Those pics we sent in by a Para who is a modeller. The Walkaround section is only as good as what we get in. Good looking model as well.

Sorry to disappoint Tony, I'm going to use the AlleyCat C-47TP conversion. It'll be in dark sea grey with a white roof. Yours is coming along very nicely Julian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is coming along very nicely Julian It will still look excellent Julian,....it still has that cool Shackleton style scheme and I cannot wait to see what you do with it mate. Thanks,..... however I painted the blue cheatline today,...took the masking off and it was a disaster!!! So sanding the paint and trying again!!!

tonyot Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hiya Folks, I`ve lost my Flickr account because it is full,.......so here is an attempt at posting a progress pic using Village.Photo,..... the second attempt at the blue cheatline!; Cheers, Tony 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hiya Folks, Well the masking tape is off after a last minute rectification to the cheat line which I`m not too happy about,...but hey! I think I`ll start the decals next,...... time to source some roundels, fin flashes and to start cutting out all of the titles and serials from Xtradecal/Modeldecal sheets!!!

tonyot Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) I`ve re done the cheat line on the left side yet again since the above pics were taken,..because I wasn`t happy with it,....... if it is still wrong after the 3rd time of masking and re masking it,....I may just fling it at the wall!!!

I understand your frustration, I've got loads of models that I see an error with every time I look at them (I say loads, actually everything I've ever made), but to me that looks very nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
