ICM 1/48 He-111 H-6 N.Africa campaign-Finnished
KevinM replied to KevinM's topic in Everything Ukraine Group Build
Oh Yeah by the way ICM did not provide a swastika so that one was supplied by Trumpter from a 1/24 scale Me-109 kit.The pic that Martin through up in the beginning of the post make it look about the right size. -
ICM 1/48 He-111 H-6 N.Africa campaign-Finnished
KevinM replied to KevinM's topic in Everything Ukraine Group Build
Decals have been applied I know we like thin but man some of these were just to thin I lost several.I have several mistakes in the paint all on the undersides 1) the white under the wings went one panel to far inboard.2) the white band on the tail is 1/16" to wide hint the "A" hit the white centering the "Z" and 3) the RLM 78 was to go much lower between the wing and tailplanes live and learn.I think when done 9 out of 10 people will never notice those mistakes so I march on.I made up the colors for the props,bombs and prop covers. -

Hang it get a 1/48 or 1/72 Spit MkXVI hanging back in the distance with them connected by 2lb fishing line.I would use the corner opposite from the door heading for the door just an idea.it does look good and big it is. -

Thks for the comments guys I am actually having fun now for I feel some success is happening.I went through with the Sand on the rest of the bottom of the plane including the white then I added a bunch white almost pink and did the top wing,tailplanes and spine I likee toned it down some more one touch-up.I then went back over the bottom with 78 and white to blend . -

So I went back over the upper surfaces with the 1942 Africa Sand toning it down a little more about as Far as I go.The bottom sides I used a M.Grey for the panel lines one side I went back over with the RLM 78 better than the other I like the heavier coat but notice I used some sand on that side also blow up the pic me likee!I stopped on the other side knowing I am going to sand the L/S and the R/s some more and go back w/78 and do the white also.The top once the decals get laid I will use some pastels from Tamyia I hope it works any tips on Rob,Gary etc. mucha appreciated. -

This aspect of weathering is new to me but it looks like it might just work.I primed with Tamy 1200 and painted upper with Africa Sand 1942 MM and the lower RLM 78.I then panel lined with Italian Sand MM and blotted inside the panel a little on upper surfaces and kinda hard on the sides of the fuselage.The next clor was yellow zinc in the panels with some frosting overall not alot mainly tailplanes nothing is precise.The last color was white all upper surfaces first in the panels then a little more of a frost than the yellow.I will lay the Africa 1942 tomorrow night after work see you then. I couldn't wait I might of been a bit heavy on the last coat we'll see after the gloss is laid more weathering to come on top. On looking at the pics I think next time no panels maybe just the colors save a wash for the panels might allow the other colors to come through since you are not trying to cover the panel lines? -

With the Fuse in hand Peter their are notches in the wing root area for the spares to lay into when I did the r/s I barley intersected the fuse w/spar and I must of checked the fit 10X it was perfect.I guess I was tired that night wanted to let the fuse sit overnight to dry and it did for days all's good now.
