Nice link with the superglue /talc method thanks for sharing ! She's looking like another of your great works in progress Roman,looking forward to the scheme you've picked out.

Nice link with the superglue /talc method thanks for sharing !

Yep,a good link. I do the CA/baking powder method. As soon as the powder hits the glue it goes hard and I just want to emphasise to anyone giving this a go that you need to sand quickly. I sand within a minute,after that the CA/powder mix will be harder than the surrounding plastic making blending it in more difficult.

It's a handy method.

Cheers

Hey Roman looking good man, I am new to scale modelling and bought my second model which is a 1/72 spitfire, just want to say you truly inspire me and keep up the good work, I hope I am as good as you some day lol, I messed up my first model which is why its not finished hhaha I glued everything on before painting the fuselage silly me, but now I learn from watching you! Much thanks, hopefully I can find time to finish my first model then start my spitfire, time is short when you have a baby to look after hehe.

Thanks

Roman i have decided not too look at your spitfire ever again.This is solely a jealousy thing on my part,as your spit looks amazing compared to what mine is,truly amazing build.

Good heavens Roman. When I built one of these it took me ages to get to this stage. Good work !

[Guest]

thx all

primer is up

I'm still strugelling what to do with decals

Have no aftermarket, have no decal paper... dont have a clue how to make ones...

try to buy decal paper but on one store says choose country: Yugoslavia (what does not exist for a 20 yrs) and another shope dont have any country outside EU...

Then I have 3 options: spray all decals bymyself? or make aluminium spit with decals what I have (Brit) but will not be accurate or third choice to do how is on instruction sheet...

When primer will dry out, I will decide

Cheers,

Roman
