CTA Entry - Bagge - Fiesler Storch 1/35

Looks really nice. When you pull the tape try at 45 degrees back and 45 degrees inboard or outboard. Should stop pull ups.

Not much done today, masked and sprayed the base green on the fuselage and then the yellow on the underside of the wingtip, don't look to much on the overspray... i will deal with that tomorrow :bang head

Really nice work Mats
 
Real nice work, coming along great!


I hope the paint don't follow the masking tape when i pull it off...

are you using acrylics?

I use these on 99% of all my builds - primer of choice = Tamiya rattlecan Fine white

Acrylics = Gunze / Mr Hobby

never any paint lift.

let the acrylics cure for a day or two, you will find you never have to worry about paint lift.

Thanks for the tips and i will try those out :)
Gonna continue painting now so pics coming later :)

I had problems getting the masking tape off of the landinggear, but i managed without breaking something, need to touch up the paint a little here and there, now a yellow stripe around the tail section and decals :coolio

Opps, not a big issue to fix, mask off that trailing frame then squirt some more paint over it, you'll be good. Or if you have some decal paper, paint it the same color and cover the frame. Thinking of doing that on my two aircraft build I have in progress.

Nice work Mats, the frame around the canopy is nice and crisp, well done! :pilot
 
Looking good,Mats! (y)

This is looking really good bagge. Can't believe how much you've got done.

I think the base is a great idea with the figures. (y)
 
Thanks :)
Paddy i think i stay on the ground, with one flying thingie now and then :soldier
Started with the decals today, the zwastika on the tail was a pain because it comes in two parts :blink
Guess they can't print it out for some law reason in germany, the finns used it to during the war so what about those? they were blue but otherwise no difference (the finnish markings in this kit is black so that's not correct)
