Doras Galoras - Unofficial GB

[Wayne Little]

BLACK 10 2/JG26

extra gloss coat done yesterday to seal the decals, this really allowed the faint lines of the overpainted Gruppe Bars to show through, happy with that....Flat coat applied today!

 

[vikingBerserker]

That is going to be a real stunner.

 

[Crimea_River]

Already is. What a beauty Wayne!

 

[silence]

Wowzers!!

 

[Wayne Little]

thanks for stopping by Fellas! I'm liking it too...

 

[Wildcat]

Perfection!!

 

[T Bolt]

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Guys, worked on prepping the undercarriage stuff today...should be able to paint the bits tomorrow.

 

[Gnomey]

Great work so far Wayne!

 

[Wayne Little]

Still plugging away even though time has been a bit short this week....prepped and painted the undercarriage legs and tail assembly bit more work on them and then she will be up and standing....

 

[Wayne Little]

Aw crap...double post....

It suddenly occurs to me that if I keep checking out Wayne's Dora that I'll end up saving a lot of money by just giving up on modeling personally. He must have like a half-dozen arms and hands to do all that to that degree of wow-ness.

Don't you dare give up...

No....only 2 arms and no magical powers....

Attached the main undercarriage and tail wheel today....pics tomorrow!

Some undercarriage work....

The Gun barrels are dryfitted at this time, I removed a portion of the thick molded barrels keeping only the rear portion that sit in the back of the bay these were drilled out before fitting so the brass cannon would be more to scale when fitted through to slot into place and line up correctly with the rear section.

Aw, bugger I just realised that I forgot to add the springs to the small links attached to the undercarriage retraction arms...

 

[Gnomey]

Excellent work so far Wayne!

 

[A4K]

With Hugh there!

Spring or not, looks real nice. The 190A-style wheel wells would bug me though being the pedantic pr!ck that I am.
