  1. Well I got some paint laid down tonight JN Green Tamiya Acrylics over AlClad Silver 101 on the whole plane.I was spraying the Future straight was pooling up on the forks I was kinda hmmmn?I usually find that being the mixture to thick so I added alcohol turned cloudy Nope out it goes.I then added MrColor Leveling thinner stayed clear and what a difference and it dried to the touch so fast.The chipping will start after the the decal have been laid and sealed. The P-47 just to show the George was about 85/90% that of a P-47!
  2. Liking the scheme Andy some very Nice work!She will stand out like that Canary amongst the crows once in the cabinet.
  3. Stuff like that can **** you off Rob nice save though....perseverance.
  4. Looking good there Craig.
  5. This has been moving slower than expected on my part being the kit fits so well together.The belts from RB were lets say a bit of a challenge or maybe I been spoiled by Quintas?I spent three nights doing these belts one night just walking away....The pics I wish I would of looked at one last time before assembly being a little fuzzy.The wing is glued,canopies masked and working the LG's now.I am hoping things start moving a little bit quicker.
  6. I have gotten a the copit just about finished only thing left now is the bottles behind the seat.The two yellow handles on top of the main control are PE from a 1/48 kit with white glue then painted.The AC on display here in the US shows two red and three yellows bent inward.I have AM seatbelts in the stash/wall just need to locate.
  7. The few pictures I have seen on the net it's not so heavily flake like the rest I'll keep studying got plenty of time.
  8. I have noticed Chris on this plane the wear/flaking is not your regular Japanese aircraft it seems to originate at the seam(s) itself of spar joints 🤨
  9. Chris if not to much hassle post some pics interested in the chipping these planes were not a Zero with tons of it those card guys are usually quite realistic.I plan to paint the whole plane black,silver then the green and chip from there.
  10. I started this evening one of my favorites of the Japanese Army much their version of the P-47 in my book just has that bulky look about it.I painted the interior colors Tamiya Interior Japanese Green 71 very close to MrHobby 23 letting that part dry overnight but I could not stop there.The fuselage builds like a ship model with three bridges that really align and stabilize the fuse.I also went ahead and started the tail,tailplane and the landing flaps the model just builds like many little sub-assemblies!I rather like!I will probably have the copit finished tomorrow.
  11. I thought I share a build I did as a quick GB for another site main thing was using some AM decals out the collection other than that she is OOB guys.The whole plane was covered in Alclad Light Sheen for metal surfaces it seems to work well.I did have a couple of snafus on the decals one the prop and the other was fixed with paint.I was going to Tamyia black panel wash the plane but the yellow just said "No" to me just thinking to stark.Well I hope it somewhat measures up looks good enough to hit the cabinet the last P-51D went to someone else's house it was that or the trash can!!
  12. She looking good Rob and we see the real job comes in handy here also tools tools tools w/precision .
  13. What was the purpose of the sand?I have never used a lathe and have thought maybe one day.🤨
