind me on this one. The decals have been applied. I've tried to avoid the Hasegawa decals as much as I can since they are a bit thickish. Luckily, I have lots spares from the multiple Revell 109G-6 and G-10 kits that I've built and also some Eaglecals as well. After the decals, the model is given another light gloss coat and then a pastel wash using a brown color.
