For the April competition have decided the background story to this model and how to go about making it ( Neil thinks the background story is strange and wonders what I will do to one of his beloved Spitfires - hohohho)I have some roundels, I'll bring them along next meeting.
First coat of humbrol aluminium on the body parts - when dry will add some chipping medium and the camouflage colours to the bits, then remove most of them - then its on with the build
If anybody has a spare decal/transfer of 1/72 scale roundels and the letters "U and F" and the number "2" please let me know.
Declaring this as finished as it will ever be, some models just fight you all the time.Still looks OK.
I will bring you some 1/700 railings, but they will not be Japanese!Hope nobody notices!!
All transfers applied. just a coat of varnish to finish off.Be subtle.
I am still undecided about the weathering.
