Had a few problems when it came to removing the masking for the blue nose. Some of the foil lifted.

Wing puttied and painted.
I am going for a used but not abused look as 414-151 only spent a couple of months as "Petie 2nd"

I'm glad you asked,; this is an ongoing research project to discover cognitive memories in a half crocked modeler.
I have cut out the middle-man and am both researcher and subject.

Then many guys complain about grains at painted surfaces , spilt colours or lost pieces etc.... unfortunately.

However .... sometimes, a mess is good. Especially if it is the arranged mess.

Looks good so far!

Look upon the state of the table as a positive. If you cut a piece from the sprue and it flies and hits the table, it won't bounce off and into the maw of the carpet monster. Very nice work Paul.

Seems I'm in the majority. Has there ever been a "Messiest desk" contest? If not, I propose one, and you have seen my entry!

Crimea_River · Mar 30, 2012

You have me neat, but not by much.

woody · Mar 30, 2012

Nice work Paul.

N4521U · Mar 31, 2012

I like it!

Come'in along fine Paul. The desk has character, don't tidy up on our account!

meatloaf109 · Apr 1, 2012

Thanks, one and all.
While researching the P-51's wing, I came across some excelent info from this very website from some time back.
I have used those discussions to make my wing.

Wurger · Apr 1, 2012

Looking good.
