I had overlooked the white stripes on the wings. Looking at photos and art in "Rampage of the roaring 20's" you can see some of the a/c had them and some did not. I wonder if it was a tactical marking or sealing tape as it's on the top and bottom of the wings.

Welcome! I look forward to seeing your U-boat build.

Painting, except for a little touchup, completed. Paints are MM which I have a love/hate relationship with. The biggest problem with them, at least for me, is the pigment tends to settle out in the paint cup while painting is in progress. Can be a real PITA sometimes. Next step will be a clear gloss overspray in preparation for decaling.

Thanks Peter. I expect to finish applying the OD today. Then the camo dark green. Coming right along now!

Thanks Gaz. I'll have to overspray with a clear gloss before decaling.

Painting is underway. Only partially done right now.

New cowlings in place! Priming and painting soon.

Agreed! That certainly would cut down on the crap posted there.

I received a refund for the first one so it won't be showing up. I got the other two but will keep them as I also have a glass nosed A-20 I can use one of them on. Thanks anyway!

LOL Jeff. No, not as far as I know since they said it was a mistake. Business as usual.

I find that now I have to re-join some of my Groups plus re-send friend requests to some folks.

I'm out of FB jail now. Their explanation for locking me out was "It was a MISTAKE"! UNFRIGGINBELIEVABLE!!!

I finally received a cowling set today.

Coming along Peter. Enjoyable kit to build (except for the fiddly workable metal parts).

I can't get on my FB page Harv so I can't see either.

STILL locked out! Unbelievable!!!!!!

Thanks Gaz!!!!

Thank you! Yes, they will be closed.

Progress. (Click on the pictures for sharper images.) For some reason the interior green is still showing a yellow tint in the photos. Go figure.

Thanks Gaz. It's my own mix.

I'm asking myself the same question Jeff.

I still haven't been able to get this sorted out. I had (according to THEM) requested too many text codes to get in contact with whoever handles this sort of thing. My cell phone wasn't set up for texts so I wasn't able to get the "codes" they sent. So they locked me out for 24 hours. It's been more than that now but I'm still locked out. I went on and changed my cell "plan" to include texts so hopefully I'll be able to receive any "code" they might send. What a PITA!!!!!

Yes Gaz, I agree. That is a big reason I stay with it.

LOL guys! I will try to get whatever it is resolved today but if they aren't "nice" I am considering giving 'em the boot. This is the first time my account has been suspended but not the first time to have problems with my page. I still think it should be re-named "FARCEBOOK".

Thank you Peter. I very pleased that you like it.
