Problems with my new photohost  are preventing me updating progress.

The airframe is together now, recognisable as an A-10.

Photos are being taken.

I've found a long winded workaround, so here's the fuselage

And the wing Boeing assembled

I'm probably overdoing the lead.

Tim type masking: 

I've scaled the painting instructions to same size as the model, and cut around the green areas last night.

I have to say that the shape of the A-10 does not lend itself to this type of masking.

 

An early afternoon clock-off, and out with the airbrush for some dark green, Humbrol 163

I did the fuselage freehand, unmasked.

Tomorrow, on with the grey.

Two finish options - both Europe Lizard.  I've not decided which as yet.

 

Well I liked both so much, I did something that doesn't happen very often.
