themongoose Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 That is one bright build! Looking great. And no, I wouldn’t have noticed had you not told me. With the curves on the plane it’s really tough to tell a stripe or two isn’t parallel without studying it. One cool thing about this kind of paint job is it fools your eyes, kinda like those pics where they ask you if you see the old woman or the young woman in the picture.

Gazzas Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 It looks brilliant! I would have never thought to count the stripes. Great job! Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olgerd83 Posted May 9, 2021 Author Share Posted May 9, 2021 propeller is ready, to paint it I used a Radome as base colour, added masks and covered with Red brown, after removing masks used oil paint to have a wooden effect on the lighter layer. Finally propeller was covered with Future Martinnfb, Gazzas, MikeMaben and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olgerd83 Posted May 9, 2021 Author Share Posted May 9, 2021 - for machine gun cowls I used old Fotocut PE kit - made a preshading for bottom sides - bottom sides were painted with light blue, covered with Future and decals were applied. Also I used Gaspatch resin anchor points and turnbuckles, I wish I knew that they are very fragile. I had to buy the metal ones instead. I spent more than a week for simple rigging...
