Looking very good! I'm tuned in.
Wow ! Already at the painting stage... You are not wasting any time with this build. It looks very nice too. The fit of the parts look to be spot on. I can see myself getting one of these in the future. I have the 1/48 scale ICM He-111 and it has had a nice fit as well. The ICM company has definitely come a long way with their improvements.
Like Erik stated, I'm tuned in too !
Tolga @tolgaul and @uscusn, for one of my planned builds in this group I haven´t found information about one certain "device" attached underneath some Invaders. Probably you know something about it?
By the way, Tolga, maybe of interest, it seems "Brown Nose" changed codes during the war and, even more interesting, it lacks a bottom turret.
Do you think it was removed or was it never installed?
Hi Wolfgang Yes I have seen these ones few years ago, made some research but any result. Unfortunately I could not get any information. It seems like a kind of radar or something else. For the Brown nose. Very few pictures of Brown nose exist in the web, it s possible that they changed color and some armement during this period. I will built this as overall olive drab.
And the painting begun:

Very nice paintjob here! - and I like the light in your photostudio 🙂
Excellent job, Tolga! Amazing multishade.
Thanks Spiros and Eric, I usually use sunlight for my pictures.
Some progress after a short vacations break Decals applied. I have used Aeromaster s #48-615 decal set. PS: ICM s decals not worked well. I had to use the stencils from an old Monogram kit

Hi Tolga! Your Invader looks amazing!
This looks amazing... and the pre-shading on the panel lines also looks very good. It brings out the different tones in the green very nicely.
Tolga, you made an overall green pop with the weathering process you employed. Well done, then the markings really make this even a winner. Excellent work. I will build this version with the same markings down the road, but will start on the latest ICM kit with the glass nose. Most likely a 7th Chadwick or an overall black B-26C. Still up in the air. Now for the final finish.
The WOW-factor is high on this one Tolga (@tolgaul)! that is some awesome paintwork, and the markings look really great. Can't wait to see the final product.
@fiveten Spiros @lgardner Louis @uscusn Chuck @airbum Erik Thanks for your comments.
