lesthegringo Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Very nice - what technique did you use for the paint chipping on the wing roots? Looks finely done without overdoing it or looking deliberate Cheers Les 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks finely done without overdoing it or looking deliberate Cheers Les Hey Les thanks for the comments mate. For chipping on the wing roots I just used the silver on a small piece of foam technique and dabbed it on sparingly then cut it back with oils. HTH.

(ex)Sgtrafman Posted September 19, 2020 Author Share Posted September 19, 2020 Hey everyone Today I've managed a little work on my Spitfire, that is I've pretty much taken the engine as far as I want too without going mad on additional detailing - the standard kit engine builds up pretty well as it is... ..Looking at it through the eye of the camera it looks a little rough and I can see about 1 million hairs that need removing! Anyway Cheers all Iain 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(ex)Sgtrafman Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hi everyone Just a couple of pictures with the engine module attached.....not over the moon at the moment as it seems that the fit isn't the best but that's probably my doing rather than the kits... ..Still lots to do but we're getting there. Cheers Iain 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom216 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Great looking nacelle and engine! That could sit all on its own. Everything else is just aces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magua87 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Not sure if it's been mentioned already, but the tail wheel is on backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol it’s meant to be, the plane will be part of a dispersal diorama. Iain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles87 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 The fit looks OK from here Iain, they were all removable panels after all. John PS. Just a thought but the tailplanes look very clean compared to the wings and nose, but you’re probably going to do something about that anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
