Administrators JeroenPeters Posted May 23, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted May 23, 2019 I have a selection of watch springs. Perfect to replicate the spring in the pit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BevanBrooks Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Great stuff Jeroen! Dumb question....., is it original German paint on the real thing? Cheers Bevan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 If I may help with the answer She arrived unpainted as found and later experimental camouflage was applied in the US. as found loading Painted and sealed in deposit EDIT: Also check out the damage at the connecting edge caused by careless manipulation. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators JeroenPeters Posted May 26, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted May 26, 2019 Thnx for all the reference guys! Almost finished up the pit. Only seatbelts and the canopy release lever to go. Started work on the gear. Cleanup up the parts and as you can see i got the resin flattened tyres. The NASM version does not have it’s wheels installed, but i will on mine. Also bought some new AK weathering pencils today and eager to try them out. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRob Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Great work Jeroen, weathering looks very convincing. I use dozens of differently coloured pencils in my builds but having none of the AK ones, I'm interested if and how they are different from the normal stuff. Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Rob I normally use Prisma pencils or LYRA Super Ferby pencils. These are up there with them. They're supposed to react well to water as well, so I'll try that this weekend. The thing i really like are the colours. Many cool earth tones that work well with military colours and subjects. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators JeroenPeters Posted June 3, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted June 3, 2019 Cutting away the right engine nacelle cover. You can’t follow panel lines for this but need to study the photo reference. and as you can see i closed off the gun ports since the NASM example doesn’t have any. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
