I look forward to seeing how it turns out.
Ok i'm 99.9% finished with the seatbelts. They've shown me just how bad my eyesight and arthritis has gotten since i last made a set of these. I also made a basic error with one of the belts but i'm done now so it'll have to stay like that. They still need a little clean up regarding threads and one more bit of gluing. They also need to be set to the length for the seat. I have another set for the Me262 kit i plan to build and if i'm honest i'm re-thinking about using the HGW sets again. Yes if i was more dexterous then i wouldn't think twice about using them. But i'm not. Guess i'll decide when the time comes.
Ok here is the enamel/acrylic weathering. Sort of ok. Maybe i should have let the acrylic dry a little more or used a toned down aluminium colour as it seems a little bright. But there again once the cockpit is all closed up i suppose it'll be in the shade. Also a matt varnish will tone it down too.
What you guys think?

Al,
That technique has worked very nicely it looks very good

The scratches and chipping technique looks very nice Al, all covered by subsequent paintwork and weathering has toned down the bright aluminium.
Neat looking office sir:thumb2:.
On a side note, as I recall you’re an avid Lacuna Coil fan too and they’re coming to Glasgow on the 13th of November and a VIP upgrade is also available so you can get some exclusive goodies and meet the band :smiling:.

Eluveitie is great too, for their European tour Lacuna Coil teamed up with them to give us fans an evening full of metal
.They certainly are. Shame Anna left though.
Although I haven’t seen them in the Anna days, Fabienne is a good singer too, captivating the public during her moments.
And she was very good at Dynamo last week, same can be said for the rest of the band too btw.
Chipping turned out excellent Alan , cheers tony
I did a similar thing with my p61 but I gave it a light coating of hairspray after the silver base coat then scrubbed the black top coat off with a wet brush, I was surprised how easily it came off , you have to be careful not to take off too much.
Very nice Al, looks the business!!
Just caught up Alan, some great work on the office. the chipping as worked a treat.
