George Guimaraes Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 This is my view of one famous “Blue Noser From Bodney”. Neeedless to say the kit is superb, no putty at all. It seems, looking at the few pictures available, this particular bird was kept in good shape, in general. Therefore, the weathering is subtle, but I decided to add some dirt as it would be expected operating from those muddy airfields in England. PE and canopy masks from Eduard. Cheers!

Fuselage and wings were painted with automotive paints, far more resistant than model colors. Fine aluminium for the fuselage and high speed aluminum for the wings, since these were not NMF.The blue color was a mix of Aqueous Gunze H328 (Blue), H25 (Sky Blue) and H11(Flat white) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
