+1 for the cannons here but very nice overall

Right then I thought I would just throw a bit of Azur blue on the undersides and let that cure for a day or so while I get on with something else.

Its a bit "blue" at the moment, still wet, I found it dulls down a bit as it dries.
I cleaned the Airbrush and all that then discovered that I have forgotten the U/C doors and the tail wheel holder. Doh! (thanks Mike cant get that out my head again gerrr. (Oh! doughnuts).
No I don't know why I painted the U/C bay first either. (think I forgot to mask it off lol. So that's a redo.)
Now off to fight with a fence..

Fence won its blowing a good un right now!

[Ian M]

Wet AND windy. Who'd have guessed it!
After a minor explosion in a masking tape factory, I got some colour on the topside. So a bit of time for that to cure then camo time...

Hurricanes are a pain in that you cant put the canopy on until after you have painted... I guess you could paint the bit at the rear of the cock-pit first, where's the fun in that though?

Coming on nicely Ian. Looks a detailed kit.

Its pretty good Steve. Not a fan of the separate door though. prefer to have the choice to leave in place or cut out. Otherwise a great little kit to build.

[Geoffers]

Nice progress Ian, coming together very nicely :thumb2:

Hit a bump in the road. Broke the cannons off. Burger!
I have ordered some nice brass ones and while I was at it a set of masks. Been gardening a lot this week and my fingers are not doing to well at holding things, like scalpels and apparently model airplanes. I think I'll take a we pause until the postie comes. some time next week.

Unlucky Ian
