The Spadgent Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Looking sharp. I can’t believe you got a bleed. She was masked within an inch of her life. 🙃 you’ll sort out that little glitch though. 🤛 Johnny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nav lights painted last night and touch ups Fnar. Gloss varnish just now. Allow to dry this afternoon, I have a friend visiting but may get the decals on tonight. Not many of them either. Stay safe.

Thanks @AliGauld, @ModelingEdmontonian, @Hamden, @john-w, . Right, I didn`t get to put the decals on last night but this morning instead. Into the airing cupboard now to dry off quicker. (the model that is). Stay safe. Simon. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @ModelingEdmontonian, @john-w, And @Hamden. OK folks, nearly there. Goss sealing coat on. Then the Black Wash. Underside. I just wanted to keep it subtle. Allow to dry before sealing and finishing. Stay safe. Simon. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookytooth Posted March 19, 2022 Author Share Posted March 19, 2022 Thanks @pabbi, @ModelingEdmontonian, @giemme and @Hamden. Right, U/C on and wheels fitted. Prop fitted now. That just leaves pitot and mast to fit after matt varnish, which will be tomorrow now. Also I have the canopy to hand paint. Stay safe.

Afternoon peeps, and the final instalment. Matt varnish on. Canopy painted and mast added. I am calling this one done now. I decided not to post in RFI as it`s not good enough. But the practise it has given me is invaluable to say the least. A rare view. Cleared and nearly read for the next build, the Mustang... Everybody stay safe.

ModelingEdmontonian Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Love it. I've posted worse in RFI 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Coombs Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 That was a very fine save after the tribulations of getting the wings to fit. Are you going to paint the red and white on the tail leading edge where the decals didn't quite meet? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliGauld Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 An excellent result, Simon. It's worthy of an RFI due to the trials and tribulations involved in achieving a super build. Cheers, Alistair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spadgent Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Lovely looking Hurricane. It’s a shame she won’t get an RFI. Well worth it to my eye. 👏🙌👏 Johnny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
