That's it done. I'll crack open the paint tomorrow night. Fist full of tape used in the process though. My eyes need a rest now :)

Nice job. At least splinter Cam is in straight lines. Mind you, biggest I’ve done is a 1/48 Stuka. This must be huge in comparison…..

Top half painting done. Now to let it cure then time to paint the underneath.

Yeah not too bad Tim. One little dot of paint lifted with the tape but that can be hidden with a 'squiggle' :)
 
Alan,
Just had a good catch up. Coming on very nicely the paintwork on both looks very good.

Just having a little play with rust pigments to see what i can achieve. Not the final product but i think i'm getting there.

Seriously need to clear my backlog of builds so for the first time in absolute months i got my airbrush out today. Not much more of this build to go so i need to crack on with it. Although the squiggle painting will take a little bit longer.
Added the underneath colour today. Will let that dry and do a few little touch ups then it's onto the squiggles.

Crack on Al, to be fair you have very busy in work

Good to see the build back underway!!
 
Hi Alan
A blast from the past. You've done too much work not to finish it. Looking forward to the squiggles.
Jim
 
Looking forward to seeing this one done. The squiggles will make the finish….

The instructions are the old Revell type that are printed in dot-matrix so the demarcation is very hard to see at times. I've penned the basic outline of the squiggles so i'll just wing it from there lol

Hi Alan,

Great to see this back at the bench and she is looking good. Better you than me with the squiggle pattern though. Don't think I would have the nerves (or enough beer) to try it. Will you be masking or going freehand???

Prost

It'll all be free hand Allen. And maybe beer could make it more 'flowing'? lol
