Painting continues.....

 

I like red.

 

Here are the command stripes on the weapons bay doors.

And some red on the tail hook. This is just a strip of plastic with a hook head, from the spares box, grafted on.

Weapons bay with basic paint. Still lots of plumbing and detail painting  to be done.

Two updates in one day, Holy crap Batman.

 

First decals.

 

Stars and bars from the spares box.

Wing stars. I thought that I would have to paint these on, but no. I found the correct sized items in my Revell Mustang kit. I had to add the red stripe, but that was easy. I have two Mustang kits and only need one set of decals, why would that be? Hmmmmm

Masked and painted two flush antennas under the nose.

I am fortunate that I have these USAF and U S AIR FORCE stencils courtesy of Mr Brian. Thanks again. These things are sweeeeet!

And last some numbers on the tail. Still some work to do on these. I had to cut up some decals to get the right tail number. I still need to clean these up.

Next will be to spray on the Insignia Blue onto the masks. I got some Vallejo Air Blue in the mail today. Haven't used it before. Will need to test it out first.

Wow, just amazing work! Your builds are so gutsy, and I love your approach. Old school with the latest latest tools...

 

It is looking very sharp!

Thank you Richard.

 

Gutsy.....I don't know. But they sure are fun.
