Kingoalie Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Here's my entry. It's the good old Airfix 1/72 BO-105C. It'll be in German Arme markings. I just started painting the interior tonight John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Moore Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Hi John, Welcome aboard! I believe this is the only BO-105 to be submitted. I look forward to seeing it completed! Cheers, Alby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingoalie Posted May 6, 2006 Author Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) I've got the cockpit done. I tried to simulate some of the guages by using tiny drops of paint. It's not the greatest, but it looks better than the blank square that was there before. I used small strips of masking tape for the seat belts.

RotorheadTX Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 John, the belts look very good. How are you doing the buckles?? TIA Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingoalie Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 Thanks for the comments guys. Tony-I just painted a little area on the belts with Tamiya's Metallic Grey. It works for me, and it looks the part. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dandog Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 That kit must be tiny I've got the Revell 1/48 one and that's still pretty small. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kingoalie Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 Well all the major painting is done. I still need to do some detail painting. Then I can apply a gloss coat and if I can find some decals that haven't yellowed , decal it! John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kingoalie Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) Well, it's finished. I leave tomorrow morning for Air Force ROTC Field Training at Maxwell AFB, AL tomorrow otherwise I would have spent a little more time on the finish and weathering. Oh well, at least it is done before the GB ends:) Here's the link click John Edited June 28, 2006 by John King Quote Link to post Share on other sites
