Maybe some one can relate/explain but I just about fooked this one up.I was spraying Light Sheen lacquer on the plane to get ready for decals did not like the texture so buffed with 800grit scotch bright got a weathered look but not what I was going after.I decided to wipe with alcohol and it stripped to the plastic in a couple of areas I was like WTH?It has to be because it was 91% alcohol?I repainted all's good and laid down my usual Future I think I well relegate that stuff to the final fluid through the airbrush on a cleaning!!

yep 2-tone.

Hey I was thinking of doing the Revell/SH Tempest if/when the wings/wheelwells are first.

That looks Good Rob but the thread opens another question "where the Heck is Kai?"

Nice!!!!!!!!

Holy Crap Batman!!

Thanks Carl as to the weathering that I have not decided may just be a dusting and some panel lines. Thanks Gary my first mottling was thin paint extra fine needle(whole plane actually) @25psi worked real good then something happened to were I went to 18psi come out like a blob it works but I like making characters if it makes sense.I draw. Gary I like to use the extra fine tip and keep it moving non-stop in a section I like the kinda faded look not as good as another fella I know but I can accomplish this in 2/3 hours to his 10+ hours.I have a couple of pics of his work he works at high pressure Tamy Acrylics and many little dots!!

Getting close to the finish line fellas.The paints are all MrHobby lacquers and slowly learning the curve here if paint builds up on your forks of the airbrush it's to thick.I am thinking that these paints thin out like 60/70 thinner? I hope she comes through with some approval from you guys I'm thinking when all said and done she will be a smart looking crate. I think the yellow is a bit bright but no RLM04 was to be had this is Tamiya's yellow and not RLM04.

Liking the looks thus far Peter any special markings or OOB?

Yea I always thought parallel to the top and centered but look at the 2nd pic neither.

PW you are a machine Brother!!

Came out Nice!

Is that low Gary? looks normal but maybe I am guilty also?

That's looking very good Sasha mottling looks spot on.

It sure would.I am hoping some of our Aussie fellas might of had heard and verify?

A possible cure for cancer coming out of Aussie Land?I am sure the world pharma companies will try to bury this one. cancer.mp4

Hey Peter I remember right you use "Ask" mask?Do you use the interior?if so what's your thoughts whether really worth it?I have to pieces I have to use the interior since they were interior braces to glass but damn I've been masking for 2hrs and still not quite finished and much less if I go all the way with the interior. Petere went ahaead and did the inside on all ............curiosity

Same thing happened to me Ernie maybe 10/12 years ago someone whom if memory serves me right was in the medical field just went off calling it Gun Porn and it's evils.I was like WTF!?Plus you know I can build some decent stuff from time to time but really I am just a builder but I had a build with like 250 views maybe not a peep I mean not ONE?I was going it's not that bad?I told Matt to pull the thread trash can it I never posted another build there since methinks.

That came out quite Nice John.

I can see it Rob just the lighter backdrop would do it more justice that's all

Going Wasp boxart Rob never done that one before and this is my 2nd 110 in thirty years last one was a 1/72 I never finished.

I have gotten a little accomplished over the last couple of weeks been working out of town turning 10hr days into 12 but that seems to be finished for now.The cowls on the other engine a bear as much as the first requiring a little more filler than the first.....maybe I should of followed the instructions version of assembly but I hate to put on the exhaust before the paint.The bomb rack under the fuse while the holders for the sway of the bombs have locating pins no holes in the rack or were to drill I look at the pics drilled and applied.The wheels are not glued in yet just there and That's the correct angle for the main LG had to go look that one up.The copit with the Quinta's is a Nice combination worth the few extra bucks.Guys RLM02 for the main bombs can never remember for Luft A/C?I have no filler for the upper wing joint and could almost forget about the bottom but I will pay it the little attention that is needed.The build overall has been quite Nice to me I give the fit 85/90 and the instructions 75/80 with the engine nacelles being the worst part of the kit ditch the engines and drop in a plate for the exhaust would be my solution if a redo should happen.

The Soryu looks Nice!!

Fran were do I see your builds esp. the two Revells?
