**** DONE: GB-65 1/48 Lim 6bis - No Propellers

[rochie]

So after carefully studying the kit instructions to identify where a a cavity was located.

After a big gulp of air I drilled a hole that allowed some .22 air rifle pellets to be dropped in and superglued in place.

I softened some sprue and squashed the end to form a plug which has been glued in place to seal the hole.

Waiting for this to set properly before sawing and sanding flush.

Thank you all.

So got the paint on yesterday.

Am not as sure about the colours now as when I tested them before I decided on this build.

But hey they are on now so it is what it is !

Not the subject but the colours i was aiming for

Good work Karl. Colours on old photos that may have been printed and digitized a few times can't always be reliable anyway.

Thanks Gents.

Got the very few decals on.
Always find it a little strange that there are no wing roundels.
