Right - no other contents added. As said, it seemed to dry rather quickly - you could run a finger over it an hour later. But it seems to be soft beneath a kind of dry surface/skin.

Thanks. I should have mentioned that I used the Aqueous Thinner (No. 110) - not the Levelling thinner; that I only use with Mr. Hobby laquer colours and had no problems so far. Never had any issues with the flat Aqueous Colors. ingo

Years later, finally a reply 🙂 I am experiencing the exact same probem with Gunze H1 (Aqueous Hobby Color Gloss White) - I sprayed it three days ago on the undersides of my Victor K2 - sprays nicely with the Gunze Thinner (although it needs a few layers even on Alclad II white primer), seems to dry quickly to a high gloss finish. But - the model can't be handled yet....fingerprints even if only slight pressure is applied (holding the model). I was able to sand them off luckily but I have to do some extensive masking (grey/green upper surfaces) and I dare not put on masking tape for fear of ruining the white finish, not to speak of fingerprints while handling it for the masking procedure. How long did you finally wait until proceeding? Additional question: Is it the same with Gunzes Mr. Colour gloss paints (the laquer type)?

Very nice! Where did you find the brass landing gear? I could only find the metal parts by ScaleAircraftConversions and I do not trust the rather soft metal to take the weight. ingo

Hi, I bought the kit a few days ago although it's not my favourite scale, but I liked the subject. With some proper scratchbuilding, mostly concerning the interior it can turn out to be very interesting model. My only problem so far (I have not yet started) is the lack of photographs of the interior because Roden provides only the minimum there - and nothing regarding seat arrangement and machine gun installations such as ammo boxes, etc. Can anyone provide some help here? Or knows about some aftermarket stuff coming up?

Very nicely built, painted and weathered - you made the most of this kind of camouflage. The kit - looking at the side views the front proportions somehow look strange to me, as if the fuselage from the intakes forward is too fat or the front landing gear to small, too thin... I can't really put my finger on it but it seems to look a bit strange. Or is that just me?

I am completely satisfied with the announcements for 2019 - MiG-17 and Buccaneer for me. And when I have build them sometime in 2020, new tool Westland Wasp & Scout in 1/72 for that year. Thanks.

Hobby Boss Me.262A-2/U2 with T-Stoff Tow Truck 1:48
Ingo Degenhardt replied to Mike's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
The stencil on the nose gear bay door is "Nicht am Bugrad schleppen" - meaning "Do not tow on nose wheel" 🚫 -
Hi, regarding the deck rail - what length should be the spaces between the rail bases and what did you glue on top? Evergreen? I discovered this just in time for my ASR and would like to do that correction as well. TIA Ingo

Horst Petzschler's Bf 109 G-10, Fine Molds 1/72
Ingo Degenhardt replied to 109 fan's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
I had to double-check that this is really 1/72. Very very well done Bf 109. How did you do the wavy lines on the wing leading edges? -
My Tiger got left in the rain.
Ingo Degenhardt replied to AgentG's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Love it - just as funny as an Eggplane! Who makes those? -
I hope you don't mind me using this thread - I am currently building the Airfix FB.11 and wondered why "155" is labeled 'Korean War' and has no recognition stripes. I always thought all Furys in theatre had them. It is not a mistake by Airfix, is it?

Have you noticed that Sockelshop has a system of 'points' that are added to with each order? From a certain number on you can use them for a discount. Modellbau Koenig (which is around the corner from my location ) has a similar system - for example my status there is that orders above 30,- Euros are sent free of shipping - which even saves me the few kilometres to collect the order from them like I did before. Although - I do not know if these reductions apply for out-of-germany customers. I found both shops to be extremely reliable and fast, too. For years.

Ask all your Sea Fury questions here
Ingo Degenhardt replied to NAVY870's topic in Aircraft Cold War
You're right of course regarding b/w photos. So I think I will stick to the Airfix instructions - may be with the exception of undercarriage legs and actuators....I might paint them some 'steel' colour. Thank you for your efforts. -
Ask all your Sea Fury questions here
Ingo Degenhardt replied to NAVY870's topic in Aircraft Cold War
I did read that but I am still confused. Judging from the picture of WJ236 here on page 2 gear legs and inner doors look more like 'Sky' to me....? -
Ask all your Sea Fury questions here
Ingo Degenhardt replied to NAVY870's topic in Aircraft Cold War
Hi, I just started on my Airfix Sea Fury and I am a little confused about the colours for wheel wells, undercarriage doors inside, gear legs and wing fold 'interior'. Airfix wants them all to be painted in 74 which I understand from reading here is close to 'Hawker Yellow' (some kind of primer?). Is that correct? Or should any of the mentioned parts be painted otherwise? I am doing WJ236, the Korean War version. Thanks Ingo -

Westland Wyvern S.4, Trumpeter 1/48
Ingo Degenhardt replied to Ingo Degenhardt's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Yes, the kit includes the option to make the second (rear) propeller turn the other way when you turn the foremost prop with your finger. Bit of a toy-like feature but easy to include and no external disadvantages. -
Westland Wyvern S.4, Trumpeter 1/48
Ingo Degenhardt replied to Ingo Degenhardt's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thank you. Yes, the kit is a good one. Except for the 60lb rockets. I had to replace (scratch) their rear ends because there is no 'exhaust', just the "X" of the fins. I don't do WIFs (time issues), but it would make a great WIF for Marinefliegergeschwader 2 at Nordholz, yes. -
