I gave it one coat of brushed-on Klear floor polish over the fabric areas of the model, and two or three coats on the shinier metal parts such as the wheel spats. She is almost done, just need to tidy up the decals and then install the delicate small stuff like fuel vents, aerials and guns.

Lord Riot Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 How do you get your brush painting so smooth? I have to spray everything otherwise there are brush marks on everything larger than an aerial! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brush marks are there believe me, just don't get too close. Use the biggest brush you can for the job, flat brushes are good for painting an overall one colour, then I use a large pointed brush for the wavy camouflage. Any mistakes I make ( and I make many ) I wipe away straight away with a clean brush dipped in white spirit. regards, adey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you do have to wonder at the mentality of the period RAF and their "bombers are best" thinking when this was the type of plane they had in mind!

Graham Boak Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 To be fair, it wasn't. It was only a quick gap filler that would do to expand the bomber force until the better stuff came along, whilst serving as a transport when required and carrying out the dual role in the colonies. In the end, the Bombay was used to fill the last role while the Harrow filled the first one, and later the second. This getting more sooner than choosing one over the other. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
