Somebody mention cash, free house and car? - I really like German cars so I hope it's a Mercedes, BMW or a Porsche. Does the house have a swimming pool?

[Marek]

That would be in HO/OO perhaps

[Ian]

Having found a free 30 mins this afternoon I now have the stencil decals on.





Next job is the wash. And yes, I know I need to put some more white on the spinner.

[ShaunW]

Nice one Ian, did you find the decals to be OK to use? What sort of wash are you going to apply?

[Ian]

Shaun, the decals were fine. No problems at all. Did you have a problem with yours?
The wash is pro modellers dark wash. But not too heavy as I want this to look fairly clean.
Matt-cote is next. Then add the exhausts, wing balances, cannons and aerial pole. And prop.

[Dirkpitt289]

Well done. Looking good

[Ian]

Matt Cote drying!



Nearly there!

[ShaunW]

Nearly done and looking very smart Ian.

I didn't have any bother at all with the decals, which went on very well and gave no adverse reaction to my preferred Microscale decal solutions. I just asked out of interest as I might have been lucky. For instance, I think everyone else in this GB managed to get a decent fit of the engine cowling out of the box but somehow I loused it up and the thing is loaded with filler

What's the big wing creeping into shot there belong to?

Check my Spotted Cow thread in the B-17 GB

[AndrewR]

Looking good.

[Marek]

Progressing very fast and into a good model indeed.

[theconfidencestoat]

Very nice Ian

[Ian]

A little more progress. The prop is on and I've unmasked.




Which just leaves the gun barrels, wing balances and aerial pole to add. And the exhausts.
I'll try to get this finished either this evening or tomorrow morning.

[ShaunW]

That is looking excellent Ian - last hurdles now!

[Dirkpitt289]

Nice work. It looks fantastic
