Thanks guys,

 

Most of the paint repair was done using post-it notes as masking.  I have some half size ones which are good for the job.  Where the repaint was on a demarcation which was curvy, a short piece of white tac worm came in handy..

 

Once the markings are complete and hardened (coat of future) a light overall super thinned grey will be done to fade the colour a little before washes and specific weathering..

I'll post proper photos in the Gallery once I have them done..

 

 

First time in a group build for me and it's been an enjoyable experience even if a little fraught at the end.  Thanks for your help and support..

 

 

Next up Pacific War GB and the Eleventh Hour WWI GB..

well done you made it!! I the frantic rush of builds I missed your last post.

 

They both look awesome though I have to admit I love the Hellcat the most, I love the finish you got on her, first class!! :thumbsup:

 

I would normally ask if you enjoyed the build or not, but judging by the models I reckon you must have. It's been great to have you along and to follow both of these builds. I look forward to following future builds.
