FLASH!, AHAAAAA!! Well, it was inevitable, really... In my defence, I already had the airbrush out, I had no idea when the weather would be nice again the next few weekends, my compressor purred away real horrorshow... So, I started another one. This isn't madness, this is Britmodeller! Since the kit is well known (well, it should be, after nigh fifty years!) I didn't bother with sprue shots. Here are the already joined (seperate recce nose to common F-/RF-84F main fuselage part) sprayed (DGG pit, Burnt Iron exhaust area and NATO Black nose compartiment) fuselage with the box top to give an indication of the boxing: Nice decals, although I am not going to use them (there's a clue in the thread title to which colours she'll wear!), and some Gunze Mr. Masking thrown onto the clear parts: Aluminium intake areas and Chromate Green gear bays plus other bits: Also, since we do have some standards here, the very basic Italeri stock office simply would not do. So, out with the Evergreen for the basic tub and a quick & dirty Green Stuff clone of the Sword RF-84F dashboard for at least somewhat in there to view through the to be closed canopy: This since received some Dark Gull Gray as well - pics to follow! Cheers, Andre -
Hi all I don't model with an overriding theme other than buying & making things I quite like the look of (with a strong bias toward good value) I was musing what to build next and was thinking of doing a pair of Thunderbolts and hauled out the two I have as part of bigger sets and Havibg done so I've now realised the box art in the Gabreski set is a nonsense (it should be green & grey with red nose/tail v.similar to the Revell boxing) and both planes only have one decal option Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent priced decal sheet (I only need/want to change one of them) or a partial sheet they'd be willing to sell/swap that'd do? I'm not wildly fussy but it seems a shame to make two nearly the same planes alongside each other (to me anyway - I've seen some amazing work on multiple variations on a theme but I don't think that's for me)

Argh, I've just taken all the masking off my B-17G only to managed to slightly push in the side gunner windows and also have the ball turret mount come loose inside the fuselage! Anyone got any ideas or tips how to fix things?
