Revell Arado E555 and escorting Horten Go229

[Johni044]

Making these for a GB elsewhere.




After initial painting




Construction could start in earnest. First on the E555



With ballast courtesy of the Royal Mint.


And the Horten



Both canopies were masked with Tamiya tape.



And brush painted using Humbrol enamels. Now a confession here, I don't have the RLM colours quoted and the Humbrol enamel equivalents are not available yet. So I used RLM 1946 (i.e. modeler's license and made them up) and then varnished them in preparation of the decals.



The decals were applied with the assistance of Revell DecalSoft which I find is a great product, and then Humbrol Mat varnish applied.

So this is the state of play with them at the moment.

Both are looking brilliant and the Arado 555 looks really awesome, definitely catches the eye!

Well done and excellent paintwork.
