Hi,

Micro progress
But it was a very busy day:

- Sport early this morning (Japan GP practice),
- small flight just after the morning sport to enjoy this sunny day,
- housework (garden ...), but some connection with aviation!

Test fitting after some corrections





Need holes! Brassin parts don't have!!

Hi,

Thank you A4K.

Small progress on the Corsair.

I wasn't satisfy with the grey color.
Parts masked waiting for the new color.



Paint "research".

Aeromaster Blue Gray for the upper surface:





I love that paint!

Same part after post shading of Blue Grey from Gunze on the rivets + light coat of Klir + oils ( W&N Raw Umber for details, Titanium White for effects) + Micro Flat



This one after post shading of Blue Grey from Gunze on the rivets + light coat of Klir + oils ( W&N Raw Umber for details, Titanium White and Olive Green for effects) + Micro Flat



Here, just Gunze Blue Grey with a light coat of Micro Flat



Same thing for the lower surface color.
Comparison between Aeromaster and Gunze.
Heavy black pre-shade...
