I am sure they will Tony. You know, I am tempted to do something I have never done. Lightly spray the sprues with some primer. I will see how I get on after a longer session but never white plastic again lol\ said:Nice start graham the seats look nicely detailed , once theyve had a mist of primer im sure the detail will be easier to pick out. , cheers tony
This is what I did... Sprayed the 1st coat of primer on all of it whilst attatched to the sprue.... (I did however think this was how everyone did it so not my idea.)\ said:I am sure they will Tony.

It is something I never do Stuart, not saying you shouldn't just that I don't. The reason for this is that it creates more cleanup in that surfaces to be glued together should have the paint removed first. Now I know that, especially, liquid cement tends to melt through the paint anyway but there are certain areas that really need to be cleaned like where the joint is a prominent seam, such as fuselage halves etc as you need to be sure that these joins are not going to give.\ said:This is what I did...

Yes, keep up that man\ said:Fast work Graham , looking excellent too. It looks like a really nice kit -as we expect from Academy these days. I must get my J10 moving along though , everyone is leaving me behind in this GB!! cheers tony
I have gone totally trainer Tony, even the blanking plate where the gun goes\ said:There is a combat version graham the FA 50 , and the trainers will be fully combat capable too for weapons training so either the inert rounds or the live sidewinders would be ok. Tony
There is a story behind the airbrushing that I will put in another section later :oops:\ said:Very nice work on the ladder's.
And I see your new AB has paid off well.
Thanks Andrew, it has been a pain to photograph which is why I haven't done as many as normal. Once I have sprayed it white again, it will have a light wash that will enhance the detail again.\ said:Looking good graham, the detail really does pop now you've got the primer on.
Cheers, Andrew
