Yes, Alclad. Still much more shading and weathering to do..

Thnx! Here’s a pic in mid panel wash stage. The underside of this plane was bare aluminium.

Panel lines done witg a Mig black panel line wash. Matt varnish down. Now on to my favorite part: weathering.

Don’t underestimate the power of sateprikkers and styrofoam! Nice..

Loving this to the max

I read the elbow grease is on sale at Kruidvat

More masking fun.

Both kits are great. The HK kit has better fit and better after market options available. In terms of accuracy both kits are on the mark. Out of the box ZM might be better but there is hardly any after market available for it.

More masking and spraying done. Now measuring out the kreuz that goes over the engine compartment.

First markings sprayed on:

Good Question! Yes and no. I know what photo you are referring to, but my inspiration came from a different photo. Namely this one. You can see a Willy's right next to the Do-335A-12 number 112, which I'm making. Oberpfaffenhofen had numerous Do-335's on it's field when found by the US Army. Both single seat and trainers.

Hahaha! Yes! An i-Thompson 45. Well, the rear part of it for now.

The headless horsemen

More work on the jeep. Decals on. Matt coat on. Ready for washes and weathering. The figures recieved some primer.

You will love this kit...

Basic colours done. Now for the canvas and seats.

First paint on the jeep. Several shades of olive drab. The Alpine figures fit great. Masked the instrument dials with liquid mask from AK

The Jeep is lovely. The Eduard set in places challenging.

That’s amazing. Glad you framed it!

More work on the jeep...

Got the maps printed on special fine canvas. Cut them in corners so they look like carelessly overlapping maps. Might glue them with wood glue and finish overall with lacquer. The Tamiya jeep will have eduard upgrades, some resin stowage and Alpine figures.

Aaah Sint-Truiden! That’s pretty cool. I guess that means you need to build an A26!

I just ordered two Airtex fine canvas prints. You'll soon find out why.
