Recommended Posts

       Morning everybody... Im hoping everyone is staying safe and healthy this Tuesday morning. I mixed a batch of ADC Grey and sprayed this down yesterday afternoon. FfyAMoM.jpg

The areas that are unpainted will be masked off and sprayed Gloss Blue tomorrow.

Not pictured are the landing gear doors, there are two each for the main bays. I will have to mask the rear half of the rear door on each side as it will be split with Gloss Blue. You can see the centerline Data-link pod in the background, that will eventually be painted white and black. Please feel free to ask questions, post comments, and or thoughts.

        Hello everyone... I masked this off today but in the end decided that I’d paint it tomorrow, as I didn't feel like dragging out the A/B. ODmbiV0.jpg

So I’ll spray the blue tomorrow and the painting will be done on this. Please feel free to ask questions, post comments, and or thoughts.

Sorry I've missed this before, your build is really interesting, especially the choice of colour scheme. I think you picked a great idea 👍

       Morning everybody... I painted the black portions on the data-link pod last night. I will mask them off and spray some touch up white to clean up the lines. And then we’re on to decals. lw1R9PD.jpg

        Evening everybody... Well 95% of the decals are on, just the FAA serial that needs to be made up. CdK7t88.jpg

        Hello everyone... So I sat back after the decals had dried. Studied the decals and realized i forgot the red swoop portion that overlays the main decal. However after i started placing the decals on I realized the company that made them messed up. Lets see if you can figure out where. 8OfZUOE.jpg

Well at least these are the only sheet I've got left of a Promo pack from the ‘04 U.S.Nationals. I can honestly say I’ll never buy Two-Bob’s decals. Everyone of the three promotional sheets in that pack had something wrong with them.

I still need to add the N-NA around the 107’s on the Fuselage. bJYyVbG.jpg
