Very nice great looking cockpit I have one of these but only 1/72 scale I seem to remember seeing these in The Works 9.99 have I got that right Peter or am I mistaken ? Good luck with the rest of your build one to watch I think !

 

[peterairfix]

No you were not mistaken i got this a couple of months ago from THE WORKS and i have been itching to start it.

Got the main body together and it's first coat of paint so it's going to be very big and very red.

Humbrol no19 gloss red using a flat wide brush

That's an amazing skill Peter. I can barely get that standard with an airbrush!

Well done!

Really impressive........ and a superb finish with a brush.

Lovely job on the paint Peter.

You've just proved a point to all the die hard airbrushers.... you certainly can retain detail and get a high gloss finish with the hairy stick.

 

[flyjoe180]

A super result Peter, nicely done paint job so far mate.

 

[Guest]

[peterairfix]

Thank's for all your comments about the paint work all i would like to say is that i have been using the HAIRY STICK for the last 20 pus years so that's most likey where i get it from.
