It'll definitely pay off in the end Glenn. Looks really good.

Thanks Andy. More windows to mask, then the landing gear bays, and I hope to have some paint on this weekend.

[Wayne Little]

good job, those masks are a real time saver!

 

[Airframes]

That's a lot of masking! Good job Glenn.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

That looks good Glenn and like you I do love the masks, is it me or is the Eduard masking thinner and more flexible than the Tamiya tape. Also I don't throw away the leftover bits, there handy little bits to have.

 

[T Bolt]

Thanks guys, and Vic I agree those masks and thinner and at least as flexible than Tamiya tape if not more so. And I do plan to keep the leftover!

Nice work Glenn, I've always liked this aircraft and you don't see many of them built.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

With Dave - good on ya Glenn! (Love that 110 too..)

I finished the masking, and sprayed the framing RLM 66 then painted the underside RLM 65.
Also found a new rule if you spray with an airbrush while wearing a respirator:
DO NOT LEAN OVER THE AIRPLANE AND LET THE RESPRATOR'S EXAUST VALVE DRIP ON YOUR WORK!
Had to wipe off one wing and start over, but all worked out OK.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Excellent work Glenn!!

 

[Airframes]

Good stuff Glenn.

Nice model kit, post up some pictures when you finish it, I have the real engine cover from a FW 189 so I may want to paint it in the same camo colors as your finished model for display.
