Sivcev Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Today I masked the windows, in hours I will airbrush that, hope will be Ok. Photo for cockpit windows is showing how I will paint silver color for frames. Of course first go black, after that mask for windows than silver.

Sivcev Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) Nije niko, ali znam i sam da sam lud, najgore je to da sto sam stariji sve sam ludji. Sorry for OT on Serbian/Croatian. Edited May 9, 2008 by Sivcev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bexwh773 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 WOW shes GORGEOUS Sivcev Youve certainly got some patience for all that masking Bexy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivcev Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) I hate to mask, but I have not choice because the decals are yellowed. Only fuselage registration, doors outlines and "tristar" on the fin will be decals, it is to small for making masks.

Sivcev Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) Today I glued aluminum foil to wing just to see how will look. I am pretty satisfied how it goes. Please help me about painting the BA wings. Slats & flaps are natural metal, but I do not sure if middle section is also NM or corogard or gray Edited May 20, 2008 by Sivcev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Can't help with the wing question, but I can tell you that the work so far is outstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 The wing work looks great As for the wing colour having a look on Airliners.net it would seem the centre sections are painted a grey. Lockheed had its own grey colour for the wings and tail plane. It was a similar colour to Boeing's BAC707 Grey (FS16515). Lockheed's colour was not the same but close, so you could get away with using the Boeing Grey. Some shots from Airliners.net Wing underside Wing Top Do the kit instructions mention what colour the wings are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivcev Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 (edited) here are hasegawa painting instructions Hasegawa confused me, I also think that wings are painted as you say, according with photos. Edited May 21, 2008 by Sivcev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
