AliGauld Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 More masking and "You're gonna need a bigger boat." After EDSG sprayed and lightened. Tomorrow De-icing Boots and Lanolin effect. Thanks for looking, Cheers, Alistair 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Looking very tidy. That's an unusual looking demarcation line, particularly on the nacelles. Not seen one like that before but it looks great! Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to use your Sky Grey/White mix as the highly thinned grey didn't work for me the last time. 5 hours ago, bigbadbadge said: Looks absolutely lovely Alistair, great job , getting there now too.

AliGauld Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 De-icing boots and minor touch ups done. That is all drying off and when it's cooked in the heat I'll do some more masking and get the Lanolin done.

AliGauld Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 More masking up. This time for the Lanolin. I used @Dunny's mix of 60 White to 40 Sky Grey. So, yet again thanks Roger. . I'm much happier with that than I was with my previous attempt. Time for a clear coat tomorrow and then stickers again.

Ian All the pictures and film I've seen of the Mk.V have the de-icers on the outer wing edge, the tail plane and horizontal stabilisers. If I'm wrong it is an easy fix. 13 minutes ago, bigbadbadge said: Such a great feeling when the decals go on and you see it developing, looking good Alistair Chris Thanks Chris, I was hoping to get the Port and Starboard sides done as well but it's so flaming hot in the kitchen and we're off out tonight to see "Nope", so tomorrow will do.

amos brierley Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I was pleased with your model first time around, now I’m cocka-hoop. BTW thanks for that info you’ve passed on to me, I’ve bought some photos to flesh out my my modelling ideas ( future) your date line now makes sense . Also that broken finger has healed nicely. Thanks for looking ‘cockers’. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
