JohnB Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 While waiting for the paint to dry on the Tamiya Spitfire Mk IX I'm going to proceed with another 1/48 Jug build. I'll use Thundercals on this one too (no sense in letting those nice decals just sit in the stash). 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinM Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 You going to spice up some panels John?Will be a stunner either way. I have often thought John one could change some of the panels after the black base to a smooth grey primer/paint(buff) and spray with one color and see if the tone changes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might work well Kevin. I did some perusing of photos of NMF Jugs before I did the last one and decided there just didn't seem to be a lot of that. At least not in the photos I looked at. Certainly not like on P-51's. We'll see, I might decide to do a little something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
