Thanks for your comments Guys.

Sundays painting of the second upper surface colour RLM 81, again this colour took a little over an hour of careful airbrushing.

Currently spending lunch breaks at work doing the panel lines, and will probably need a few little touch ups here and there next weekend before the gloss coat goes on.

Hey Charles, I use an Aztec 430 Dual action.
Iwas thinking about your little accident, today.... when I put my 262 down on a carton as I was leaving work a gust of wind blew the model box off the carton, ****! as it landed on the concrete floor.... no damage thankfully.
I will need to do a light touch up on the lower surface blue grey on the weekend , but so far I'm happy with the progress.
 
That's fantastic!

Here is my latest model. I finished it finally this evening. An out of the box P-39 in 1/48 scale. It's my first P-39, and it's called "Hells Bells," with a punching chicken slogan. Of course the blury look hides the defects. Except that it wasn't weighted right!!!

It's sister P-40 is still in the making.

The first three photos are mine, but the fourth is of a more experienced modeler's "Hells Bells." I have to thank him, for his plane gave me some tips, especially in painting.

Yup, old Monogram. I trying to do all the five main USAA fighters, and picked monogram. Tamiya, whoow, you gotta be real careful with those. But I hope to do a Blue Nose P-51 sometime.
 
Thanks, Wayne..... I'm considering getting back into model airplane building.
I'd like to try a R/C plane (w/o retracts) like a Ryan ST or the STM. I'm
going to look this week-end. Will look for a air-brush while I'm at it.
