David Walker Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 It really stands out with the non-Luft markings. Is the spinner a decal or painted? Either way it looks great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeMaben Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 Thanks alot fellas. Wie gehts Chris The exhaust shields are the kit parts after some scraping and filing. I also shortened the overhang on the port side as I thot it covered too much of the exhaust per many photos I looked at. Hey Dave, the spinner was quite a project in it's self. First I glued the backplate on with temporary glue (Microscale Liquitape) then chucked it in my old dremel and reshaped it to look more pointy like it should. I drilled out the cannon and replaced it with a piece of aluminum tubing for the blast tube. I painted the spinner black enamel so I could remove any booboos I made with the white acrylic later. I needed veerrry thin strips of tape to conform to the compound curve so I laid down 2 real thin strips, one for each side of the stripe then brush painted Aim toothpaste (gel) between them and shot the white. It worked pretty well and I only had a coupla places that needed fixing. Then shot it with several coats of MM clear flat and gloss mixed for a semi gloss sheen and to level things out. Not really difficult, just tedious. Mike a b e n ...thanks again all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
