Black sandpaper.

 

[Wurger]

What about the grey one?

 

[B-17engineer]

I was using it to make it a bit more smooth when finished with black .

 

[Wurger]

OK. Have you wrapped the black one around the red sanding stick?

 

[B-17engineer]

Yes

 

[Wurger]

So OK. Make the edges smooth.

 

[B-17engineer]

Pics soon!

 

[B-17engineer]

I think it looks so-so

 

[Wurger]

Looking better. But still need to be sanded. What is the spot on left from the MG barrle holes in the last pic?

 

[B-17engineer]

Not sure, I'll sand more and check what it is.

 

[B-17engineer]

Not sure what it is. Nice round of pictures

 

[Wurger]

...

 

[B-17engineer]

Glue. I got the huge lump off with the knife and sanded it down, the rest. Ok. I need to go to dinner now! Be back soon!

 

[Wurger]

OK. Bon appetit.

 

[B-17engineer]

Wojtek, I hate to go but I just got a disk cleanup notice and I can't post anymore pics for a while. So I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow. So have a great night! Talk to you tomorrow?

BTW on Saturday I will go to the hobby shop.

 

[Wurger]

No problemo...I should be on tomorrow. Sleep well.

 

[B-17engineer]

Hi Wojtek! I just saw the disk cleanup finished and thought before I sleep, I'd pose these pics..

 

[Wurger]

Looking good. But to do that as you can see in my pics with the Spitfire wing. The leading edges have to be solid at the seam area.You have to sand the front area of the leading edges firstly then a little bit from the top and then the bottom in order to keep their shape at the area. Of course you don't need to sand whole wings I 'm sure you know what I mean.

 

[B-17engineer]

Understood! Thanks so much so far for helping with my first painted model! (I built a 1/48 B-17, Stuka and a Wellington when I was 9 that no one needs to see ) I really, really appreciate it! It means a lot!

Well, I am really tired today (Very unusual) so I'm off to be early, after I finish this part of course! Goodnight! Have a great day tomorrow!!

 

[Wurger]

Do jutra.
