    Letov s16 in 1/72 KP models

    After seeing steves ( @Steve-the-Duck ) amazing scratchbuilt Avro Aldershot , it reminded me of this aircraft . A fairly obscure subject but one that I always liked the look of , so I bit the bullet and got one . Its the ancient KP models kit , quite reasonable for a 1982 tooling . Its got a bit...

    Pauls MiG 17....Airfix 1/72

    Was watching one of these on ebay this week but missed the auction end , could have maybe got it for £9 all in . If I won it I would have been aiming to do the natural metal version too .

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Airframe now complete , primed and paint has begun . I started with white round the rear fuselage which was masked off for the fuselage band . The grigio azurro undersides followed this then this was masked and the top surfaces given a coat of giallo mimetico ( sand ) . The top colours continue...

    I used vallejo model color acrylic pete , I was concerned about it attacking the paint too , the test piece didnt show any problems though .

    Next figure painting project

    Incredible work john , looks excellent . The new figures look good too . I’ve used the AK 3rd gen paints and found them to be great - although I mainly airbrush them but I thought they brushed ok , nice fine pigment and good coverage . Of course I dont know how they would perform with blending...

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Just remember its virtually impossible to clean the brush steve , plus the thinner it is the harder it is to rub or peel off .
  17. yak face

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Yes its very similar to maskol joe , its a latex fluid that dries very rubbery , its main drawback is its impossible to clean out of a brush and it stinks like fish ! It was always used in schools back in the day over here for sticking paper etc but we mainly used to make great big rubbery balls...

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Yes its still available neil - and stinks as bad as you remember! 😆 😆

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Been playing around regarding the camo scheme . Rather than spraying overall green and trying to paint the sand splodges I’m going to spray the sand first then mask the splodges and spray the green. I got a wing from the spares box and gave it a coat of sand , then applied some random splodges...

    Italeri 1/72 Macchi mc202 Folgore

    Yes , I considered cutting it off and adding it last but it seemed quite strong so decided to risk it -theres plenty of time yet for it to get knocked off ! :LOL:
