Another unfinished build from this year's Classic Airfix GB

 

This one is a golden oldie, boxed by Craft Master for the American Market

It's had a first coat of Light Grey Green, which whilst looking a rough as a Badgers posterior should look ok after a few more coats.

Hi Pat,

I am really impressed by the quality of your painting skills.

The finish of the light grey is splendid. Not an easy feat to achieve.

Well done mate.

PS: For the masking of the canopy, take a deep breath, close your eyes, and go!

The Dinah is a sleek looking plane. Looking good!

       Yeah, when we were kids (55+ years ago) my younger brother had one of these. I thought it was one of the best-looking aircraft. So recently I did two of these in a blitz-build, one 1/72 kit as above with very similar boxing/art and one 1/600 scratch-build. Please carry on @JOCKNEY, I'll be watching.

Regards, Jeff.

Unfortunately looks like the tape has leaked a bit

And yes only after I took the picture did I notice the paint on the tyre now fixed :like:

 

Oh and I've used that unusual Airfix stand
