Doccur Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Thankyou Both! I got the exhaust ring and nose painted last night, just some touch ups required and the intakes to spray as well as the undercarriage and fuel tanks, so maybe, just maybe, I may have this finished by the weekend! 🤞🏼 Ash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doccur Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Don’t you love it when a plan comes together... NOT! The Britmodeller Gods are transpiring against me to keep this out of the gallery! I did some touch up work, removed the masking tape and some of the green and grey decided to peel... just my luck.

Doccur Posted January 30, 2020 Author Share Posted January 30, 2020 Hi all, Thanks for your support! Very frustrating indeed... however, the crisis has been successfully navigated and I have a Hunter that has been gloss coated and is ready for some decs! Cheers Ash 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doccur Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 Cheers Ray! Ive just got the decals down. It wouldn’t have been a long job but cutting the decals up for the undercarriage was a pain 🤦🏻♂️ Going to leave them to set overnight.

Ray_W Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Ash, The KUTA XII gallery shots of your Hunter looks wonderful. Seems like you used the same garden step as PeterB. Do you order them online or buy from your LHS?😁 Cheers, Ray 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
