Members Mikester Posted May 8, 2016 Members Share Posted May 8, 2016 This build is really looking good. I'm amazed that you're brave enough to paint without the wings being permanently affixed to the fuselage! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolboxx Posted May 8, 2016 Author Share Posted May 8, 2016 This build is really looking good. I'm amazed that you're brave enough to paint without the wings being permanently affixed to the fuselage! Thank you Mikester, I couldn't get the wings to fit exactly on dry fit ( fuselage) without the need for filler on the top seam. But if I dry fitted wings not on fuselage no filler was needed, but then I had the Delamere's of how much work would I have doing it this way, all I have had to do was remove a very small amount from the main spine and the wings slot in nicely. Also a great way to paint and wether this way. But I am a little apprehensive fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolboxx Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 WOW! Spectacular!Thank you FarEast, I've just found you're WNW wow too! Â Really WOW!!!! Just love your painting scills!! Arno Thank you colt6, the feelings mutual my friend. Â That looks sweet as ! The mottling looks a treat. How did the join with the wings go underneath? Â Great scheme choice BTW. Â Cheers Bevan. Cheers Bevin, the underneath was a nice fit, the only problem is the slight over bite near the wing radiator vents. You can see it, in the last pic,. I have seen this filled and cleaned up smooth, but I am not to worried about this I used 5 min apoxy glue for each wing after existence dry fitting, would I do it again this way... Yes... but only if the top seam was not spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis.E Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 What a stunning and well observed peice of work Darren! You really have nailed that finish mate! What colors are you using for your filters? I can see browns and greys...would this be right Darren? I now have a trumpy 24 scale G-2 to go with my Revell 32 scale G-6, and I really want a finish on my projects similar to yours.
