Thanks guys, and thanks for following along! I’ll leave it here for now, maybe I’ll link it from the group build. I made a trip to the hobby shop this morning for tape...imagine that ...stupid invasion strips 🙂
Mike also runs Model Car World and produces his own line of Military enamels and lacquers. I got to talking to him about the Sea Blue dilemma and he pointed me at his SB lacquer. I laid down a layer of light blue Tamiya to help with under shading and on it went and it’s spectacular paint. After about 15 minutes it was dry as a bone. So, on went some decals. There are still plenty of stencils remaining but it’s looking like the movie. More soon!
