GREG DESTEC Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 Hi Greg, I know what you mean. I think it's because Christmas is coming and we are busy at work trying to make up for the Chritmas break. Joe Yep, no slowing down on the work front here either, i'm not fancying my chances at getting much modelling done over the Christmas/New Year period either! Just as well the group runs till the end of January 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatboydim Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Yep, no slowing down on the work front here either, i'm not fancying my chances at getting much modelling done over the Christmas/New Year period either! Just as well the group runs till the end of January I'm away over Christmas visiting my son, so I won't get anything done on my Sea King. The end of January 2017 would help if you happen to see this Mish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaStix Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Hi Greg. It's all looking very good with the paintwork on and I like the views into the cockpit and bomb bay - they look nicely busy! Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Looking fine, Gregor. Painting a big kit like this with brushes is much work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 Hi Greg. It's all looking very good with the paintwork on and I like the views into the cockpit and bomb bay - they look nicely busy! Kind regards, Stix Thanks Stix, it is a nice kit but quite big on the self next to my single engine stuff. Brush painting single tone over the larger areas proved challenging too, but its looking not too bad. Cheers Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Bernd, brush painting a bigger kit like this one needs some resolve! Getting there though.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 bottom kicked! Got this one done, mostly over Christmas. Not my best model if i'm honest but its done and i'm reasonably happy with it in the circumstances. Theres quite a few errors in there but they aren't major (to me). Main thing is its done, heres some pics: Thats it folks! Few more pics in the gallery. Thanks for looking. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonymousDFB1 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Very nicely done, another doomed build rescued. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Very nice! I have the same one in the stash planning to do just these markings Thanks Bowman, beware the kit decals, they are very thick, and are the type where you have to add the bullseye to the roundels, which was annoying for me.

GREG DESTEC Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Well done Greg - good to see it finished and it looks great! Well done. Thanks Stix, i'm glad to get this one finished after such a long break from it. The model definately suffered from the long gap between builds. Cheers, Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
