I have to agree with you on that one John but it could be one of those things were practice makes perfect the ole eyeball learning the trade?I may give it a shot a few times but if I get no better............

So here's my first attempt at using production mask and by Montex.The event is a bit time consuming for me but give it that it's my first rodeo.The "P" was positioned about 1/8" to low and the "stars/bars" about a 1/4" to high got to redo it no bigee.Gary the mask pulled off some OD over some grey I call it my mistake it had been painted literally 45 mins earlier me impatient I say.I do not know if anybody has used this Mr.Color re-conditioner but the stuff is excellente. I brought back some MM Insignia Blue tonight that just about ready for the trash can.I am off tomorrow night will give it another crack I do like the effect!

Nice looking Cat Scott!!

Thanks Martin and Dennis I am just glad to have it done.

That's a model in itself Hubert Nice Work

That came out real Nice and the weathering is superb something I often live in fear of,

I have the ole Revell in the stash started making an interior years ago I might give it another go Hubert seeing what I accomplished on this one. I am glad it's finished Peter but I need to go back and repaint the old antenna location Dr.Brown it's a Bakelite type insulator for the antenna. Thanks Gary she is Purrrty! Thanks Rob!I will look into those by Mr.Color since I starting to acquire some of there paints.

Thanks for the tip Gus do you think it be wise to coat with a future clear maybe?

Prayers for You and the Wife and the Good Lord looks over you both.🙏

I started this one some years ago have lost the front windscreen 2/3 times and found it again(thought I would graph the Hase).This will be my first time using mask for the letter code and insignia provided by Montex.I usually keep my fighters clean but this girl gets the full layout 500lb bombs with rocket launchers(Hasegawa).I have only three unfinished kits after this from the SOD.

Where's the plastic!

Coming along Quite Nicely John!

Same here Gus Nice details though.

Time to hit the cabinet with this one fellas.I will never ATTM use a liquid mask (suggestions anyone) it was a bear to get off the ALL the glass were it was applied.I had to use alcohol to remove and then polish everything with Mequiars added another 2/3 hrs of work.I like her was an enjoyable kit over all much like the B-25.The next one to hit the desk is another off the SOD a 1/32 Trumpter P-47 D Montex

Find it here:

Nice gear and a really Nice box Pete

That sucks John.

I have been looking for a He-111 keep checking back not listed or already sold.

The aesthetic's of the build is what 99% of the people see and nothing more.

Fuel Tanks painted,Cleared and Stripes revealed.

Thks Harv a long time gett'in there

I have finally got some paint laid boys and I think it looks pretty close to PRU Blue not exact but their seemed to be some variances even back in the day.The first pic wasa Soviet blue but said not quite to much baby blue so looked at some more color chips and pics.The second pic is the same blue with about 25% intermediate blue needed a little grey introduced.The last pic is off the net and we do not if the color has been saturated or not.

Carl is just a really good gloss black thinned down right?

Have to agree with Craig over at MSW about that Rob not just the size but color looks wrong to "ME".I have worked 43 yrs in the Auto industry much of it retail but had 7 yrs in a machine shop throwing engines out on Friday seeing them on the track Saturday Night. That's why I do not comment real hard on the auto builds I'm burnt.

Nothing really John just that most companies in 1/32 have a heavy representation on my Tempest that had maybe 50/70% present.While I hate doing stencils for the most part when they are there make it look busy just abit of a PIA.
