Looks like I probably wont finish the build before the GB finishes.

I just applied the first few coats of orange-yellow, and the color is a real bastard to paint with. It's on a bit thick now, so once it cures, I'll need to give the whole aircraft a light sanding, and apply a second thinner coat.

Slooooooowwwwwwww.....

James, I never told you that I cook and model in the same place? Sometimes my wires get crossed.

Tonight for dinner we had RLM02 soup ;)

My soups are mostly of the RLM 80/81 type , could be any colour, with any ingredients in them :)

Ralph, now with cowling on it looks more like a proper and civilized plane :). Judging by the airbrush cup you're shooting with Paasche? I have exactly the same bottle with old single action one.
