All I have to do now is figure where Ill go from here :bang head
 
Hey Paul, good start. I bet you're talking about making a mess with the silver. That always seems the case with silver and my builds.
What is the black and yellow twin ? I do not recognize that one. :idonno

Cheers, Christian B)
 
Been looking at that twin. Looks like a Bug Smasher. A Beech Expediter to me except that is a twin tail and the pic is a single tail. Wonder what it is also.

Yeah, can't quite put my finger on it either. Don't believe it to be a twin Beech but it does have that rugged Beech family look. :hmmm
 
Nope not a Beech. Its a Cessna T-50. Sky King, but you may not be that old to remember Sky.
It wasnt the silver that I spilled it was the gloss black bottom coat. :bang head
 
Well, there's one more reason to not like NMF.... :rotf and that would also explain why it does not totally look like a Beechcraft product.
Interesting airplane though.

Hey Phil, haven't had time the last several days to catch up on things. the Alclad looks good. Think the OD could have had a finer demark on it. Not bad though, did something react with the Alcad behind the canopy on the left side?
 
Nice start Phil, a good reliable standard does the soul good.

I think some crossed wires happening here MP !!
 
Uncrossed Phil, yeah Philw, light helps a great deal. I can see some weathering where i thought the alcad was blemished.

Looks good buddy! (y)
