    Nice job on the props, my friend @lis! The superchargers will fit nicely after some sanding.

    I waste a lot my modeling time to three time repainting wheels struts. Some imperfections because of quite old moulds.

    Today I worked with props. A lot of imperfections at the end… but I don’t have motivation to repaint it third time.

    Stages of painting. New for me was made post shadeing. During fitting wings I support fuselage with tape to avoid brakeing seams. And it Works 😃

    The OD looks really nice, Bernard @lis
    Good idea to use the tape to prevent the fuselage from breaking.
