    The paint shop spent the morning masking the Typhoon upper fuselage and wing for painting the darker camouflage coat. Second color coat!! Okay camouflage base coats are done. Now to mask and paint the yellow wing leading edge identification stripes!!!

    Thanks Dave for posting that as I had seen Tamiya color call outs for my WNW D-Vll when read over the instructions.I love WNW instructions as they are more like a history book than instructions!

    Looks like they are cpming along nicely. I have a Tamiya 1/35 Tiger on my build list this year!!

    Well after much research and an education on the difference between D-Day Stripes and Identification Stripes I finally painted the "identification stripes" on the bottom of the Typhoon, lol!! I've also masked the bottom so the paint shop can spray the top camouflage scheme tomorrow, lol!!!

  9. RalphSarc

    I'll be darn Cees!!! I thought they were D-Day stripes!!! Oh well you live and learn, lol!!!

    Base coat applied to the belly and getting ready to mask for D Day stripes and top base coat!! Whitewashed D-Day stripes. The paint shop will re-mask tomorrow to apply the black stripes!

    Thanks Rick for the kind suggestion I was going to display with the engine bay and car door open. I think the problem was in the canopy shape. I was finally able to get it to seat correctly!

    I love the effect but there's just something wrong with spraying black not so straight lines all over your model, lol!!!

    Thanks Brad. I enjoyed building this kit as it was great fun. Love those Tamiya tanks!!

    Well back on for a second try!! Very ill-fitting canopy to say the least. Good old Revell it's always something!! Love my challenging love affair with Revell, lol!!!
  16. RalphSarc

    Not thrilled with the fit of the cockpit canopy so removed it this morning to make some adjustment so it will fit more snug to the fuselage! It seems to teeter from the center!! Happy New Years everyone!

    Happy New Years to you also Ted! Hope you have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2015.

    Really like your frame work painting. What colors and technique did you use?
  22. RalphSarc
    Priming with my rattle can Home Depot primer revealed a problem with the canopy fit which needs a bit of filler and smoothing!! Getting ready to highlight the panel lines, seal the gear doors, spray the belly base coat and paint the D Day Stripes!

    I've seen that Revell has reboxed the Beaufighter so I'm going to pick one up at the hobby shop and do another build with current skill set! What colors did you use for the underside? I want to do the Typhoon is the two grays but can't figure the bottom? I use Tamiya paints??
  24. RalphSarc
    Fantastic review Jim!! Not in my future kit budget but very cool kit!!

    I’ve gotten some incredible deals bidding on eBay. I usually haunt eBay on holiday weekends when bidding is less active watching for deals with a few hours left on the bid!! I’ve purchased most of my vintage kits that way!!
