So I've been lamenting the lose of the weekends painting today due to a broken airbrush. Worked on the guns and painted the prop boss. Reading the forums and one of the threads tweaked my mind. What airbrushes do you use. Well My new Badger Velocity Rage is my fave and hors de combat. My Tamiya hg is dead. I have a German one that is for very fine work. And a Paasche. Well thinks I what was the problem with the paasche. Its really only good for big areas. Dont I have a big area to paint? Yes I do . Doh!!

So here you go. 2nd colour on. Tomorrow or next day will paint the red.

Prop boss

And checked by QA

Not yet. I used my Paasche that I'd forgotten about.

Woah! Where's me shades :laugh: I don't normally do WWI but I do like that plane - I have an Eduard 1/48 dual combo in the stash kindly given to me by Ultra Hog - I just need some courage to build them

Okay a bit of painting. Dry fit of exhaust and glued the struts to the bottom wing. Have top in place to ensure alignment. Man does the top wing add weight. Have more touch ups where I cut wing from sprue and struts from sprue.
My thread came in from WNW but the decals where not there. Waiting for a reply from them.

Is the top wing solid like the Pup was? I was scared that the struts and wing would be misaligned but WnW sure does their homework in the engineering dept!

Looking good James!
