thanks mate this first coat of varnish going on
-
now that ive returned to the land of the living ive just been back at the bench, not much done but the top camo is now on
-
well here where i stand, there wont be much done i the next few days as i start nights tonight - wings painted, ready for varnish, then decals - main body is under going masking of the windows using valejo masking fluid (this is new to me as i norm use maskol) you will notice i pre painted the area black so i dont have to be 100% accurate with the masking i plan to finish each part, then when decals varnished and weathered bring the wings and body together

Thanks ive only gone and done the bottom of one wing as well, i put too much paint in the airbrush, so i did the bottom so i didnt waste it

Well once i got that far i thought id experiment further, now i have placing decals on especially the long thin ones, so ive opted to mask them and paint them and heres the result
