Here is another little update.. I got some paint on the ole girl..




As you can see from the last pic I have some touch ups to do the gray with a little high in a few places on the wings and tail section..

The next pic is off the underside


The paints I use are Tamiya XF-3 for the yellow around the engines covers and XF-62 Olive Drab for the top half and on the bottom half I used Model Master neutral gray FS 36270 not sure if the XF-62 and FS36270 are the right color but I kind off like it.

The frame must look immaculate when you strip off the masking tape. Not long left now.

Well the Decal crew finally showed up to apply the decals.. They had a bugger off a time the decals were very thick they used a barrel off micro sol but they turned out pretty good.... I think?







Can't make out the decals on the bombs but there is 4 decals on each bomb


That's all for now going to give a go at weathering.

LOOKIN AWESOME!!!!

[Rodney]

Well I had a go at the weathering.. I might have over done it on some parts and the pictures make it look worst then it really is.. Here are a few pics its doesn't have a flat or matt coat of clear on it yet..










The wash I use was one I made from ideas from Coen or Master Coen vids on u-tube its just model master black with loads off thinners. I have to say first time doing anything like that and I think I did ok but I did over do it on the chipping (sliver paint).

Well here she is with ALCLAD klear kote matte over the weathering and decals I really like the ALCLAD line off paints.

Here we have the mechanic giving the pilots a hard time about the waist guns




Nose art


Here we have the pilot having a go at the mechanic for the engine leaking so much oil


Here we have the mechanic telling the pilot he added new guns to the nose


and this is what we would of seem if we saw the ole girl flying over head..


There she is all done

[Bissyboat]

Well done. She´s a classic beauty.
