I thought you might have got another A-model kit by mistake

[mightymikeD]

aaaaand we're off




I was originally thinking of doing this as a Romanian but then, after gettingbrainwashed by caught up in Shaun's "OOB" Mantra, I decided to make this the box scheme: that of Uber-Posh Oberleutenant Werner Pichon-Kalau von Hofe, III (bet his mum had fun sewing his name into his undies before he went to kindergarten).
As this is a starter kit I'm also going to use the supplied acrylics.. Hu33, 31, 65 and 117.. and maybe the brush (but possibly just to stir the paint! )

Does anyone else think the pilot appears to be doing "Gangnam Style"?

Or perhaps having a Number 2........

It'll be interesting to see how those kit supplied acrylics pan out Mike. Brush painting acrylics can be a pain in the derriere*

Oui, je sais..

Mais, n'a pas peur.. je peux peindre avec des acryliques avec la meme facilitie que je parlez Francais...

[AndrewR]

Wir werden eine Bf-109E GB machen, bitte Deutsch sprechen. Keine Französisch.

Danke

But as an Irishman was responsible for me meeting my future wife, I'll let you off!

Though we are very close to the Quebec-Ontario border, we are in the Nation's Capital, which is bilingual.

So it's a choice between "The Sens suck" and "Alors! Les Sens sont la meme disastre cette annee! Pourquoi sont Bryan Murray en emploi?"

[AndrewR]

Go Sens go!

I have no idea what has been said up to this point and I can't be bothered to add another tab so I can get Google Translate running.
With regards the paints that come with the kit - don't do it. Keep them for interior parts or small areas. But don't use them for anything else. You will end up hating yourself forever and ever and ever!

Don't worry.. as usual, absolutely nothing of importance was said in any language! (and Google Translate is all-but-useless for Irish )

Aww.. they're not so bad.. when I recommenced modelling I used them a lot as my LHS (at the time) pretty much only had Airfix and Revell Starter Kits.. I obviously won't be using the four supplied paints exclusively. There's metal bits on an Emil, after all!

You will end up hating yourself forever and ever and ever!

if I can forgive myself for buying a pair of leather trousers (with laces up the sides!) in 1996, I can forgive myself anything
