Micha Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 (edited) Hi guys! I'm new to the forum. I came here on the search for some PEPSI decals of my next Concorde model (and yes, I already found the thread) This is my very first model aircraft which I finished last week. It's a Concorde in 1/144 by Revell. Actually, I wanted to build the Air France Concorde of Sinsheim, Germany where I've been this summer but there were no Air France decals inside the package ... so I just build the New Yorker Concorde I read the topic about the free picture hosts ... yes ... I got my own web-server and I installed a picture gallery. But I guess, my photos are a bit too large for the board So please take a look at > the G-BOAD gallery if you want. greetings Michael from Germany PS: Thanks guys for this great board!

daz greenwood Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 A very nice Concorde you have there! Sorry I can't help with decals though as airliner's ain't my thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 If you managed to brush paint the whole thing in white i think you did a very good job! Thanks for posting and welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micha Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 thanks =) well ... I'm a beginner ... I guess, I'll buy some paint brush set soon The color wasn't thin enough as my Father told me later. He's a model aircraft builder for more than 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovis Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Welcome to the forum Micha For a beginner, and for a brush painted finish those pics are terrific I can't wait to see what you're like with some experience!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theplasticsurgeon Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hi Micha, Great looking model there. Modellers are going to tell you that white is one of the most difficult colours to paint - especially with a brush. A little tip here - white appliance white acrylic aerosol from Halford car spares store. You've probably got equivalents in Berlin: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/...tegoryId_165505 And here are Concordes that I've built with that white paint As you can see - no Air France So I should still have those left over - if you build another Concorde.

Micha Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 thanks for all the praise =) And thanks for the tip of the white spray! At the moment I'm building an old Interflug IL-62 in 1/100. I hope, this plane will look a bit better when it's finished But the next Concorde has already started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
