[lesofprimus]

Jeshesus Christ, those a some big fu*kin weights man....

 

[Maglar]

Haha, when I was at the store I thought the engine opening was much bigger.. had to jam em in there.. ATLEAST its not sitting!

 

[Wurger]

Nice progress here Maglar.

 

[Lucky13]

Indeed...agree with young Master Wojtek here!

 

[Maglar]

I just sprayed it.. due to my furious sanding the details in the middle body look dullcoted and terrible and missing.. BUT it does give the plane a sort of used look maybe

Hey Maglar, put it all down to experience, you're learning all the time. So the more you build, the more you learn.

Your P-38 is still looking fine! Looking forward to seeing painted pics

 

[rochie]

your doing great Maglar keep it up

 

[Maglar]

Heres some pics of the re-spray, still need to do some small areas. The 2nd pic shows the detail lost from my rage

 

[Screaming Eagle]

Shes still looking good nonetheless!

 

[Maglar]

thanks eagle! Almost there

 

[Airframes]

Nice work, and the damage doesn't look that bad.

 

[109ROAMING]

Looking good

 

[Wayne Little]

Looks good mate.... 8)

 

[muller]

Thats not damage, thats weathering! It's looking great Maglar!

P.S. I found some in progress pics of a base I built late last year, will post that thread for you soon.

 

[Maglar]

Good good.. would love to make a good base with a field crew!

 

[Maglar]

I think this piece is starting to come alive fellows.. applied glosscote, all thats left is canopy, weapons on bottom, and guns in front.. this damn metalizer is still a threat to rip but seems more promising in my hand with lacquer ontop of it.

 

[Wurger]

Looking very nice.

 

[muller]

She's looking gorgeous Maglar! You've done a great job so far

Must get me a P-38......

 

[Maglar]

Mull, yours will look better i'm sure.. but I still need to do some paint jobs on the top, but the metallic needed the coat and I couldnt wait any longer

I like the detail on the turbo-superchargers, they look very realistic.
