Nice......
what do you use to cement the glass in?
I have so much trouble with heavy glues......

Wayne Little · Mar 7, 2019

Thanks Guys,

Bill I normally use Tamiya extra thin VERY carefully.... and on the odd occasion Super glue in the right places to avoid the fogging that can come with using it.

Making a point of having a good pulse in that perfect masking Andy.
I am anxious to see the beginning of your bird's coloring.

Me encanta el trabajo limpio.

Well, left my camera at work, so no pics....been struggling with the right colours....and getting my matches right, have done the lower surface Blue...twice...as first coat seemed not quite right, added more white to lighten the colour and a bit happier...I think.
Next colour i am also wondering about as there seems to be some variation here as well to contend with.
Clearly at this point i'm not going to be done by Sunday...

Welcome to the "I must finish that model, and that one... oh, and that one Club' !!

Wayne Little · Mar 15, 2019

As i said the Lower surface Blue is done and today i started the first of the upper surface colours, the Lt Greyish Brown. couple of touch up points to deal with after putting on the brown and some how the top rear fuselage seam has split open about 30mm must have stressed it somehow. anyway reglued it and fix it over the weekend.

Base colors are ready, Wayne, ... you're about to get into some stages where you start to see that she really was always alive!

Muy bien hecho hasta ahora

Great work so far Wayne!

Wayne Little · Mar 19, 2019

Thanks guys, been busy and no internet for 4 days, so not done as i had hoped, will keep at it and finish over the next fortnight at this stage.
had a couple of fixes to deal with too.....
Pics soon.

SANCER · Mar 19, 2019

So much to continue enjoying and learning from your work Wayne.
I will be monitoring your project.

Un abrazo

Wayne Little · Mar 21, 2019

Thanks..!

Ok, think iv'e got the few issues resolved, the main one being the rear fuselage spine, will recoat it tomorrow. In the mean time i did the spinners and white wing stripes, seeing as though i need to redo the brown anyway....i can mask the white and paint over the top.

Looks great so far Wayne!

Wayne Little · Mar 22, 2019

Thanks Guys, started on the dark grey camo now....that's 1 hours work freehand spraying making sure the paint mix is nice and thin and gives a fine feathered edge.....
