Loving this. Really have a soft spot for the O-2, and have at least two in the stash. Really want to get mine started at some point too. Looking forward to paint! Do you have a scheme in mind already? KiwiZac, MikeC and Scotsman 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrish Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Thanks for the encouragement! The first of the two trim colors is on after a full day of masking...well not all day, I stopped for coffee and lunch and stuff. Anyway, a couple of pics of the model in it's masked up and painted glory, awaiting the second trim color.

airscale Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Love this ..always had a soft spot for civvie stuff - particularly ex military, or the other way around ..and now it's like a suspense movie where we can't wait to find out what happened next!

chrish Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Thanks for the positive comments men! Masking off, definitely some remedial touch up to do here n there what with blue paint creeping in on the white (really gotta learn to buff that tape down) I'll get to work cleaning up the paint creep now Thanks for looking Out2gtcha, Derek B, LSP_Kevin and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiZac Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Chris that's a sharp-looking scheme, I like it! Definitely a far cry from the Lynx! 5 hours ago, chrish said: (really gotta learn to buff that tape down) I don't know if you did so, but I've taken to laying down a coat of the base after masking, and then doing the new colour/s - that's helped minimise seepage in my experience.

chrish Posted January 4, 2022 Author Share Posted January 4, 2022 another model with a fork stuck in it. The upper windows are tinted blue/green but it's not really visible here Ok so the flaps shouldn't be down but when given the option I figured I would use them KiwiZac, scvrobeson, Scotsman and 23 others 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
