Scale-Master Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 I have the body painted and decaled. Now it is onto painting the molded in engine/bay detail. The wings are built up too, all photoetched brass.
curt raitz Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 who is manufacturer of this kit? really nice casting detail on the engine, etc may have to get back into 1/43rd scale nice lookin model so far
Monty Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 The engine bay alone contains a gold mine in detailing potential, and considering who's doing the build, we'll get to see that happen. Let's see those red and blue anodized fittings!
martinfan5 Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 Anticipation ... Is what waiting is causing for us
Scale-Master Posted February 26, 2012 Author Posted February 26, 2012 This one is a Starter brand kit. The interior is pretty much done…
Scale-Master Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Wheels and tires are almost done; I just noticed some silvering on the lettering, too much handling no doubt… Now for the fun part. I started with a base of dark gray. My plan is to paint the deeper stuff and back my way out. Still plenty more to do. It is slow going as I need to let each layer dry before building on it.
Scale-Master Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 The engine bay painting is mostly done, time to move on to the suspension and other assembly details…

Scale-Master Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 They are molded in on this one, (as are all the underhood details). I just painted them.
