Bill looking good,do'nt you just love masking canopies

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

I actually didn't mask my canopy. I painted with a brush free hand. I just used a chisled wooden match afterward to take off the excess paint.

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

Well I've done more work on the paint job. No more air so the rest is with my art brushes. The two photos are a kind of before and after using Isopropyl Alcohol. The stuff is great as a flattening agent. As for paint, it does lighten the color down a notch. I realize that it may be hard to see the difference but there is a difference. What do you guys think?

 

[Crimea_River]

The difference is subtle but it is there for sure. Looks good Bill!

[Night Fighter Nut]

Well I'm back at it. Finally put the last vent or grating on and added most of the decals. I still have a ways to go but there is light at the end of the tunnel. I still need to add a few things but mostly I'm doing the final detail work that I put off until I got the outside painted. All but the first photo were taken outside. It seemed like a nice day and I wanted to see what it would look like in sun light instead of florescent light. I know that lighting can play tricks on what the color actually is. I'm quite pleased with the last shot.

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

Sorry, took a couple of other photos and forgot to upload them. The last one is similar to the prior posting but actually is leveled better.

 

[Airframes]
