2996 Victor Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Hope you're feeling better now - sounds like you've been through the mill! Great to see some progress on the Buffalo, too - looking great with some paint on Cheers, Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I'm glad this popped up again, making as I am the Matchbox one in the Matchbox GB & at the stage of interior detailing, such as I can be bothered. I've definitely been lacking inspiration till I saw this & realised I have one of those Pavla sets & should be able to at least get some ideas from it, I'll save the set for one of my Hasegawa kits though I think. I'm impressed at how well you've got it to go into the Airfix one. 👍 Steve. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a similar build planned for the Matchbox GB, and while I don't have the Pavla set I'm following both Bill's build here and yours on the GB for inspiration!

Best I get a wriggle on, expect some more action this week, now I can see my through the dreaded cockpit impasse. Have I ever said how much I hate cockpits?

Bill Davis Posted February 7, 2022 Author Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) I probably should have painted the cockpit, interior green, instead of aluminum. The area behind the pilot will need to be painted and I doubt it is aluminum. Well, too late now.

I think that for a NEI machine, aluminium is correct, I'll try to dig out the reference I found when I get home later on. Steve. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Davis Posted April 18, 2022 Author Share Posted April 18, 2022 I just about got this plane painted. I just need to spray the landing gear. I made the roll bar out of wire. Next, is gloss coat and decals. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I never did dig out that reference, sorry. Looks like you've done pretty well all the same, that is looking good. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
