I have a statement for this, but I will keep it to myself and be a good boy!

Mwuahahaha! Well.... It's certainly not a pocket rocket

Is that a Dornier in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

[JeroenPeters]

Strolling along.. Pit tub is painted. (Well almost). Not getting distracted with adding too much detail. Just some Airscale placards and gauges.

I flattened the rear of the IP with green card, added the instrument housings and wiring. This will be visible from the outside.

 

[RalphSarc]

Wow looking very good!! Size does matter after all :-).

Love the scheme also. What will you mount it to??

[Wingco57]

Kicking the habit of adding too much detail isn't it.

Hi Ralph,

 

Not sure what I'll mount it on. Maybe the Tamiya Spitfire mount, but that may be too flimsy. 

 

@Cees: The thing is: there is no temptation to add details, since they don't exist yet. Yesterday I was in the hobby store and almost bought HGW harnesses. Almost...

 

Here's some progress on the pit.

 

[Wingco57]

Jeroen,

Before closing everything up you must have figured it out how to mount it. The

Point of fixation must be sturdy enough to take the weight. Even though it is not

that heavy.

[James H]

Mind if I plagiarise the work on the rear instrument panel?

 

Loving that pit. I've just chucked base paint in the interior of mine. Following this closely.

Well. I'm thinking of using one of those 3 point stands that lets you pose the plane.

The model sits on the points and does not need construction. Anyhow.... The fuse is glued now

 

@James: sure! Knock yourself out

[JeroenPeters]

First basic colors are on the pilot. 

Next up is detail painting and flesh tones in the face.

Final touch will be a matt coat.

 

[Dave J]

Looking Awesome Jeroen! I think I will have to build one of these when its out!

[RalphSarc]

Continuing to look fantastic and very glad the pilot found his head, lol!!

[Wingco57]

Looking great. Would be nice to wake up, sit down and getting dressed with a brush
cees

[Grant]

Great stuff Jeroen ... the pit looks great - you've added just enough detail IMHO.

[Steve Scanlon]

I really like this model and the detail is superb.

[One-Oh-Four]

Like, like, like!! 

[nmayhew]

looking very good - and yes it does look massive!

[Alan]

Any updates??? Dying to see one of these built!!!

Cheers

Alan

[rkranias]

[Alan]

Jeroen.... any new updates?? Would be cool to see one of these babes finished before the rest of us actually get our pre orders!!! Am dying to see this sucker done!

Cheers

Alan

[Paulster]

Get off the bicycle and back to the bench Jeroen.  

[JeroenPeters]

Hi Guys!

Sorry to keep you waiting. Here's where I'm at.

First layer of gloss black. Different shades of Alclad. RLM81 and RLM82 to the tail.

Much more shading to do and I'm going to weather the Sh*t out of it.

 

 

[James H]

Loving the multiple alclad panel shades. Real odd with that camo tail!     

[Grant]

Really cool 50 shades of Alclad (Hmm, that'd be a good book title) ..  Superb as always Jeroen!  Nice stand by the way, where's that from??
