Bonjour mes amis.

I spent some time over the weekend and finished up the main part of the aircraft, and cleaned up all the various greeblies that I will add later. This was all then primered.

Tonight I started painting the top coat on some of the small parts.

Hi Bob
The primer shows it to be a neat build. Lots of bits and pieces to add.

Hi Bob, a great build. I'm late into this build but needed the inspiration after having a hard time with my Kinetic F-18. Good to see it go smoothly and the office looks good with resin.

At best you're now on primer and first coat. The new Airfix kit looks like a good fit too. This is good mojo for me to continue fighting with the F-18.

Cheers,
Richard

Cheers guys.

After priming I only had a couple of small areas of seam that needed sorting. A dab of Mr Surfacer 500 and a sand back took care of them.

After touching up the sanded areas with primer I got the first of the three Grey's down. Kinda wished I'd used a different colour of primer as it was hard to differentiate the shades.

I'm letting it cure overnight then will get it masked up for the next slightly darker grey.

[Mr Bowcat]

Evening chaps.

Finished up the third of the grey's, which took some time consuming masking, but it seems to have come out alright.
