[mosquitoman]

Are these old airfix paint numbers?

 

[cheddar cheese]

[mosquitoman]

[cheddar cheese]

[mosquitoman]

Very nice!
How'd you get such straight lines?

 

[cheddar cheese]

Nice 8) Maybe I should mask up my lines...naw!

 

[mosquitoman]

Ahh, good idea, I must do that on my next one when i go on holiday

 

[cheddar cheese]

[mosquitoman]

MY Lufwaffe is coming on nicely...Thats my cheap Airfield scene with the 190D and Stuka in the back ground

 

[mosquitoman]

Get some RAF men and paint them for your airfield, they fill up any space you've got on it

 

[cheddar cheese]

I dont have an airfield, just a Chest of Drawers I dont know why my B-29 will go, its rather big Gotta finish the Yak-3 first though, then ill do the B-29 and then move on to the BBMF.

 

[mosquitoman]

Which nationality airbase are you going for?

 

[cheddar cheese]

Italian 8) Currently I have 3 German planes (190D, Stuka, Komet) 2 Italian (SM.79, G.50) and 1 USAAF (P-38). Collecting the Italian planes will be quite hard but it should look quite unique when finished.

 

[mosquitoman]

In that case, research the sorts of vehicles found on an Italian airbase and uniforms first.
For men just buy some Airfix RAF men and paint them the right colours- use a cocktail stick to paint them though, you can get so much more detail.

 

[cheddar cheese]

I do actually have a very tiny brush that is about the same diameter as a cocktail stick. I will probably get the planes done first, then concentrate on a setting for them.
