HL-10 Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 I'd like to see Wolpack producing a resin set of bomb bay. Oh I hope not! That'll mean I'd have to build another one and I am fast disappearing under a pile of sanding dust with this one! Seriously though, if they did, it would be pretty impressive if the rest of their sets are anything to go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HL-10 Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Got busy today with this stuff: Gave everything a cote of it to cover up the resin, etch and plastic to give me a good working base and highlight any areas that need more work: It also helps smooths out the air intakes to help give them a more seemless look: It did blister the Humbrol black enamel I used on the canopy, so that will need rubbing down and re-doing, otherwise no real problems.

Jabba Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 That is coming along nicely. How did you remove the raised panel lines after you had re-scribed them? I know that you will have sanded them but what grade of wet n dry did you use? The reason I ask is because I still have this joyful job to do on mine, and I will have to do it soon, and I am not looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a medium grade of wet & dry to take the raised lines off and then, I used fine wire wool to polish out the plastic and remove any dust or residue left in the new engraved lines.

Thanks for that, I shall hopefully get around to this job sometime this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HL-10 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Been busy with my Badger! The two shades of grey are on, and following loads of Blu Tac and masking tape she is ready for the dark green: All paints used are Xtracolor enamels.

HL-10 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 All masking removed and this is the result: I've decided on the final scheme, she will be in the markings of a 35 Squadron Vulcan based at Scampton in 1975, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 As Al said nice paint work. Also I like the way that you have chosen a Sqn that does not often get displayed on a model. Keep up the good work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
