I like the 45...

As always, great stuff Phil. Have you got time to do a clear coat in the next 7 days?

Cheers, Alex

So the story so far, the model has been given a second coat of primer over the lining tape, this way subsiquently rubbed down with 400 wet n dry paper wet. The rivets were then burn into the paint using special tips that I turned up on my lathe. Approximately 5000 rivets were added. The model was then rubbed down with 400 wet again, this is to remove the paint around the rivets that blisters up. I then removed the lining tape.

The model is now in the paint shop and has had it's first coat of the base colour (pale yellow). After its had its second coats then I will mask up the underside and the pale yellow areas of the camo ready for the second colour medium grey, then the final colour olive drab.

Ok this has been a bit of a wind up for Steve who is the owner of this flash. I hope you like it mate. This what was are basing the scheme on, it's going to be an aggressor US Marines VMET-101 (03) s/n 776081 futuristic scheme, not scale, I have change the original scheme from the L39 (pictured) as I wanted the lines on the fuse to be more slanted due to model being a fast looking model.

The grey now painted is now time for more masking also a little accent from the l39 that I liked, the base of the tiger strips on the top of the fin.

Some photos of the de masking and getting ready for the next batch of masking

With any paint job there is always a little bit of touching up that needs to be done

Out-flipping-standing! The work involved in just taping that off is just crazy in itself....

Now to the final stage of masking and painting, then on to weathering and clear coat, I think flat clear coat will suit this colour scheme

It looks fantastic! Not wanting to be negative but a real shame about that rudder arm cut out in the fin, though.

Hi Andrew, yes it does look crap but we have a plan, there is a cover which will be fitted after the linkage has been fitted. Thanks for asking.

Excellent! That will clean things up nicely - the scheme looks so good it would have been a shame not to do something with the cut out. Really looking forward to seeing pics of it all together, the scheme really suits the plane.

Ok seriously back to the model, the no step zones are now masked off. I little time consuming but worth it in the end.

At last the final bit of painting before the weathering. It's always a good idea to make a chart to explain which colour goes on what colour
