Rob G Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share Posted June 22, 2016 Well thank'ee. That answers the question about the pylons, too. Any thoughts on what could / would of hung on station 3, if anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Mk.82 Slicks/Snakeyes or Mk. 20 Rockeyes (all on TER-9 but not mixed). Jens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 ... sshhh... Don't tell everyone, but I've got undercoat on this thing. Tamiya white primer, rubbed down with 4/0 steel wool, and hopefully I'll get first colour on it tomorrow (if we can dignify grey by calling it a color). Photo when I get my laptop back together. Remember, mum's the word... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 In a rare frenzy of modelling activity, the white F-16 is now one shade of grey. Photos have been taken, but I can't be bottomed adding them to Flikr and going through all the posting motions - I'll do a bulk photo update when I have something worth showing off. Here's hoping I'll make the deadline... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 All 3 greys are (sort-of kind-of) on. Some touching up (ooh err Matron) to do, then the masking can come off and the radome can be masked off for whatever grey goes on that. Hopefully, Thems As Knows won't be too put out by my attempt.After the radome, decals and dangly bits. That deadline is looking like it's beaten (said he, ignoring hubris yet again.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob G Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Roight... Paint is on. Dangly bits and 'splodey bits are painted and awaiting some sort of wash/detail painting/whatever. Canopy was unmasked by 'someone' who was in a rush to see what sort of mess had been made but forgot that the gloss coat | decals | satin coat had to go on first. If I catch him, imma give him such a slappin'... in the meantime, that'll have to have a quick remask before further work. Then the (thankfully simple - gotta love those practical Danes; no foolin' about with naff fancy markings, just put enough on to do the ID job) decals and a top coat. This'un won't get weathered before the GB ends, but HOPEFULLY (fingers etc crossed) I'll have enough time to finish to a photographable standard. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob G Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Thanks Col, if by 'good progress', you mean 'taking 3 months to build a simple kit OOB' then yes, I'm making good progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
