Wow, lots of paint! If you are going to wear through that then it would have to be Barbie in her heels walking on the finish!

Thanks a bunch guys.

As you can see, the wings are on and what a colour contrast.


Have also got the initial Sky colour applied, I used SMS PL124 RAF Sky. The next call is to start weathering and toning the colour down.

Thanks for looking in guys. Not much to show today, made a start on the weathering marking panel lines and such and over sprayed some areas with a slightly lighter shade of RAF Sky.

Thanks for calling in folks. Only did a little bit today, though it took me much of the day fiddling. I've tried to lighten some parts and have dirtied others in an effort to show much wear, not an easy task and it doesn't come out well in the pic. Anyway, she is masked now ready for the first camo colour on the upside.
