Lovely shade of grey, Jack
did you mask the "windows"?

Ken is right, it tends to go to orange, hardly fire engine red, Jack (I have just recalibrated my monitor - 4K) Nice build by the way. Something not so violent ...! It could be the setting of your camera ... white balance ...

Well, now that we've gotten the approval of our armchair CNO on the correct hue for the helo, I can proceed with the assembly.
Upper fuselage
Main body assembled
Added the canopy
Some touch up painting - stabilizer fins added to tail section
Painting the canopy frame by hand was a challenge and a half. Tried masking but that didn't work too well, so I resorted to free-handing it.
And now back to the incarceration cell, errr, workshop

Cockpit is better than no cockpit - imagine the pilot trying to fly without it🙃

cog got a reaction from GrandpaPhil in Messerschmitt bf 109G cockpit by cog - Eduard (brassin) - 1/48 - FINISHED
Since I have little time, I left my SMS Seydlitz in her mothballs and picked up this little build.
The only thing I can say: "it is small!!!" and it is almost finished before you start it
Resin and PE ready for painting
Base coat "Black base" with chrome - both AK extreme metal colours - enamels
Base colour is RLM 66 some details filled in with colours, and metal PE which has been prepainted - Vallejo acrylics - added a bit of wear and tear
Getting the PE, resin, and plastic fitted took the better part of an eveing, painting took in all about 1.5 - 2 hours. Quite a fun model to build despite it's size, lot's of detail on the resin parts too
Cheers

You give me to much credit Lou, thank you
Hello Assat, thank you for your praise. It is all Eduard. They have "Brassin" kits which you can use to enhance your - mostly - airplane kits, and these are full of detail. A combination of resin, plastic, and PE (both metal and brass).
Have a look at their BRASSIN kits
As for tutorials, I am still learning, but this bloke does make nice tutorials PLASMO

April's Fool joke: it would be quite an experience, if they could start the Diesel engine as well.....

Easy for you Aussies to say, but in Europe we do not have that much head room ...
Nice solution to a "tiny" problem. So if you take off the masts anyway, you are finished now ?

Lol, Carl this would mean going to waste the 150 m of rope I spent weeks making! Maybe best to press on...Indeed, Mark, not all countries are continents!😄 In England we are like sardines in a can.
