Flaps are on. The can be positioned in any angle. Pretty cool. washes almost done. Then it’s time for a flat coat.

I understand. But if reference is lacking you have to use common sense. This makes sense.

Another thing I was wrestling was this: How would the colour be like UNDER the extended slats? Would the camo pattern stop there? Impossible to find any photographs. The only thing I have to go by is this in game footage of the Warthunder game. You can see the green of the camo stopping there. I will change this on my model.

The colours are maybe better in this light.

So. A few people noticed the red upper roundel was too far inboard. I couldn’t live with it so i stripped the wing. Resprayed the camo and reapplied the roundel. Pfff. Let’s weather the heck out of this thing now!

Somehow the distance between the code and the Bellows Uruguay is way bigger on my model than the reference. At least i fixed the spacing between the two words. I need to get this bird finished or it will end me!

Started the panel line washes. Can’t wait for some matt finish and pencil weathering…

Might as well go all out! Only needed the W/T mask for 10 decal replacements. Bought the 1manarmy mask set for the Spit mk1 for that purpose. I used one mask 10x and it’s still perfect!

Yellow leading edges painted and underwing roundels sprayed. Now i need to source a 1manarmy spitfire or hurricane mask set for the W/T stencils.

Here’s the P7111 in close up. Clearly showing the overpainted older camo scheme with three Bellows text spared out.

Nom nom nom… i’m sorry I can’t say who cut these masks for me, but theyre too good not to share.

Sprayed the P7111 serial. All masks are cut by myself sofar. MH models did reply to my reaching out. They said the inmer shapes of the letter P was deliberately postioned elsewhere on the masking sheet to prevent shifting of the mask during cutting. I guess that makes sense, but my Cricut has no issues.

Here we go again…. The Czech MH models masks for the numerals and codes prove to be uniseful. The inner shapes of the letters P are gone and positioned somewhere else on the vinyl. Looks like an error i sometimes have with my software as well. Anyhow… drew my own (again) and cut my own masks (again). I will not buy MH masks again.

Haha i know. But it’s more like yuh-roon. Anyhow: i’d respond to a loud Jer-rone just as well

Good man! The oe in dutch sounds like the ou in ‘you’.

More done.

Fuse roundels done!

Getting there.

Getting the masks in place. I love kabuki paper masks better than vinyl to start with.

Started drawing my own masks to cut them on my Cricut Maker 3. I'm cutting Tamiya masking paper. The blade cuts right through these, but with some masking tape I can keep it all together.

The MH Models masks for the fuselage roundels, underside wing roundels and tail flash are designed for the earlier versions. Not the P7111 I am making. This means a different Thickness of the various elements. I will cut my masks myself on the Cricut Maker 3.

Sprayed the upper roundels.

The Gunze Sky arrived today, so couldn’t resist painting the fuselage band.

Really happy i can have the masks lasercut for the ‘Bellows Uruguay’ beneath the canopy,

Camo is down. Found out i need to get soms fresh Gunze Sky H74 for the codes and fuse band. Hopefully i’ll get around to getting some tomorrow
