MikeMaben Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I just mentioned it because there were variations of DE during the war too. Sounds like you've got things sorted in any case. Have fun. mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 Looking OK so far: I used paper masks cut on the Silhouette then put tiny bits of Blu-Tak under them to hold them in place (rather than long sausages!). I had to do a bit of free-hand spraying to tidy up a couple of edges once the wing masks were removed, but I'm pleased this worked so well rather than having to re-mask. You'll notice a ground crew chappie has muscled in: He's WiP, he started off as a Luftwaffe figure complete with leather jacket but he's gradually being transformed into a BoB RAF erk on a hot day in that famous summer of 1940!

Furie Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I must have missed something, but why isn't the left side of the cockpit painted? mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work in progress mon brave, that area is green so….wings first (cos it’s easy) fuselage next and joins between wings and fuselage (can be tricky) last. It’s done now though you’ll be relieved to hear! MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furie Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Oh dear! For a moment I thought you were going to paint it yellow, white, sky or even blue! I'm so relieved... Landrotten Highlander and mozart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Gadbois Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 « …he started off as a Luftwaffe figure ». Always good to turn one away from the dark side! Inspiring work on the figures, somehow they sort of scare me. Should try one as they add so much to the finished model. Alain mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope to make good progress later today with the fuselage roundels etc, not sure how far I can get in one session. The undersides are as yet primed only, so that needs addressing soon.

mozart Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 Coming along quite nicely, couple of minor touch ups needed: Undersides today then I can start to think about getting her up on her legs. Alain Gadbois, Fanes, MikeC and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
