sandbagger Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 Hi all, I've closed up the fuselage now and added the Radiator assembly, tail plane and rudder. I've also completed the weapons fit, having replaced the kit machine guns with equivalents from 'GasPatch'. That required some heavy modifications to the gun mountings parts, Mike Troy Molitor, Dpgsbody55, chukw and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandbagger Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hi all, I've painted the airframe now. This particular aircraft had a 'Tiger Stripe' metal panel strip finish. This appears to have been alternate Aluminium polished and non-polished panel strips. This was done by masking and airbrushing 'Alclad' Duraluminium and Steel. The rudder was just primed with white. Next is painting fuselage details before adding the landing gear etc. Mike Fanes, LSP_Ray, Troy Molitor and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
