StephenCJ Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I shouldn't be doing this, starting another, but I am a little sick of filling, sanding, undercoating and inspecting and repeating. There should be not much filling on this, famous last words. Going to go from this to finished in a week and also work on the Concorde. It is also supposed to be raining over the weekend so no telescope. Thanks for looking. Stephen 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Dapple Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Shouldn't give you too much grief mate, if you are just after a quick build it should fit the bill nicely Cheers, Stew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenCJ Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 I thought it would be quick. That dastardly concorde is taking up most of my time. Some progress. Cockpit bits Thanks for stopping by. Stephen 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenCJ Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 More progress. Painted the prop. The white side of the aircraft. I thought I would try something different and paint the fabric part of the plane a fabric colour, but the second photograph does not show this effect very well. Maybe a new image in the morning. Thanks for stopping by. Stephen 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will definitely try this as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenCJ Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 Update time. Repainted the white, I didn't think there was much difference between the fabric and metal parts of the model. This is the dark earth part of the camo scheme. I achieved this by painting the metal parts black and the fabric white and then applying the dark earth. I don't know if I need to add more colour or not. Input please. Would aircraft at this time of the war become very weathered??? Thanks for looking.

J Sherratt Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Looks good - I just started one of these today! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenCJ Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 More progress. Painting finished and decals on. This is probably the worst paint job I have done in quite a while. Some of the decals have silvered and the paint is rough. I will just have to build another. Thanks for looking. Stephen 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magua87 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Mate, that looks amazing for a rough job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry1954 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Another build of this very fine kit. I really enjoyed my build earlier this year, exactly in that scheme, and you are doing a fantastic job there. I like the way you masked the demarcation between black/white before putting the various air scoops on .... very wise. Mine was a devil to mask! I have another in the stash and the Alleycat metal wing conversion, so may attempt that soon! Really looking forward to seeing your's complete.
