Evening.....didn't want to hijack Fenlanders topic, so I'll post here instead.


Monica, thank you for that, I just used Tamiya paints as per the instructions. As I'm starting again, I thought I would follow the instructions for once....lol.


done a bit more airbrushing today, Exhaust - thought I;d have a go at blueing and carbon fibre.

Did a bit more tonight.........
thought I'd assemble a few parts without glue etc to see what she looks like.........
I need to redo the disk brakes and maybe the blue exhausts.....I think I may have gone overboard !

Thanks for your comments guys.....
Monica, just a simple fade metallic blue to purple to clear orange and I have a picture to give me an idea of the finished article...
