olgerd83 885 Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 Thank you guys, let's proceed: - I painted all fuselage tubes and glues all cockpit details together - surprisingly, I spent very little amount of putty - while putty was drying, I decided to work a bit with engine. I removed plastic wires - glued both engine halves together - using nuts, medical needles and wires I made.... this hedgehog also painted all engine details in black - fuselage and wing were sanded - and covered with primer - to be continued.....

olgerd83 885 Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 Thanks. Christmas long weekend was very productive -painted wings in yellow, firstly I used Hataka paint for Early US planes colors, but I didn't like how it looks (used half of bottle and it was not too bright) so I repainted everything with Mr.Hobby RLM 04 Here, on left, you can see Mr.Hobby and on right - Hataka all wings are covered with Mr.Hobby RLM 04 yellow parts are covered and fuselage was painted in blue I like it very much, even though its an American plane, but it looks so Ukrainian ))) Fanes, mgbooyv8, LSP_Kevin and 6 others 8 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Very good work and progress, Oleg! Cheers, Peter MARU5137 1 Link to post Share on other sites

And not just in models, but in life in general, I believe that if you do not, than what's the point even to start... Meanwhile, small update with the build: - kit offers to use decals for a rudder, but I decided to paint it - drilled some holes and added wires, I know they should be a bit thicker, but I do not have such a wire, sorry (a perfectionist inside me screams ) - Roden is one of the companies that gained during this lock-downs and pandemic, they finally managed to make an awesome decals. In this kit they are thing, do not brake, even without using Set/Sol look good These pictures were taken before covering decals with additional future layer. Thanks for watching, to be continued...
