Looking good John. I would use grey myself.

Looking good john, i must try a helicopter sometime, i do have one on the stash.

[John]

I've had a few problems with it, trying to fit the side doors and front glass, I got a bit heavy with the knife when trying to trim a bit off one of the doors, I've filled it and hopefully it won't be noticeable once I've primed it, I hope

Looking good boss.
I would go for a grey primer as well.
Have you gone back to the hairy stick?

[John]

Have you gone back to the hairy stick?

No, I've used one for the small bits and it's quite relaxing doing the small bits, I've masked the windows today with fluid, hopefully will get on with painting in the next couple of days.

[Guest]

Good luck with the masking. Like you said its beginning to look like a helicopter, good job John mate.

Looking good John. White and yellow are real bu**ers to get good and smooth coverage from.

[John]

Grey it is then, not had chance to do much this week but hopefully will get the time to prime it today.

[John]

I'm still doing this, I can't believe it's been over a month since I had time to touch it, I've been working 8 day weeks, 25 hours a day.

I've primed it today, it shouldn't be a month before I get round to doing something else with it.

[Guest]

Only 25 hrs a day and 8 days a week, come on get your finger out, you on holiday or what.

[Guest]

It's not a race, just get on with it when you can and when you feel like it

Looking good john , like yourself ive not had any spare time to model for ages , mind you thats a result of new working hours , weve been put on 11 hour shifts , the days im working i dont have time for anything when i get home and the days off im recovering or catching up with jobs round the house!! Keep at it , as graham says its not a race

[John]

See u next month.

Not quite, I've put the base colour on, I wanted to try the Mission model paints as I've heard lots of good things about them, and I must say I'm quite impressed, no drying on the tip and for a light colour it's gone on really well.
