Bob, Coming on very nicely.

Cheers Paul.

I like the look of this, lots.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Colin.

Think I'm going to get it gloss varnished tonight and leave it at that. I'm aching all over today after spending all of yesterday shooting a CSR competition.

Looking very nice Bob

 

[Steve Brodie]

nice

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers gents.

I gave it a gloss coat yesterday so should be able to get on with the decals tomorrow.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

147 decals later, and there's still more to go on the missiles and fuel tanks.

[flyjoe180]

Great work so far Bob, lots of stencils!

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Joe. Yeah, one or two.

 

[Steve Brodie]

That finish looks awesome dude

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Steve.

I've got an M40 gun carriage build coming up after this one and I think I might try the black basing technique again. Should add some interest to an otherwise green paint job.

I Have an Eduard 1/48 ME109 (black primed), Eduard Hellcat and Tamiya Mustang (both in various stages of build) to try this technique on :-)

Fantastic paintwork. You may have inspired me to take mine off the shelf of doom and finish it!

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Dave.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Started the weathering tonight.

Normally I'd use an oil or enamel and do a pin wash, but this time I decided to try a Flory clay wash.

I was pleasantly surprised. Easy to use and I think a nice result.

 

[Steve Brodie]

Thats looking brill, yep the Flory washes are great
