Col. Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Great to see this one taking paint Neil. Everything is looking smooth and it's almost a shame there's no hint of all the extra work you've put into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Primer time oooooh! Missed your post the past couple of weeks Neil, good to see you back. Colin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 It is indeed great to see you back at work on this beauty, Neil! I would say this is inspiration for me to get back to work on my Lancs, but we both know that's a lie! Although, from where I'm typing this, I can see my Manchester, my GR.3, and my B.II (or the box at any rate)... Regards, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asking I know that isn't the actual font on the plane The badge stripes, blue;white;red;white;blue????? Just messing about, I have a little milliputting on this evening you see Bill, from what I can tell from a profile drawing inside the front cover of the Warpaint publication, the text is in white with the strip badge above being in blue/red/blue. As for the font, I'd be happy if it was something close, better than nothing! Me too. Don't like the making of models bit Neil? May have the wrong hobby old chap (Cheap shot - I know - but hey - if you can't be genuinely amusing be pedantic I say ) lol, where did the 'S' go? I meant 'masking' Got the black base coat on tonight, tomorrow evening hopefully, the masking will come off and we should have a ...well a Lincoln of sorts to look at 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody37 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 After what seems like an eternity, there's finally paint splashed right across the beast. Got some tidying up to do where the mask didn't hold, but that's expected. Next step...get some decals on...yeehaaahhh!!!! Big thanks to Tony OT for supplying the squadron logo and Bill (Purdu) who is doing me a decal for the 'The Burra Hornet' text on the nose, it now looks that we have the necessary nose art available for RF476 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody37 Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hope to see some more built Glenn Started to put the decals on last night. The roundels are from one of the Blackbird sets, the letters are from Modeldecal. Once applied, the letters were brushed over with Kleer and used the brush to get the Kleer under the decal too to prevent any silvering. This seems to of worked pretty well.
