Old Collingwood Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share #513 Posted May 3, 2020 I decided to do a bit more on mossie as the tv was rubbish, so I thought I would have a go at the props and spinners, these are a Three piece unit considting of the prop a backing plate and the spinner cap, first I cleaned up the prop and discovered it was a bit to thick and lacking shape, simple adjustment by samding it to reduce its thickness while also giving it some shape. I then dry fitted it.

Old Collingwood Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share #520 Posted May 4, 2020 Evening all, I managed to get more done on the fuselage today - I started by taking off the camo mask and checked the finish, it turned out ok nice and smooth, next stage was to find the front demarcation line for the Black/camo split, I made a mark then ran a mask line towards the tail using Tamiya tape, I did the same both sides then made a curve in front of the tail using blu tack, then I filled in the top camo section with paper and went in the garden and sprayed with my Tamiya rattle can. It was then put inside my box to de gas and harden.

Old Collingwood Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share #530 Posted May 5, 2020 So, more work on her this eve, I put a few coats on the props - I decided to use Flat Nato Black as its actually like a dark flat Grey, I put a few coats on followed by a few watery coats to smooth out the finish, this was put aside then I put some blu tac inside the spinners attached a stick and went outside and sprayed then the same Black as the fuselage. They were then put inside the goody goody box to dry. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share #531 Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Here you go - I know you couldn't wait😉 It looks worse because of the poor kitchen lighting, the rear section under the tail is blu tac, and I assure you the finish is smoother than the phone makes out (and will be with some cloth polishing - prior to spraying a flat coat) OC.

Old Collingwood Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share #536 Posted May 6, 2020 After a day in the yard charging me Vit D cells I then de masked the fuselage - not too bad, demarcation line had a bit of a ridge so I attacked it with smooth wet and dry soon sorted, then I noticed a bit of camo that needed correcting - so back on went the masking using tape a bag and blu tac and a quick re spray over a tiny area, I then put it away to dry. I then turned my attention to the props and spinners - the spinners was a bit awkward getting a smooth sprayed finish as I kept getting some over spray, so plan number Two hand paint with Nato Black - so this was done, I put them aside and tipped the props yellow after masking.
