Do these doors come with the engine or have you done a total scratch build on them (as in cut them out and made new ones)? 3

I did cut them out and detailed the inner of those.. Eduard should do a good job to produce these as well in the engine set! 3 1

Rowdy Posted February 7, 2021 Author Posted February 7, 2021 Did some paint test on this one today. I used Mr.Paint RLM 74 with a shade of RLM 70 on the panel lines. For the RLM 75 I used al little drop of black to highlight the panel lines. I also used black primer and choose not to marble this one because this particular aircraft had a really worn camo on it. Please note that the varnish and washes needs to be done Let the pics speak for them selfs, any comments and tips are welcome! 12
