I know I've been slow on updates. I've been working and here are some update pictures.

Dong attached and gloss coated.

Decaling in progress

Nice 'n shiny

Nice 'n shiny

Yeah, calls for gloss black but I've never seen a gloss black paint scheme to hold up in the field. I plan to tone it down a bit after decals.

 

[fubar57]

Semi-gloss a good option

 

[Snautzer01]

Not too much. I think post war the gloss was more obvious. Certainly on this bird.

 

[Donivanp]

Semi-gloss a good option

That's the plan

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Wouldn't have found it if it wasn't for the red markings.

Seriously though. it looks great and I do like the shiny black.

 

[SaparotRob]

Looking forward to it getting out of dry dock.

Very nice Don

 

[Donivanp]

Been slow on the updates but I've been progressing. I shot a Microscale "Micro Satin" finish. It calls for a gloss finish but I've never seen a Military gloss finish to be gloss for very long. That being said I'm not really happy with the satin finish as it should have a glossier finish. Oh well.

As in the Black Beauty, Stallion? Pony Stallion, Black Beauty, get it.

Oh I may have reached out a bit to far on that one.
