Ahh hell I thought you were trying to simulate a valve cover gasket

Shes back on the table figure maybe 2/3 wks biggest part was figuring were I left off.I decided to do zilch with the engines close them up and turn her into a PRU bird with D-day Stripes.

Liking it John!

The blue is a little bright though Peter hence the reason I decided against the flash the color you see is the color. This pic is with flash

Oh hell yeah Ron that looks most Excellente!! Ron you ever watch that show Australian Tank Restoration on YT? Looks like a Nice Museum!

I like the looks of that!!

I have not built an Eduard in a while if ever and have to say this is a saaweeeet Kit! The fit is just about perfect filler was a minimum on one wing root only.The kit supplied the PE to build up the pit though being a Spit not alot to see but I did use for the first time the SG with the light worked great for the bezels.I have been back with my MM enamels of late having found that MR.Color Leveling thinner for lacquers works Frigg'in excellente allowing me to thin to a 60/70 ratio of thinner and get a good application and is reviving some of the ole paints.The camo was all applied @17psi with the draw back on the trigger set to very light spray.The camo was drawn out with a pencil one at a time hitting the pencil line 2X and filling in the area it took me about 1 1/2 to 2 hrs to paint the whole plane,the airbrush never stops moving in various patterns.I started the build last Monday after shelving it for sometime lack of interest but I think it's time to clean up those off the SOD.

That is Nice John with an excellent Finish!!

The Japanese loved to use torpedoes at night if they knew an enemy convoy was in range they would unload 100/150 torpedoes hoping for 5% hits if they got more so be it.The delivery was an arc in the direction of the enemy.

Upside down Tail now that's a bit different Mike.

Well it sure looks good and tedious Gary not my patience level though.

She came out Real Nice Rob well Done!!

Ernie yes looking good from the outside but are you working on a dogfight scene on that table?😂

I can understand that one Mike.

Scott I gave the plane about 4/5 coats of future all over and used Tamiya Brown Wash liberally with a 1/2" wide brush let it sit over night but I could of probably come back in an hour.I used the a blue Scott Towel(single layer) ever so slightly damned in paint thinner/turpentine and stroke of course with the airflow but do not stroke too long in any given spot their can be a reaction sometimes.Have Fun Stripes are 9/16"/0.5625"=18" in width for D-day and beyond.
