Ade's D-Day Build

[Alan 45]

Thanks Alan and Monica,,,,I'm actually not happy with the MP, the camera shows how badly I have painted the MP on his lid, I guess from a distance its not so bad but I may redo it.Adrian

The mp looks fine I've done the same on a 1/35 scale and up close you can see the lettering is a bit out but 1/48 I don't think you've got anything to worry about.

The detail on the uniform is what catches the eye

I've pre shaded my C-47, would show you the pics but after 10 attempts to post my pictures I've given up, the Olive drab went on nicely and shows the wing pre shading very well, but had to rub the roof down a little again as the paint showed a slight bump that would have drove me wild had I left it.

If I can figure out why I cant add my pics I'll add them for you all to see.

I did have the same problem, and let John know, and it seems okay for me know.

Let me just do a quick test. My lad with his latest £70 Gears of War gun prop.

Seems to be working okay for me, dunno then. Let John know Adrian.

Nice job Adrian. If you find this mould bad, Italeri and Airfix do good DC-3s and in D-day schemes as well.

Nice work so far Adrian.

I guess its not been a bad kit compared to some of the horror stories I read on here, have seen the others but needed a 1:48th scale.
