  1. Photobucket didnt screw up I did. I deleted the photos from my album to make more room not realising that they would be deleted from here as well, a rookie mistake!! I've still got all the photos in a file on the computer though. Sorry for the inconveniance, there are however pics of the finished model in the finished projects section.

    The finished model looks fantastic! Is there anyway to get the WIP pictures in order to learn from the master! Phenominal work Sir. Best wishes.

  2. You stated "Despite being painted in a late war scheme, Yellow 5 had an older style spinner. No spiral or white segment, just overall blackgreen RLM71. I used the Testor's 71 which seemed a bit too light, so I added a few drops of black to the mix. Once it was dry, I used a very fine section of stretched sprue to add some silver scratches to the blades and the spinner." Can you describe how you used the Sprue and what paint you used? Thanks
     

  3. Hi guy's this is the cockpit of the 219 from Revell. Paints used are Gunze acrylics with a little Tamiya as well. Details were picked out with Humbrol enamels. I replaced the molded levers with brass wire and white glue for knobs. I also added some fictitious wiring for added interest and used HGW's 219 belt set. I found them fairly fiddly but well worth the effort. Chips/scratches were done with Derwent coloured pencils as well as 2b grey lead. Washes with oils, dry brushing with oils as well. Testors Dull Coat for final finish.

     

    Hope you enjoy the pics cheers Bevan
