**** DONE: GB-65 1/72 Messerschmitt 262A-2A - No Propelles

Nice 👍
 
Great Recovery...
 
Well I'm done with the painting with no further glitches. Decal time along with a ton of teeny tiny stencils and a glass of single malt, and my readers !

Good stuff Graham. Love the tail mottling.
I over sprayed it with a light coat of a 50/50 mix of RLM 76 and flat clear. Never tried it before but it worked to soften the mottle a bit.
 
GB extension is possible ................
 
Well the extension period sure helps !The missile or rocket racks. I spent some time figuring out the best way to paint them. I thought about cutting some very thin strips of tape to mask between the rockets but it was too hard to cut strips thin enough. Then I decided to wrap thread around them in between. Pretty simple and worked not too bad !
