PhantomBigStu Posted July 11, 2018 Author Share Posted July 11, 2018 Started over the weekend And some paint on, decided to brush the silver, looks ok, not as nice as spraying it but easier 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Underside all sanded and repainted, now the upper leading edges painted silver the rest will be painted dark blue tommorow, no longer opting for the mix, using Vallejo gloss sea blue instead that I forgot I had 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 First coat of blue on 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 Big problem, the blue scratches very easily, had the same problem with the blue spitfire I did recently, so will have to do what I did with that, paint a coat of a Revell blue as a base, repaint the blue then varnish it before touching up the silver and painting the red bits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhantomBigStu Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 Did some thing rate for me,actually getting the decals on promptly. Still got the bottom ones but that’s a 5 minute job in the morning 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Nice job on that Stu, good to see Lanowski's plane done, that mailed fist throttling the crap out of a Messer is an awesome badge. I've got a kit on the way, unfortunately a later one so I'll have to use the Techmod decals. Steve. Edited July 18, 2018 by stevehnz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkeEins Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 it has its detractors but its a lovely little kit and that's a special scheme too.. nice! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Wow that paint looks like it was a nightmare! Great save though, it's a handsome scheme in red, blue & silver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted July 19, 2018 Author Share Posted July 19, 2018 Cheers guys, don’t know why but got a thing for polish schemes, doing a polish spitfire next, will be finished today or tommorow, currently being varnished. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ-WobblyHands Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Nicely finished - though I am not sure the Sidewinders or Sparrows in the background are suitable ordanance ! 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
