Wolfgun33 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 The weathering looks awesome. Great work. Honestly, I would leave it. That's just me though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

xavi84 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 The weathering on this looks great! And that's just a small problem compared to the things you've had go wrong on this build. It should't be any trouble at all to fix it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 I love building models until it comes to exhaust and canopies. No matter what I do and how hard I try to make things work I always manage to mess something up on them. This time was no different. I am not sure how people come up with what looks like flawless canopies but this is a joke. I actually thought I masked this one off really good. Till I took the tape off and it revealed an uneven line and over lap in places. I tried to put the weather seal in but I think I will paint over it and not even worry about it. This is the first time for many things for me on this model and this canopy is no different. I even had the Eduard masks and didn't use them because not only do I not know how to use them but I thought I could do a better job with tape. Next time I will use the masks. I only have a few things left to do on this thing and its done. But this canopy is going to drive me nuts if I don't fix it. I'm not even sure if I can fix it to be honest with you.

Wolfgun33 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I too have the same problem with canopies. The Eduard masks are easy to use though. You could take a sharp toothpick and clean the painted areas of the canopy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xavi84 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Instead of the "Texas Group Build" this should have been called " What ever model you are working for this group build will be the most difficult model of your life group build". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 LMAO @ xavi84 I cant stop laughing thats a good one though. So true. I guess its not the end of the world for this thing but it just makes me mad that I can do so well on the rest of the model and then the canopy is just Blah. I don't know I may got some more work done tonight on it but I leave fro Utah tomorow and I will not be taking that thing with me. I might take the Prowler though. Do something different for a while.

LMAO!!! Well I can't say that mine has been the hardest....well ok, maybe a little cause I've never used PE before. Course I haven't gotten to the paint job on mine either.
