corsaircorp Posted July 27, 2022 Author Share Posted July 27, 2022 Hello Gents, Frau CC was at work, and I'm about to get my place on the roadside.... Time for a sneaky airbrushing..... Walkways will be painted with the hairystick, it is still the best way to give some texturing for the paint... I tried to go for a bit of painted masking tape but it is too thick even for 1/48.... Happy modelling friends.... Still four evening work day to go.... Sincerely. CC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now wait.... Seemingly, this shot is from yesterday..... Not far from here in the ardennes.... Maybe, Xantho has been probed by some @Martian..... Hey martian, you can tell your alien's buddy that they are welcome for a pint of rocket Fuel.... Sincerely. CC 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martian Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 So happy you got your cat back, it's horrible when that sort of thing happens, life just goes into limbo. I am so pleased that I shall only sentence you to ten days cessation of beer rations, rather than the ten weeks the scurrilous part of your post wound normally attract. I have enough on my plate as it is with two kittens with Hyperactive Attention Disorder without needing to add cats belonging to Earthlings to my problems! Lenient of Mars 👽 PS: And don't think I don't know about that stash of booze you have hidden in the Naughty Corner. It has been removed! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if I drank some Chimay , moult included obviously..... Well Gents, The SHar is almost done.... A bit of weathering but she stand on her wheels.... Now what about the chipping ??? Due to the extreme climate conditions, the paint was heavily weathered.... I tried to have something that look like the pic received from Tony O'T Tony is clearly missed on here.... More to come soon !! Wednesday, I'll get out with Miss CC But on my first day of vacation, I got 2 (one would have been too common is'nt it ???) tooth abcesses.... I look like a boxer.... Not the dog.... See you later. Sincerely. CC 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Hello Dears, Even with pain hammering my jaws, I spent a bit of time on the bench.... At least my mind is buzy.... But highly failible..... I knew that the destructions were wrong..... When I took this shot, I felt that something was wrong..... And when the penny dropped.... It was too late.... Sooooo..... Now finding another fin flash.... Of the right size.... I already picked the wing roundels from another kit.... The Royal box Eduard gave the decals for ONE post war Tempest only..... I hope that the big yellow H restocked the post war roundel decal sheet.... Fingers crossed.... See you on friday Gents !! Stay safe !!

You could cover the stencils using Post-it notes cutouts (being very low tack) and regular tape for the actual fin flash.

As a pure BMer, everytime I had a good time like that one, I send you both a bunch of good energy !! Hello dears !! Well, I found a valid donor? Old Hobbycraft Hurricane decal sheet..... I first gave a coat of decal film on it.... Given the poor shape of that sheet..... Colors stayed good in water, the blue is a bit darker than the Eduard one, I'll live with that..... Now, the eagle eyed among you have noticed that the upper right corner of the decal is a bit curly..... I waited a bit, nerve raking indeed, but it stayed that way, So, I gave a thin coat of decal film once again and GOTCHA !! This morning, the decals is still well placed.... More to come this evening... I'll work on something different..... Mood is changing....And I have plenty of started kits.... Thanks @The Spadgent for the offer, Uncle CC is resourceful.... (say it quickly, you goofy CC) Sincerely. CC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
