Hey Kevin, can we sperate ur two builds into seperate threads now??? Its getting to the point now where its gonna be necessary....

I would prefer if u make the threads, that way ur name will show under them... I'll re-title if necessary, sticky them and move some posts around....

Thks Terry but I think I am going to do the 11 plane all light blue with mottling all over ought to be interesting.Dan I will start another thread or two tomorrow.Kevin

 

[lesofprimus]

Sounds good Kev...

 

[javlin]

A little more paint tonight not much.Oh yea the radiator covers were cut out and the PE dropped in a nice little touch kinda wakes up the underside some .Cheers Kevin

very nice Kevin, found this in Jagdwaffe vol. 5 sect. 1 - Defending the Reich, 1943-44 hope its of use to you

Nice progress Kevin...

 

[javlin]

Thks again for the profile Karl.It reminded me to go back and make them a little larger on the mottling no biggee at this point still got to do my version of 74.But it shall be the 4 first today before we any other contamination of the gun.Speaking of guns I might want to go blow some stuff up at the range Thks for all the kind comments out there guys ya'll have been a big big help.Cheers Kevin

 

[javlin]

Well I got my version of of the 74 on it looks to green while the smoothness of the paint and all came out good i just do not know.I need some honest comments guys.Do I follow will be up to some thought at this point.sh%te.This was a profile that Wayne threw out there earlier maybe not as far as I thought according to the profile still alittle green.And the upper area camo was different than the profiles supplied Eagle cals.Cheers Kevin

 

[Wurger]

The 74 looks too greenish indeed But....

 

[javlin]

Thks Wojtek going by chips for sure.i guess in a lot of the profiles they are are tring to show color demarcations.I just got done looking through Squadron's Walk Around profiles there is more like mine and maybe that was in the old subsonscious.Well I take it that the still means she looks have way decent.I might start glossing before the day is over I think while not a PITA to tape off the mottling on the side might be alittle bit of a pain.I also loss a piece of plumbing on the right side engine work engine work.Cheers kevin

 

[Wurger]

I think if you make some weathering the green tonality can turn a little bit grey.

 

[109ROAMING]

Looks Terrific!

 

[javlin]

I will try that Wojtek with some gray pastels it might do the trick.Thks Kevin

 

[Wurger]

You'r welcome. I hope the idea of grey pastels will help.

 

[lesofprimus]

Looks great man, and the color is close, but I think slightly too greenish, but its close....
