Hi Ian

Wow, that is one gorgeous Lightning!

Beautiful metal finish and the wash looks perfect to me.

Cheers

Looks lovely. NMF Lightenings really do it for me...

looks like i will have to have a chat with you.

I haven't tackled a plane with a silver base paint as it looks so difficult.

i want to build the b17 but silver?

well done that looks fantastic.

Nice work mate. Paint looks great and built up nicely.

Great build Ian , I really must get round to mine , but Alclad scares the crap out of me ! Trouble is , with the Lightning being such an icon , I really want to do it justice, so until I'm satisfied I can get a top class NMF I'll leave it in the stash! cheers tony

Thanks chaps.

Steve: you just ask away.

Tony: Its only paint! Very thin delicate paint but its only paint, well lacquer actually. I know you can paint.

Super work Ian. Glad the burned out effect was temporary, although I did read that you came close to torching the thing.
