modelhound Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Please excuse my but-in-ski here, but, the props on this flyer were painted silver lacquer. I know that doesn't seem right, but that's what they were. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probable repainting to occur tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theplasticsurgeon Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Just returned from a week in Timerife - hence no updates. Painted the props dull aluminium last night. I've been thinking about the base for this model, and pinched 3*35mm film canisters full of sand from my beach, to replicate the surface of Devil Hills. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
