This is another kit I started during last summer. I bought this kit of Fightersweep, Steve, off here.

First up this is where I was up to with the build today when I decided to start work on it again.

The kit features a resin cockpit and wheel wells and a lot of sanding and dry fitting was required to get them both in, especially the wheelwells, I may have a few pics of the build early on in my old phone, will check tomorrow and post them up if I have.

So today i've applied the markings and for those i've again used masks from Top Notch, apart from the fuselage Balkenkreuz which are Maketar.

Masks applied, then on to paint, first the white.

Then the black areas in the wing under side Balkenkreuz.

Then removed the masks to reveal the markings.

Annoyingly I've had a bit of white lift on the port kreuz.

All the rest came out fine thankfully.

Just the Swastikas to apply now and the markings are complete.

As per usual, i've used Mr Paint throughout the build.

Blimey, almost forgotten about this one. The Mr Paint RLM70/71 looks spot on. 

Yeah, I thought i'd get my backside into gear and get this one finished of as well.

Yes they match up well to the Merrick paint chips, but they should do as that is what Rene uses when mixing them up.
