Back to modeling after a vacation with the family. This model has been a lot of work and I have almost given up on it a couple times. But I must push on so I can get back to my Japanese planes.
I got the windscreen mounted and masked. That was a pain as I did it by hand. Then primed in black and sanded smooth.
Then a coat of gloss black. It didn’t come out as glossy as I wanted probably from the black primer. I usually shoot the gloss black directly on the plastic as the primer for the silver but this model had a lot of flaws I wanted to check with primer first.
Anyways then Alclad aluminum and polished aluminum followed. I lightly sanded and polished the model as it had a little bit of rough texture. I might spray some more polished aluminum on the fuselage to make it more shiny.
The decals don’t look usable so I’m still trying to figure out what color scheme I’m going to do. Hopefully I can find something that I can do with paint masks. Invasion stripes would be cool to as I have never attempted that before. Until next time. Cheers
