Hi Again

I think I got it! At least this is the best result with internal shading I had to date. Thanks for all the help. The dilution of the acrylic solvent and the dabbing of the panels with a Q-Tip did the trick.

Also I have scratch-built that little access Ladder as seen in the picture from 1945.

Thanks again for your help.

Here are some pics:

Very good work Alex. Have you been checking that the fuselage halves still meet-up ?? - I always used to forget to do that :facepalm

Hello again,

I had a bit of free time and did some finishing in the assembly of the "beast" (not used to such big models), then proceeded with the masking and painting. I am still pleased with the results, the fuselage halves joined almost perfectly
I hope I don't just frek everything up in the postshading/weathering... let's hope.

a few pics. Nice weekend to all,

Alex

Man thats tiny ! But very well done ..........

It looks fantastic - sort of a Japanese Wellington. I really like it's 'look'. If Eduard do a mask set for this, I could see m'self buying one in the future...

Thanks a lot everyone. I really appreciate your support and comments.
I must confess that I have cheated: Ian, eduard does have a mask set for the Ki-67 in 1/72 and that is what I used. They also have a reduced PE set in colour (also used) and they had a much larger PE set in "black and white", which I have also used. Sadly the latter isn't available anymore.
Hopefully I'll get to finish the beast next week. I don't understand what you mean by "tiny"... I am not used to such big models.

Cheers everyone!
Alex
