Heads up for anyone building this there are not enough decals to complete sequence 50 decal ref 199 & 200, 2 of each = 4 x 6 blades = 24 or 12 if your Revell, you also need proof of purchase to claim under warrantee

Yes i suspect over time it will, i have another one in the pipeline and hope to change this over soon the new one will support further along the length of the wing 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Set this up in a window and spotted this picture opportunity"...

Thank you 👍

Okay just about there with 963, made the stand and it looks ok added the flying props and did a bit of panel lining but this and weathering is a new thing and a bit of a black art ..... looks ok though seriously under estimated the size of this....

Thank you they are large but fun possibly not for a novis but in for a penny .... 2 came with the kit but i had to chop off there arms and used donner ones to get the to the right shape possition, 1/72 ebay figures pack of 50 ish and other parts trolleys, bikes & chocks

Mk2 aew 8 squadron @ 224 squadron 2nd & 3rd aircraft i have attempted, and there starting to look ok AEW is on the skirt & 224 will be flying model Internal same both aircraft but despite the detail its not visible externally!! pilot and copilot in the cockpit of 224 flying aitcraft i prefabricated all the parts painted them and then attached all to the fuselage Aew just about finished i put leds in side to illuminate the cabin a bit night lights fuselage Open to any comments simon

hi sorry only just noticed your post I used some old fast dry enamel PLASTI-KOTE 105S (project paint)not sure if it is still available it was high in vocs.. sorry about the late response Simon

Well back to work this week some what quiter than usual but great for catching up rreally didnt like the working from home thing to many distractions..... bikes on the other hand have come on a fair bit the movistar i really though would be a bugg** to decal but turned out really great one or 2 minor issues but nothing mental, bit of a panic when i put the micro sol on it as the clear bubbled right up it settled down by morning, i would have clear coated but due to an issue with my air brush that will have to wait for a week or two and i managed to get hold of some polishing compound so would like to try this...before i sign off on these two The other suzuki xr89 went together well and i never gave the decals a second thought till i picked up the first one for the exhaust can, it just disintegrated i have honestly never seen that before, so i used the ones from the 2000 bike and they were fine, from that point on every care was taken and i managed to get most on with no issues, but all were very brittle i even thought of buying the reissued model to steel them from that kit, i have pictures of them and might print a new set but it looks ok not clear coated yet, worst seemed to be the carbon decals on the seat and tail i have patched badly so this area i will very probably redo, let me know your thoughts on the movistar i used an after market carbon decal it looks great but hard to see in the pictures simon

Stunning build 👍

Started body work while waiting for the chrome to strip off the forks, went together quite well bit of sanding afterwards but white paint and blue both when on well quite please with the results, the exhausts on the other hand were a bit of a pest and after 3 attempts settled for what you see not great but been awhile since i did any

bikes looking great, love the engine build those air filter are neat and everything else is so crisp really great build will watch out for more progress simon

Watched the tube great finish on the frame, will need to get some TS 83 and give it a blast thanks for the tip i have a few rc213 bikes might be my next build see how these go....👍

I drilled out the fat centre piece so i could alter the lengths of posts used but it works quite well thank you

The damper was a mixture of tamiya paints 1 part x32 Titanium silver & 3 parts x26 Clear orange. ak exteam will keep an eye open for it ,The allclad works really well once sprayed it misty but drys out to a bright shiny finish but i find it rubs of really easy..hence why i asked might just be me when i clear coat it it turns misy again
