Rotorman Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 (edited) Ok more photos.. I will not add the chain link fence in front of the building but will use the gates, it looked too crowded with the fence. Edited April 9 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
USMCVet Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Kind of a shame the fence didn't fit in - it was really nice. You sure do great work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rotorman Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 Started on the building. i used Grey primer first then shading in flat black and red brown, sanded smooth before the flat white coat. 2 thin coats Flat white then applied Vallejo Grey white and more smooth sanding. I will let this dry for several days before applying the flat red squares. I did not want to push the shading too much at this stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 (edited) Well that did not work Red Paint bled all over the white. I used wide Tamiya tape but I believe it was a bit old. I will try to clean that up the best I can. Edited April 18 by Rotorman Quote Link to post Share on other sites

USMCVet Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Sure shows the precision you use in your building - and your ability to visualize. I notice the grillwork you put in that vent too. Not and inconsiderable task and very few modelers could pull it off. You are an artist! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had a lot of paint bleed so I had to retape every square and repaint...it was time consuming. Still have to paint the edge around the building in concrete. I am looking for photos to see how much weathering I need to do on the building. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Youngtiger1 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Nice but shouldn’t the base sign be facing away? All signs I have ever seen are facing opposite to the field so the inbound traffic will know what they are approaching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
