    Ugh, I went down to the bench this morning looking to mask off and spray the second colour for the upper camo. After I finished masking off the paint from yesterday, I realized that I used the wrong colour. The areas I painted were in RLM 75 instead of 76. Or is that the other way around? Or was it supposed to be RLM 74? Anyways, I stripped the masking and I've painted the correct sections of the plane so hopefully will try again tonight.

    Thanks Dale! Maybe third time's the charm?

    The nice thing about spraying Mr Color is how fast it dries. I've managed to start on the upper side camo.
  4. BlrwestSiR
    Nice! How did you bend the tubing without it crimping?
  5. BlrwestSiR
    That's what I used. The lighter shades are AK Real Color RC060 Dunkelgelb oversprayed and undersprayed and generally sprayed around.

    Wasn't there a Daytona 24 hour race car that was duck taped back together after a crash and still finished the race? Maybe the Prius owner is going for an homage?

    Sometimes you gotta love the humour in things. https://www.cp24.com/mobile/news/trafficking-supect-in-hamilton-hit-with-non-essential-business-fine-1.4875724

    Getting there Harv. I've come across a few kits where they make you slice off rivets or numbers from a sprue and glue them onto other bits. I think I tried it once and gave up. But that was in 1/35 so the rivets were much tinier. Carl

    Thanks Ernie! I've sprayed the yellow panels on the underside. Once that's dry, I'll start on the upper side camo. Carl

    Thanks Harv! One more step done. The decals are on. All 5 of them. My kind of decal count.
  11. BlrwestSiR
    I'd say the F-16 as well. Carl

    I got lazy and used decals for the fin flash. Worse than lazy, I used the kit decals... Hopefully this doesn't bite me in the butt too much.
  13. BlrwestSiR
    Some nice progress there Harv.
  14. BlrwestSiR
    It certainly is. Will have to see about stocking up again once it's safe.

    Still working on the GT-R.

    Not sure on that one. I've got two boys, 9 and almost 7. They've been out of school for 2 weeks already. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal for me as a stay home dad. I'd just take them to the park or a movie or some other attraction. The problem is they're all closed. Thankfully we have a backyard and deadend laneway they can play in. But it's getting tough though. Carl

    Good news! Cleaning up around my bench I found the missing canopy section. So this should be back on the bench soon. Carl

    Ok, I've joined the turret and hull.  Next up are decals and some weathering.
  19. BlrwestSiR
    Stunning detail! Carl

    Anyone know if there are AM bulged bomb bay doors available for the HK Lancaster? I'm looking to do the wartime VR-A Lancaster and it had the bulged doors. Failing that, if anyone know of some plans available I may give a try at making some. Thanks, Carl

    Somehow I completely missed that you were building the two seater. I thought for some reason this was the night fighter variant. Anyways, nice job on fixing the moulding defects. Carl
  22. BlrwestSiR
    That's a very impressive looking cockpit Ernie. Are you going to paint it?
  23. BlrwestSiR
    StuG?
  24. BlrwestSiR
    The more I see of this kit, the more I'm liking it. It's definitely got the correct way to PE bits. Carl

    It's an easy mistake to make with Tamiya being the Japanese distributor for Italeri and re-boxing many of their kits.
