Pin Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 This build is somehow doomed - I planned to complete it quick and easily but it takes longer and I get all sorts of self inducted troubles - airbrush spits with water, mismatching and torn decals, paint gets ripped off by masking tape etc. etc. etc. Still we go Black gloss base for polished aluminium MG is made from some etched stuff (Airwaves?) Prop. I don't like the way it looks Seat from the same photo etch was oversized - trimmed it to fit the cockpit Primed Preshaded Painted, futured and decaled. Well - the decals do not match, so I unapplied fuselage decals and painted white and black areas Adhesion is not great Managed to sort the problems out 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pin Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Last touch - I have moved the barrel lower and added ammo belt, for which I have to cut an opening that was quite risky on nearly completed model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
