And now I'm a modelling gent and scholar

We've fixed that for you.

[ShaunW]

A Modelling Lady and Scholar no less. I'm pleased to meet you ma'am

[Sissel]

I decided to finish it anyways. Spent the last hours decalling it while watching wintersports. I did put on lots more of the smaller ones than I planned, but offcourse skipped a few.

Here you'll clearly see what Klear did, pesky, looks like oil stamps, wiping Klear while drying made it worse with the paint so I stopped




Nutrition, coffee and chocolate cake. Almost forgot to eat today.




Finished model with two hours to spare. There's lots I'm not happy with. Like paint falling off, Klear ruining a decent paint finish, front canopy slipped a little to one side while decalling, wheels etc.. I've attempted to overpaint the roundels with blue where needed, color not matching 100% and can just be seen.
That said this is all my fault, and so are the fit issues I had underway starting with interior. This is most certainly a great little kit.
And offcourse I fixed the undercarriage with the doors, thanks Ian, I probably wouldn't have noticed as you get a little blinded in a blitz.







I've had enough with decals for one day so wont finish decalling the Jetstream until tomorrow.

Great work, Sissel.. and more than good enough for a blitz.. that makes it five for you! Outstanding!

[Ian]

Great job!

[flakmonkey]

I think that looks perfectly good enough. Was this the new perfumed Klear? That seems to be very, very different to the old one, no matter what people may say.

[Sissel]

Thanks, Mike, Ian and Steve.
Hehe no, it's the old Klear. Next time I'm using this paint I will try coating with Humbrol gloss varnish, will offcourse try a test piece first.

[Gregers]

Great work Sissel. I did one of these for the last blitz and yours certainly looks better than mine, and it certainly is a pretty good kit.

All the best.

Great work Sissel and finish number 5. I only tried Klear once a few years ago and didn't get on very well with it so I've stuck to varnish coats ever since. I must have done something wrong maybe as I know loads of modellers swear by it.

[Sissel]

Thank you Greg and Shaun.
